The correct option is THE ELECTRON IN THE OUTERMOST ELECTRON SHELL.
Different levels of energy exist in the atom of an element and these levels are filled with electrons. The electrons in the innermost shell has the lowest energy level while the electrons in the outermost shell has the highest energy level. For an electron to increase its energy level, it has to move to an higher shell; and to decrease its energy level it has to move to a lower shell.
Are any of the answers capitalized? I believe it's Bb.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
A. <em>18 hydrogen atoms </em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Alkanes are group of hydrocarbon that are saturated</u></em>. They are saturated in the sense that each carbon atom has maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
- <em><u>The homologous series of alkanes has a general formula of CₓH₂ₓ₊₂.</u></em>
- Therefore,<u><em> an alkane with 8 carbons will have; (2×8) +2 = 18 hydrogen atoms. </em></u>Thus, the formula of the hyrocarbon will be; C₈H₁₈.
Explanation:
Standard volume=22.4 L
It means that 1 mole of any atom, molecule or ion occupies 22.4 L of volume at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure)
1 mole of CO2 = 22.4 L
Given volume = 224 mL = .224 L ( 1 L = 1000 mL)
No. of moles in .224 L = Given volume/Standard volume
= .224/22.4 = 0.01 mole
