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 metal has the largest atomic radius in period 4 (78 points)
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The element potassium(K) with atomic number 19 has the largest atomic radius ( around 225 picometers ).

Explanation:

There is the general expected decrease from left to right with increasing nuclear charge without quantum level expansion or increase in shielding and so pulling the outer electrons closer. The 3d block of metals (Z = 21 to 30) tend to be similar and in fact tend to go through a small minimum at Mn/Fe.

The potassium been on the left most part of period , has largest radius due to least nuclear pulling effect.

What is unique about the way that transition metals form compounds?
Alika [10]

Answer:

<u><em>A. They don't form compounds</em></u>

Explanation:

  • High density: The strong bonding between the atoms in transition metals cause them to be tightly held together, creating a high density. Colored compounds: Transition metals tend to form more colored compounds than other elements, either in solid form or dissolved in a solvent.
