The statement is true. The octet rule refers to the general rule of thumb wherein atoms of main-group elements tend to bond with other atoms in such a way that each atom possesses eight electrons (octet) in their valence shell. They tend to form the same electronic configuration as the noble gases. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. One of which is silane, SiH₄. A hydrogen atom only has 1 valence electron and needs another electron to complete its energy level. This is unlike other atoms, for example, carbon which has 4 valence electrons and needs to form 4 covalent bonds to fill its energy levels. Thus, 4 hydrogen atoms need only 4 more electrons. This is given by the silicon atom which has 4 valence electrons. Therefore, when a silicon atom is bonded to 4 hydrogen atoms, the resulting molecule, SiH₄, is a stable one.
Answer:
This question will be answered based on general understanding of how a controlled experiment should be:
The answer is: We must make sure we are testing/changing only one variable, and controling others
Explanation:
A controlled experiment is an experiment in which the independent variable is changed for a particular group called the EXPERIMENTAL group and unchanged for another group called the CONTROL group.
In a controlled experiment, only one variable should be tested while the others should be kept constant in order to have an effective result or outcome. This is the case in this question, the type of music or soil should be unchanged for each plant because the experimenter must make sure that he/she is testing/changing only one variable, and controling others.
Answer : This reaction is an exothermic reaction.
Explanation :
Endothermic reaction : It is defined as the chemical reaction in which the energy is absorbed from the surrounding.
In the endothermic reaction, the energy of reactant are less than the energy of product.
Exothermic reaction : It is defined as the chemical reaction in which the energy is released into the surrounding.
In the exothermic reaction, the energy of reactant are more than the energy of product.
Enthalpy of reaction : It is the difference between the energy of product and the reactant. It is represented as 
.
The balanced chemical reaction will be:
From the reaction we conclude that the heat energy is released during the reaction that means this reaction is an exothermic reaction.
Hence, the reaction is an exothermic reaction.
Answer:
I believe it is kinetic energy

The answer is 290.66 mL
Explanation:
The density of any substance including styrofoam is determined by two main factors: mass (atoms in the substance) and volume (space occupied). Moreover, the volume or mass of the substance can be calculated by using the density as these variables are related. Below I show the process:
density = mass / volume
mass = density x volume
volume = mass / density
volume = 21.80 g / 0.075 g/mL
volume = 290.66 mL
