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.

When the following equation is balanced using the smallest possible integers, what is the number in front of the substance in bo
weeeeeb [17]

The balanced equation :

8Al + 3Fe₃O₄→ 4Al₂O₃ + 9Fe

You just have to look for which element is in bold because the question is not clear

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:

1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.

2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product

3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1

Reaction

Al + Fe₃O₄→ Al₂O₃ + Fe

give a coefficient

aAl + Fe₃O₄→ bAl₂O₃ + cFe

O, left=4, right=3b⇒3b=4⇒b=4/3

Al, left=a, right=2b⇒a=2b⇒a=2.4/3⇒a=8/3

Fe, left=3, right=c⇒c=3

The equation becomes :

8/3Al + Fe₃O₄→ 4/3Al₂O₃ + 3Fe x3

8Al + 3Fe₃O₄→ 4Al₂O₃ + 9Fe

One of the main advantages of Hydrogen as a fuel is that:
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

A fuel cell is defined as the electrochemical cell which converts the chemical energy of a fuel (often used hydrogen) and an oxidizing agent (often used oxygen) into electrical energy via a pair of redox reactions.

The reactions which occur in hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell are:

At cathode:  H_2+2OH^-\rightarrow 2H_2O+2e^-

At anode:  \frac{1}{2}O_2+H_2O+2e^-\rightarrow 2OH^-

As we can see that reaction of hydrogen gas with oxygen gas gives us the water as a product which can be used for other things and it also doesn't pollutes environment.
