Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Valence shell is the shell present on the outermost core of an atom and electrons present in the valence shell are known as valence electrons.
If an atom has completely filled valence shell then it means the atom is not reactive in nature because it is already stable.
But when an atom has less than eight electrons in its valence shell then it means to attain stability the atom will readily attract electrons towards itself.
As the given element 1 has 8 electrons in its valence shell. Hence, it is not reactive in nature but element 2 has 6 valence electrons. So, in order to attain stability element 2 will readily attract 2 electrons from a donor atom.
Thus, we can conclude that element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.
Answer:
13
Explanation:
There are 13 moles O in a mole of Ca5(PO4)3OH because there are 13 oxygen atoms in every molecule of Ca5(PO4)3OH. Convert moles oxygen to number of atoms of oxygen. One mole is 6.022*10^23, so your conversion factor would be 6.022*10^23 atoms O/mol O.
Well ionic compounds are brittle because similar charges repel, which causes them to break usually occurring when a force is applied, like a hammer strike.
Answer:
Explanation:
Magnetic materials are always made of metal, but not all metals are magnetic. Iron is magnetic, so any metal with iron in it will be attracted to a magnet. Steel contains iron, so a steel paperclip will be attracted to a magnet too. Most other metals, for example aluminium, copper and gold, are NOT magnetic.
Answer:
E. Evaporation to dryness
Explanation:
E. - Evaporation to dryness is the best method for the recovery of solid KNO3 from an aqueous solution of KNO3.
(KNO3 is very soluble, and will violently decompose if overheated.)
Paper chromatography is for separation of different weight molecules in solution.
B. Filtration won't work on a solution
C.Titration would contaminate the salt with something else and is used
to determine concentrations
D. Electrolysis would destroy the salt
