Lewis Structure is drawn in following steps,
1) Calculate Number of Valence Electrons: # of Valence electrons in Mg = 2
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
---------
Total Valence electrons = 16
2) Draw Mg as a central atom surround it by two atoms of Iodine.3) Connect each Iodine atom to Mg, and subtract two electrons per bond. In this case we will subtract 4 electrons from total valence electrons. i.e.
Total Valence electrons 16
- Four electrons - 4
----------
12
4) Now start adding the remaining 12 electrons on more electronegative atoms i.e. Iodine.
The final lewis structure formed is as follow,
<em>The number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom of the element are;</em>
D. 29 protons and 29 electrons
<u>The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of each atom of that element.</u>
<u>Thus copper has an atomic number of 29, all atoms of copper will have 29 protons.</u>
Answer:it will sink in water
Explanation:
<h2>Answer:</h2>
<em><u>The kinetic energy of the air molecules in the cave is less than the kinetic energy of molecules outside the cave.</u></em>
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
The kinetic energy of any molecule is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.
Temperature of a gas is the heat energy provided to the molecules. As the temperature energy increase the molecules of the gas will move fastly and collide with each other.
So we can know the kinetic energy of molecules in the gas by measuring its temperature.
Hence the temperature of the cave is less than outside, so the kinetic energy will also be low.
