Answer : A Lewis structure is a graphical representation of the distribution of electrons around atoms. Mainly it illustrates the lone pairs of electrons present in molecules. They are also known as Lewis dot diagrams and mainly used for simple way to represent the configuration of atoms within a molecule.

The halogens are the five non-metallic elements found in group 7A of the modern periodic table. The term "halogen" stands for "salt-former" and compounds which contains halogens are called as "salts" as they produce salts when it reacts with metals.

All halogens are supposed to have 7 electrons in their outermost shells.

When a diatomic structure is formed by two elements of halogens, one electron from each halogen combines to form bonds between them.

The diagram is attached here in the answer.

30 pts! Sodium and water react according to the following equation. If 31.5g of sodium are added to excess water, how many liter
mihalych1998 [28]
First, calculate the number of moles of sodium present with the given mass,

              31.5 g of sodium x (1 mol sodium/ 23 g sodium) = 1.37 mol sodium

It is given in the equation that for every 2mols of sodium, one mol of H2 is produced.

           mols of H2 = (1.37 mols sodium)(1 mol H2/ 2 mols sodium)
                  mols of H2 = 0.685 mols H2

Then, at STP, 1 mol of gas = 22.4 L.
                
                 volume of H2 = (0.685 mols H2)(22.4 L / 1 mol)
                     volume of H2 = 15.34 L

Answer: 15.34 L

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Which of the following elements would lose an electron easily?

In particular, cesium (Cs) can give up its valence electron more easily than can lithium (Li). In fact, for the alkali metals (the elements in Group 1), the ease of giving up an electron varies as follows: Cs > Rb > K > Na > Li with Cs the most likely, and Li the least likely, to lose an electron
