Answer:
The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity
Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago
Explanation:
All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.
Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)
For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1
Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.
Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.
For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.
Answer:
D) 2-methylpent-2-ene
Explanation:
This is an elimination reaction of Halogenoalkane. 2-bromo-2-methylpentane when is heated with NaOH or NaOC2O5( sodium ethoxide) in ethanol will form alkene rather than alcohol.
2-methylpent-1-ene is minor product since double bond form with secondary Carbon rather than primary Carbon.
<span>The unit cell of amazonite is made of three pairs of faces, each pair different from the others. The faces are oriented at angles to one another that are not 90 degrees. The type of crystal this is is triclinic.
Triclinic crystal system is one of the seven crystal systems, with three basis vectors. </span>
The reason we cannot breath liquid water is because the oxygen used to make the water is bound to two hydrogen atoms and we cannot breath the resulting liquid
Answer:
- Volume is a physical property of an object.
- One unit of volume is the milliliter.
- Liquids and solids have constant volumes.
