It would be S, which is Sulfur

The atom that would gain two electrons to fill its valence energy level is S(sulfur)

This is because s (sulfur) is in atomic number 16 with 2.8.6 of [Ne] 3s^2 2p^4 electronic configuration. This implies that sulfur has 6 valence electron and therefore it require two electron to fill its valence energy level and obtain 18 rule electrons.

Explain the three types of cumbusion ??​
Alik [6]

Answer:

Complete Combustion

One of the types of combustion is Complete Combustion. Complete combustion occurs in an unlimited supply of air, oxygen in particular. Also, complete combustion is also known as clean combustion. Here the hydrocarbon will burn out completely with the oxygen and leave only two byproducts, water, and carbon dioxide.

An example of this is when a candle burns. The heat from the wick will vaporize the wax which reacts with the oxygen in the air. The two products of the reaction are water and carbon dioxide. In an ideal situation all the wax burns up and complete combustion takes place

2] Incomplete Combustion

Incomplete combustion takes place when the air is in limited supply. And as opposed to complete combustion it is otherwise known as dirty combustion. Due to lack of oxygen, the fuel will not react completely. This, in turn, produces carbon monoxide and soot instead of carbon dioxide.

An example is burning of paper. It leaves behind ash (a form of soot) as a byproduct. In a complete combustion, the only products are water and carbon dioxide. Also, incomplete combustion produces less energy than complete combustion.

3] Rapid Combustion

Another type of combustion is Rapid Combustion. Rapid energy needs external heat energy for the reaction to occur. The combustion produces a large amount of heat and light energy and does so rapidly. The combustion will carry on as long as the fuel is available.

An example is when you light a candle. The heat energy is provided when we light the candle with a matchstick. And it will carry on till the wax burns out. Hence it is a rapid combustion

4] Spontaneous Combustion

As the name suggests the combustion occurs spontaneously. This means that it requires no external energy for the combustion to start. It happens due to self-heating. A substance with low-ignition temperatures gets heated and this heat is unable to escape.

The temperature rises above ignition point and in the presence of sufficient oxygen combustion will happen. The reaction of alkali metals with water is an example.

5] Explosive Combustion

Explosive Combustion happens when the reaction occurs very rapidly. The reaction occurs when something ignites to produce heat, light and sound energy, The simple way to describe is it to call it an explosion. Some classic examples are firecrackers or blowing up of dynamite.

Identify each of the following household substances as a strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or non-electrolyte: salt solution
wolverine [178]

Answer:

Electrolytes are substances that can ionize in water. They could be acids, bases or salts as long as they give ions when they dissolve in water.

Explanation:

  • <em>Strong electrolytes</em> completely ionize when dissolved in water, leaving no neutral molecules. The strong electrolytes here are:<u> salt water</u>, <u>baking soda (NaHCO3) solution.</u>
  • <em>Weak electrolytes</em> do not completely dissociate in solution, and hence have a low ionic yield. Examples of this would be<u> vinegar </u>and <u>bleach </u>(which could be sodium hypochlorite or chlorine, which are weakly dissociated).
  • <em>Non-electrolytes </em>will remain as molecules and are not ionized in water at all. In this case, <u>sugar solution is a non-electrolytes</u>, even though sugar dissolves in water, but it remains as a whole molecule and not ions.

Calculate the number of moles of a gas that is present in a 7.55 L container at 45°C, if the gas exerts a pressure of 725mm Hg.
vovikov84 [41]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of moles of gas present is 0.276 moles

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = 725 mm Hg

V = Volume of the gas = 7.55 L

n = number of moles of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of the gas = 45^oC=(45+273)K=318K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

725mmHg\times 7.55L=n\times 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 318K\\\\n=0.276mol

Hence, the number of moles of gas present is 0.276 moles
