Group 2 because the outer electrons ( also known as valence electrons) are 2 and that’s how we know which group it is in
<span>Pre-1982 definition of STP: 37 g/mol
Post-1982 definition of STP: 38 g/mol
This problem is somewhat ambiguous because the definition of STP changed in 1982. Prior to 1982, the definition was 273.15 K at a pressure of 1 atmosphere (101325 Pascals). Since 1982, the definition is 273.15 K at a pressure of exactly 100000 Pascals). Because of those 2 different definitions, the volume of 1 mole of gas is either 22.414 Liters (pre 1982 definition), or 22.71098 liters (post 1982 definition). And finally, there's entirely too many text books out there that still use the 35 year obsolete definition. So let's solve this problem using both definitions and you need to pick the correct answer for the text book you're using.
First, determine how many moles of gas you have. Just simply divide the volume you have by the molar volume.
Pre-1982: 2.1 / 22.414 = 0.093691443 moles
Post-1982: 2.1 / 22.71098 = 0.092466287 moles
Now determine the molar mass. Simply divide the mass by the moles. So
Pre-1982: 3.5 g / 0.093691443 moles = 37.35666667 g/mol
Post-1982: 3.5 g / 0.092466287 moles = 37.85163333 g/mol
Finally, round to 2 significant figures. So
Pre-1982: 37 g/mol
Post-1982: 38 g/mol</span>
Answer:
B. They bond identical atoms together
Explanation:
Metallic Bond: This is the bond that exists among the atoms of the metal. This is a type of electrostatic attraction between conduction electrons of metallic atom and their positively charged metal ions.
<em>(figure attached)</em>
Example:
Copper is a metallic element and its atoms consist of metallic bond among their selves.
Options A, B, D are not correct as all states for a kind of ionic bond formation.
Ionic bond:
It form by the complete transfer of electron from one atom to other
It is formed among two atoms of different electronegativities.
Also metals are electro-positive and non -metals are electro-negative so they form ionic bond.
Example is NaCl where sodium is a metal and Chloride is non-metal and they from ionic bond.
