The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

The element tin has the following number of electrons per shell: 2.8. 18, 18, 4. Notice that the number of electrons in the outer shell of a tin atom is the same as that for a carbon atom. Therefore, what must be true of tin? Tin is a polar atom and can bind to other polar atoms. Tin has a high molecular weight to give tin-containing molecules greater stabilty. All of the above Tin conform single covalent bonds with other elements, but not double or triple covalent bonds Tincan bind to up to four elements at a time

Answer:

Tin can bind to up to four elements at a time

Explanation:

Certain important points were made in the question about tin and one of them is that tin is an element in the same group as carbon hence it has the same number of valence electrons as carbon.

Carbon is always tetra valent. The tetra valency of carbon is the idea that carbon forms four bonds.

If tin has the same number of valence electrons as carbon, then, tin can bind to up to four elements at a time

Salt in crude oil must be removed before the oil undergoes processing in a refinery. The
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

\large \boxed{0.64 \, \%}

Explanation:

Assume you are using 1 L of water.

Then you are washing 4 L of salty oil.

1. Calculate the mass of the salty oil

Assume the oil has a density of 0.86 g/mL.

\text{Mass of oil} = \text{4000 mL} \times \dfrac{\text{0.86 g}}{\text{1 mL}} = \text{3440 g}

2. Calculate the mass of salt in the salty oil

\text{Mass of salt} = \text{3440 g} \times \dfrac{\text{5 g salt}}{\text{100 g oil}} = \text{172 g salt}

3. Calculate the mass of salt in the spent water

\text{Mass of salt} = \text{1000 g water} \times \dfrac{\text{15 g salt}}{\text{100 g water}} = \text{150 g salt}

4. Mass of salt remaining in washed oil

Mass = 172 g - 150 g = 22 g  

5. Concentration of salt in washed oil

\text{Concentration} = \dfrac{\text{22 g}}{\text{3440 g}} \times 100 \, \% = \mathbf{0.64 \, \%}\\\\\text{The concentration of salt in the washed oil is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{0.64 \, \%}}$}

Identifying Characteristics of Atoms
Anon25 [30]

Explanation:

The number of protons in an atom is the atomic number.

Mass number is the number of protons plus neutrons in an atom.

  Mass number  = number of protons + number of neutrons

Atomic number  = number of protons

Atomic number gives the symbol of the element

Number        Number      Atomic      Mass          Symbol

 Protons       neutrons     Number    Number

     A                    7                 B              15                C

     D                   E                 26             56               F

A, number of protons  = B

 Mass number  = protons + neutrons

          15  = protons + 7

          Protons  = 15 - 7  = 8

Atomic number 8 is for oxygen = C

Atomic number  = number of protons  = D = 26

Number of neutrons ;

          E =    Neutrons  = mass number - protons  = 56  - 26  = 30

Atomic number 26 is for Iron = F
