Answer:

Metalloids are metallic-looking brittle solids that are either semiconductors or exist in semiconducting forms, and have amphoteric or weakly acidic oxides. Typical nonmetals have a dull, coloured or colourless appearance; are brittle when solid; are poor conductors of heat and electricity; and have acidic oxides.

9. In a period, do the number of shielding electrons change? Why do you think
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The nuclear charge increases, but the number of inner shielding electrons stays the same.  

Explanation:

Their shielding does not change, so the effective nuclear charge — the charge felt by a valence electron — increases.

The valence electrons are pulled closer to the nucleus, decreasing the atomic radius.

For example, consider the elements of Period 3.

\begin{array}{ccccc}& & \textbf{Number of} & \textbf{Inner} & \textbf{Valence}\\\textbf{At. No.} & \textbf{Symbol} & \textbf{Protons} & \textbf{Electrons} & \textbf{Electrons}\\11& \text{Na} & 11 & 10 & 1\\12& \text{Mg} &12 & 10 & 2\\13& \text{Al} & 13 & 10 & 3 \\14& \text{Si} & 14 & 10 & 4 \\15& \text{P} & 15 & 10 & 5\\16& \text{S} & 16 & 10 & 6\\17& \text{Cl} & 17 & 10 & 7\\18& \text{Ar} & 18 & 10 & 8 \\\end{array}

The number of protons increases as you go from one element to the next, but the number of inner electrons is constant.

Chemistry problem? Joey claims that Oxygen 16 and Nitrogen 16 are identical. Compare and contrast Oxygen 16 and Nitrogen 16. Ple
8_murik_8 [283]
oxygen 16 is a stable isotope and has a natural abundance of 99.762% 

nitrogen 16 is an unstable isotope with a half life of 7.13 seconds meaning it is nearly nonexistent

joey is probably thinking of nitrogen 14 which is a stable isotope and has a natural abundance of 99.6%
