Answer:

a) nitrogen

b) nitrogen =5

Oxygen = 6

Fluorine =7

Explanation:

Usually, if we have two or more elements in a compound, the central atom in the compound is the atom having the least value of electro negativity.

If we consider fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen; nitrogen is the least electronegative of the trio hence it should be the central atom of the triatomic molecule.

The number of valence electrons on the valence shell of each atom is shown below;

nitrogen =5

Oxygen = 6

Fluorine =7

Missing question:
Chemical reaction: H₂ <span>+ 2ICl → 2HCl + I</span>₂.
t₁ = 5 s.
t₂ = 15 s.
c₁ = 1,11 M = 1,11 mol/L.
c₂ = 1,83 mol/L.
rate of formation = Δc ÷ Δt.
rate of formation = (c₂ - c₁) ÷ (t₂ - t₁).
rate of formation = (1,83 mol/L - 1,11 mol/L) ÷ (15 s - 5 s).
rate of formation = 0,72 mol/L ÷ 10 s.
rate of formation = 0,072 mol/L·s.

Is anyone online 2 help,Sodium is a reactive metal.Why nd don't spam brainlest and thx is waiting answer it ❤️​
morpeh [17]
It is because sodium is one of the most reactive metals.

There is a reaction would take place between magnesium and sodium chloride.

The chemical reaction between these two metals is given below.

It is Mg + 2NaCl >> MgCl2. + 2Na.

The symbol of this chemical element is Na.

It has the atomic number of eleven


Hope this helps *smiles*
