explain how the number of valence electrons in atoms relate to their bonding with other atoms to form molecules ?????

1 answer:

5 0

valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outer shell. there can only be 8 electrons in the outer shell. The number of valence electrons can be used to determine how many bonds are needed.

For example: H2O

O (oxygen) has 6 valence electrons
H (hydrogen) has 1 valence electron

O needs 2 more electrons to be stable
H needs 1 more electron to be stable

O forms one bond with two H atoms to form H2O.

A solution of KCIO3 is prepared using 75 grams of the solute in enough water to make 0.250 liters of solution. The gram-formula

charle [14.2K]

Using the mass/volume percentage method for percentages of the solution, you simply divide the grams of solute by the volume of the solution and multiply by 100 to get your percentage.
(75.0g/250mL)•100 = 30.0% solute

A sample of nitrogen gas is produced in a reaction and collected under water in a graduated cyliner. The temperature is 26.3 oC

Rudiy27

The mass of nitrogen collected is mathematically given as

M-N2=0.025gram

<h3>What is the mass of nitrogen collected?</h3>

Question Parameters:

A sample weighing 2.000g

the liberated NH3 is caught in 50ml pipeful of H2SO4 (1.000ml = 0.01860g Na2O).

T=26.3c=299.3K

Pressure=745mmHg=745torr

Pressure of N2=745-25.2=719.8torr

Generally, the equation for the ideal gas is mathematically given as

PV=nRT

Therefore

719.8/760=45.6/1000=n*0.0821*299.3

n=0.00176*14

In conclusion, the Mass of N2

M-N2=0.00176*14

M-N2=0.025gram
