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.

OLEGan [10]
There are two force acting on an object that is being lifted. (1) the weight of the car, (2) the upward force. The difference of these force should be equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration. (This is the content of Newton's 2nd Law of Motion). If we let the lifting force be F,
                       F - (830)(9.8) = (830)(3.8)
The value of F from the equation is 11288 N.

Order the speed of sound through these materials from the slowest to the fastest.
Sholpan [36]

Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water

Explanation:

Step 1:

Speed of sound in water varies from 1450 to 1498 meters per second

Speed of sound in Hot Molten lead is approximately 1210 meters per second

Speed of sound in warm air is approximately 338.89 meters per second

Speed of sound in cold air is approximately 293.33 meters per second

Step 2:

In warm air sound travels faster than that of sound travelling nature in cold air.

∴ Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water

Speed of sound in cold air the slowest while Speed of sound in water is the fastest mean.
