I'm not sure what it asks, but it answers
- how many protons are in the nucleus
- how many electrons are in the atom
- where it sits in the periodic table
- If the periodic table is divided in the modern way, it gives a good indicator of whether you are speaking about a metal, a non metal or neither.
Answer:
C. They don't react with other elements to form compounds
Explanation:
The elements in Group 18 of the periodic table are called "inert", or noble gases.
These elements have their valence shell (the outermost shell of the atom) full of electrons, so they do not gain/give off electrons, and therefore, they do not react with other elements, so they do not form compounds.
In fact, normally the elements try to gain/give off electrons in order to fullfill their outermost shell (the valence shell). For instance, an atom that has 1 electron only in its valence shell, try to "give away" this electron in order to have its outermost shell completed. On the other hand, an atom which has 7 electrons in its valence shell tries to "gain" one electron in order to fullfill the valence shell.
Noble gases, instead, have already 8 electrons in their valence shell, so their valence shell is already completed, therefore they do not react with other elements, and therefore they are called "inert".
The answer is TiBr4 which is the formula
Answer:
Hydrolysis
Explanation:
The phosphate groups in an ATP molecule are joined forming an ester group. Esters can be formed when an alcohol (-OH) bonds with an acid (-COOH, or, in the case of phosphoric acid, 
). When this bonding occurs, the two molecules together lose a molecule of water, because the alcohol loses the hydroxyl and the acid loses an hydrogen, and the three atoms combine to form water. All the chemical bonds that are formed with the loss of a water molecule can also be broken using water, and this reaction is called hydrolysis.
