It is C because the element x must reach an octet by forming covalent bonds; in each bond, it shares 1 electron, and as it needs 2 electrons, it must form 2 bonds;

I'm going to use rounded numbers to calculate the molar mass of water.
Water Molar Mass
- 2H = 2 * 1 = 2
- 1O = 1 * 16 = 16
- Molar Mass = 18 grams / mole
Moles of water
- given mass = 9.176 grams
- Molar Mass = 18 grams / mole
- moles = ??
Formula
moles = given mass / molar mass
moles = 9.176 / 18
moles 0.5098 Answer
Answer:
27.9 g
Explanation:
CsF + XeF₆ → CsXeF₇
First we <u>convert 73.1 g of cesium xenon heptafluoride (CsXeF₇) into moles</u>, using its<em> molar mass</em>:
- Molar mass of CsXeF₇ = 397.193 g/mol
- 73.1 g CsXeF₇ ÷ 397.193 g/mol = 0.184 mol CsXeF₇
As <em>1 mol of cesium fluoride (CsF) produces 1 mol of CsXeF₇</em>, in order to produce 0.184 moles of CsXeF₇ we would need 0.184 moles of CsF.
Now we <u>convert 0.184 moles of CsF to moles</u>, using the <em>molar mass of CsF</em>:
- Molar mass of CsF = 151.9 g/mol
- 0.184 mol * 151.9 g/mol = 27.9 g
Boron would have the lower first ionization energy.
Be: 1s2 2s2
B: 1s2 2s2 2p1 -> electron from the p orbital is easier to eject than than electron from the s orbital.
Isotopes are basically from the same element. In terms of subatomic particles of the element, the isotopes will then basically have the same number of protons. The electrons also have to be same in number given that the elements are in neutral charges.
We are then left with neutrons, which is one of the subatomic particles residing in the nucleus of an atom.
Thus, the answer is NEUTRONS.
