Answer: Number of valence electrons determine how fast or easy for an atom to gain stability. Either by gaining electrons or by losing electrons.

Group one and seven elements react fast because they only have one electron to gain or lose.

Explanation:

Number of valence electrons tell us the number of electrons an atom will gain or lose in order to attain stability in electron configuration.

All the elements in a particular group will have the same number of valence electrons as follows:

Group one - 1 valence electron

Group two - 2 valence electrons

Group three - 3 valence electrons

Group four - 4 valence electrons

Group five - 3 valence electrons

Group six - 2 valence electrons

Group seven - 1 valence electron

Group eight - 0 valence electron

Some elements are more reactive than the others because of the electron affinity, oxidation state and electronegativity of the atoms

For instance, elements in group 7 are more reactive than others because of their oxidation state and they have very high electronegativity.

Also, group one elements are more reactive because they only have one electron to loose.

LuckyWell [14K]

Since the frequency of sound in a medium is constant, therefore, the concert-goers would hear the low notes and high notes at the same time.

<h3>What is a dispersive medium?</h3>

A dispersive medium is a medium which spreads out or disperses a substance passing through it.

Since CO2 is a dispersive medium, it means sound waves passing through it would be dispersed based on wavelength.

The note of a sound depends on its frequency, the higher the frequency, the higher the note.

Frequency of sound is constant, therefore, the concert-goers would hear the low notes and high notes at the same time.

A circuit is made of a battery, a light bulb, and a 2 resistor. The battery has a voltage of 3 volts. When connected, the ammete
Monica [59]

Answer:

3ohms

Explanation:

From Ohm's Law

V = IR

V is that voltage = 3volts

I = current = 1amp

R = resistance in ohms

Putting those values into the above formula.

3volts = 1amp×R

Making R the subject

R = 3/1

R = 3ohms

The resistance of the light bulb is 3ohms.

Describe an example where materials are prepared as fluids so that they can be moved easily
den301095 [7]

Answer:

In general solids are easier to transport than liquids, but the above metal example is a valid one and the only other one that comes to mind is that of concrete. It is mixed as a liquid and transported as such, but then sprayed or laid down to dry and form a solid surface or filler.

The gamma ray released by each decay carries 140kev of energy. find the total energy e released by decays in the 2 hours.
olya-2409 [2.1K]
First, we would need to know the decaying isotope.
Next, we use the decay formula
A = Ao e^(-kt)
After determining the remaining amount after two hours, the decay reaction can be used to determine the number of gamma rays released. If the given is in terms of mole, then the total energy is
E = 140n KeV where n is the number of moles of gamma rays released
