Answer:

$Sr_3N_2$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the Lewis theory is based on the bonds formation between atoms via the valence electrons, we can verify the chemical formula of the compound formed by strontium and nitrogen by noticing that strontium has two valence electrons as it is in group IIA, for that reason, two nitrogens should be available for bonding. Therefore, since nitrogen is in group VA, it is said that three electrons are required to attain the octet (maximum amount bonded electrons), for that reason, three strontiums are should be available for bonding. In such a way, the formula should be:

$Sr_3N_2$

Regards.

1) This is a definition.

2) Protons are given by the bottom number (since atomic number = number of protons).

3) Neutrons = (mass number)-(atomic number), which are the top and bottom numbers, respectively.

4) Nuclear fusion involves combining two things together, which is only reflected by the last option.

5) This is a fact.

6) This is a fact.

7) This is a fact.

8) This is a fact.

9) The correct option is the explanation.

Complete and balance the following equations. If no reaction occurs, write NR:(d) ClF(g) + F₂(g) →

kumpel [21]

A reaction occurs between the two gases Chlorine monofluoride (ClF) and Fluorine (F₂) when they are added together and as a result of the reaction a compound named, Chlorine trifluoride (ClF₃) is formed.

The reaction which occurs by addition of Chlorine monofluoride (ClF) and Fluorine (F₂) is as follows -

ClF (g) + F₂ (g) = ClF₃ (l)

When one molecule of Chlorine monofluoride (ClF) reacts with one molecule of Fluorine (F₂) gas, both the gases react together to form one molecule of Chlorine trifluoride (ClF₃) which is a liquid. Therefore, the above reaction is already balanced.

Chlorine trifluoride (ClF₃) is a greenish-yellow liquid which acts as an important fluorinating agent and is also an interhalogen compound (compounds that are formed by mixing two different halogen compounds together). Other than it's liquid state ClF₃ also can exist as a colorless gas. This compound ClF₃ is a very toxic, very corrosive and powerful oxidizer used as an igniter and propellent in rockets.

Solving part-1 only

KMnO_4

Transition metal is Manganese (Mn)

Actually it's the oxidation number of Mn

Let's find how?

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x+1+4(-2)=0$

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x+1-8=0$

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x-7=0$

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x=+7$

x is the oxidation number
