stepladder [879]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

lead

Explanation:

As it is in group 4 so 4 electron In its outer shell

and you can find number of neutrons by taking

mass number - atomic number

207.2-82=124.2=125

hope it make sense:)

Complete the three words. The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has g....................... , l.............
fgiga [73]

Answer:Gained, Lost , Shared

Explanation:

The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has GAINED.................. , LOST....................... , or SHARED........................ , in forming a compound.

Oxidation state is defined as the  the total number of electrons that an atom gains or loses when forming a chemical bond with another atom.

----To form an ionic bond for example in NaCl, Na, with 11 electrons and one valence electron in its outermost shell donates or lose that valence electron to Chlorine  with 17 electron and 7 in its outermost shell. Therefore Sodium, Na acquires the +1 oxidaton state to become stable and Chlorine acquires the -1 oxidation state  to become stable  forming the  NaCl compound.

To form a covalent compound, There must be sharing of electrons between atoms.For example, in PCl3,  The  phosphorous atom with atomic number 15 shares its three unpaired electrons with the single valence electrons of three chlorine atoms. making the four molecules to attain stability with  Phosphorous having +3 and the chlorine atoms having -1 oxidation states

The evaporation of liquid water from the surface of Earth is an important step in the water cycle. How do water molecules obtain
Alex777 [14]
<span>Well, during the day, the water, as well as the surfaces surrounding the water, are heated by various thermodynamic processes: conduction, convection, radiation, etc. This in turn warms the water molecules in the lakes, streams, rivers, and oceans, thereby transferring heat (their kinetic energy) to the water molecules, which in turn receive that energy from the surrounding surfaces, or directly via radiation/insolation from the sun. When the water molecules attain enough energy, some of them attain enough energy to escape the surface of the liquid and enter the gas phase. Hence, as water is heated, more and more water molecules attain enough kinetic energy to enter the gas phase.</span>
