The answer is 7. Valence electrons are the electrons in the very last shell, so we need to look at the outer “circle” and count the electrons, or the little black dots. There are 7 in the last shell.
Maple syrup would be categorized under solutions. As it contains sugar which is very soluble in water, it dissolves completely in water depending on its solubility at that temperature making it impossible for the components to be filtered out. A solution is a homogeneous mixture.
Explanation:
1. Electrons surround the nucleus in defined regions called orbits.
2. The shells further away from the nucleus are larger and can hold more electrons.
3. The shells closer to the nucleus are smaller and can hold less electrons.
4. The closest shell (closest to the nucleus) can hold a maximum of two electrons.
5. Once the first shell is full, the second shell begins to fill. It can hold a maximum of eight electrons.
6. Once the second shell is full, the third shell begins to fill.
7. Once the third shell contains Eighteen electrons, the fourth shell begins to fill.
8. The arrangement of electrons in shells around the nucleus is referred to as an atom's electronic configuration.
B, millimeters because paper is really thin therefore it'd require small measurements for units.
