You just look at what vertical row that silicon is, and every element that is in the same vertical row as silicon will have the same lewis dot structure...and this applyes for most elements on the periodic table of elements.                        
 - C, Ge,Sn, Pb:                                                                                                  
all these elements are in the same column, and therefore have the same number of valence electrons

Answer:

Carbon (C), Germanium (Ge), Tin (Sn), Lead (Pb), and Flerovium (Fl)

Explanation:

Silicon is the element of fourteenth group and third period. The electronic configuration of Silicon is - 2, 8, 4 or 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^2

There are 4 valence electrons of silicon.

Only the valence electrons are shown by dots in the Lewis structure.  

As, stated above, there are four valence electrons of silicon, so in the Lewis structure, four dots are made around the silicon (Si) symbol.

Similarly, the other members of the group 14 have four valence electrons and will have same valence electrons as silicon.

<u>So, the elements are:- Carbon (C), Germanium (Ge), Tin (Sn), Lead (Pb), and Flerovium (Fl)</u>

What happens to the number of neutrons as you move across the table? <br><br> left to right
luda_lava [24]

Answer: The number of neutrons will increase as we move from left to right in a periodic table.

Explanation:

Atomic number is equal to the number of protons.

Mass number is the sum of number of neutrons and number of protons.

As we move from left to right, both the atomic number and mass number increases.

For example: As we move from Lithium to berrylium to boron to carbon to nitrogen to oxygen to fluorine to neon , the number of neutrons increase from 4 to 5 to 6 to 6 to 7 to 8 to 10 to 10.

Thus the number of neutrons will also increase as we move from left to right in a periodic table.

Answer:

6.67 moles

Explanation:

Given that:-

Moles of hydrogen gas produced = 10.0 moles

According the reaction shown below:-

2Al + 6HCl\rightarrow 2AlCl_3 +3H_2

3 moles of hydrogen gas are produced when 2 moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

Also,

1 mole of hydrogen gas are produced when \frac{2}{3} moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

So,

10.0 moles of hydrogen gas are produced when \frac{2}{3}\times 10.0 moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

<u>Moles of Al needed  = \frac{2}{3}\times 10.0 moles = 6.67 moles</u>
