It depends on the number of valence electrons required to make octet or duplet( in case of H)
. For example, Nitrogen(atomic number = 7) has electronic configuration(2,5) which means nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and requires 3 more electrons to complete its octet. After gaining 3 electrons from atoms of an element with less electronegativity than N, it forms nitride ion ().
Hope this helps.
The heat absorbed to raise temperature : Q = 31350 J
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
Given
m = mass = 150 g
Δt = Temperature difference : 50 °C
Required
Heat absorbed
Solution
Heat can be formulated
<em>
Q = m.c.Δt
</em>
The specific heat of water = c = 4.18 J/g °C
Input the value :
Q = 150 x 4.18 x 50
Q = 31350 J
Complete Combustion of any hydrocarbon produces CO2 and H2O ( carbon dioxide and water).
