Argon has 8 valence electrons. It's atomic number is 18, therefore, in the first shell there are 2, the second has 8 and the third also has eight.
Answer:
Nuclear Charge
Explanation:
As we move from sodium to chlorine across, there's increase in atomic number (protons). This also means there is increase in the valence electrons (The valence electrons is denoted by the group).
As the number of protons increases, the nuclear energy also increases. Due to this, the electrons are attracted more strongly and pulled closely to the nucleus.
The moles of oxygen required to burn Butane is 6 moles.
<h3>What is a Combustion Reaction?</h3>
A reaction in which fuel gets oxidised by an oxidising agent producing a large amount of heat is called a combustion reaction.
In this question
Butane is burnt with oxygen
Molar mass of C₄H₁₀ = (12.0×4 + 1.0×10) g/mol = 58.0 g/mol
Molar mass of O₂ = 16.0×2 g/mol = 32.0 g/mol
Balanced equation for the reaction:
2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O
Mole ratio C₄H₁₀ : O₂ = 2 : 13
The given mass = 54grams
moles = 54/58 = 0.93 moles
The mole of oxygen required =
0.93/ x = 2/13
0.93*13/2 = x
x = 6.045 moles
Therefore 6 moles of oxygen are required to burn Butane.

This liquid is sometimes colored alcohol but can also be a metallic liquid called mercury. Both mercury and alcohol grow bigger when heated and smaller when cooled. Inside the glass tube of a thermometer, the liquid has no place to go but up when the temperature is hot and down when the temperature is cold. Mercury is very reactive and works best. But mercury is also very a radioactive element. So, if you break the thermometer, you could get in trouble (radio active posoning) Alcohol work well, it is not radioactive and can't kill you.
Okay, hope I helped
