Which groups will lose electrons to satisfy the octet rule​

Chemistry
1 answer:
igor_vitrenko [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Atoms of metals tend to lose all of their valence electrons, which leaves them with an octet from the next lowest principal energy level. Atoms of nonmetals tend to gain electrons in order to fill their outermost principal energy level with an octet.

What is the mass of a 32.5-ml sample of ethanol? the density of ethanol is 0.789 g/ml.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

25.6 grams of ethanol in 32.5 ml of the substance.

Explanation:

The density of ethanol can be used as a conversion factor.  We know that:

Ethanol is 0.789 g/ml.  That becomes a conversion factor that we may write as (0.789 g/ml) and then convert either grams ethaanol or ml ethanol into the other unit.  We are given volume of ethanol:  32.5 ml.

Note that when we multiply (0.789 g/ml) by (32.5 ml) the ml unit cancels, leaving just grams.  That's what we want, so:

(0.789 g/ml)(32.5 ml) = 25.6 grams of ethanol in 32.5 ml of the substance.

Which choices are layers of the atmosphere?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Mesosphere

Stratosphere

Thermosphere

Troposphere

Exosphere

Explanation:

The exosphere refers to the farthest region of the atmosphere that gradually fades into space.

The troposphere is the lowest layer of atmosphere. It is the layer where weather changes occur.

The thermosphere is right above the mesosphere but just below the exosphere. It is the layer where photoionization/photodissociation of molecules occurs thereby creating ions. This largely owes to interaction of molecules in this layer with ultraviolet radiation.

The stratosphere is composed of gases. Prominent among them is ozone which serves as a blanket against the sun's ionizing radiation.

The mesosphere lies above the stratosphere but just below the thermosphere. Temperature decreases steadily with height in the mesosphere.

Choose a starting point in the water cycle and describe the process you would go through to move through the entire cycle.
Bogdan [553]
The water cycle describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. ... The cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere is a significant aspect of the weather patterns on Earth.
