7 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is Ca

Explanation:

Ne  has its octet completed so, this option is wrong. Neon is stable.

C  Carbon has 4 valence electrons not 2, it should lose 4 electrons to complete an octet, so this option is wrong.

N  Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons not 2 , so it should gain 3 electrons to complete an octet.

Ca Calcium is the right answer it has to electrons in its outermost shell, it have to lose 2 electrons to complete an octet.

A student places three ice cubes in a beaker and allows them to partially melt. if she measures the temperature of the water in
atroni [7]

She will most likely observe that the temperature does not change during melting because the heat absorbed is used to overcome intermolecular forces rather than to increase the kinetic energy of the particles if she measures the temperature of the water in the beaker.

Find the density of a cube on Earth that weighs 1.5 kg and has a side-length of 10 cm.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

1500kg/m^3

Explanation:

Formula:

d=m/v

Given:

m=1.5kg

v=1000cm^3

(The side length of a cube is always equal to the others)

Required:

d=?

Solution:

d=m/v

d=1.5kg/1000cm^3

d=1.5kg/0.001m^3

d=1500kg/m^3

Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤
