Answer:
Explanation:
3. The number of electrons and neutrons in an atom are 13 and 14, respectively. Find out the mass number, atomic number, valency, and symbol of the element.
For a neutral atom. number of protons =number of electrons=13
so since atomic number is the number of protons =13
mass number = protons + neutons =14+13 = 27
atomic number 13 is Aluminum (AL-(see periodic table)
The electronic structure for 13 electrons is 1s2s2p63s23p1
so Al has 3 electrons which are VALIENT and can react and when it loses the 3 it will have CHARGE OF +3
The general form would be
Reactants ---> Products
Answer:
A molecule's shape strongly affects its physical properties and the way it interacts with other molecules, and plays an important role in the way that biological molecules (proteins, enzymes, DNA, etc.) interact with each other.
Explanation:
The Great Oxidation Event (GOE), sometimes also called the Great Oxygenation Event, Oxygen Catastrophe, Oxygen Crisis, Oxygen Holocaust,[2] or Oxygen Revolution, was a time period when the Earth's atmosphere and the shallow ocean first experienced a rise in oxygen, approximately 2.4 billion years ago (2.4 Ga) to 2.1–2.0 Ga during the Paleoproterozoic era.[3] Geological, isotopic, and chemical evidence suggests that biologically produced molecular oxygen (dioxygen, O2) started to accumulate in Earth's atmosphere and changed Earth's atmosphere from a weakly reducing atmosphere to an oxidizing atmosphere,[4] causing many existing species on Earth to die out.[5] The cyanobacteria producing the oxygen caused the event which enabled the subsequent development of multicellular forms.
