Referring to the octet rule, atoms attempt to get a noble gas electron configuration, which is eight valence electrons. Sodium has one valence electron, so giving it up would result in the same electron configuration as neon. Chlorine has seven valence electrons, so if it takes one it will have eight (an octet)

Answer:

In covalent bonding, the octet rule is important because sharing electrons gives both atoms a full valence shell. As a result, each atom can consider the shared electrons to be part of its own valence shell.

How many decigrams are in 4.6 decagrams?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{460 dg}}

Explanation:

1. Convert decagrams to grams

\text{Mass} =  \text{4.6 dag} \times\dfrac{\text{10 g}}{\text{1 dag}} = \text{46 g}

2. Convert grams to decigrams

\\text{Mass} =  \text{46 g} \times\dfrac{\text{10 g}}{\text{1 dg}} = \text{460 dg}\\\\\large \boxed{\textbf{4.6 dag = 460 dg}}

Which of the following is a list of the minimum amount of data needed for determining the molar enthalpy of solution of KCl(s) i
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

 (C) Mass of KCl(s), mass of H20, initial temperature of the water, and final temperature of the solution

Explanation:

molar enthalpy of solution of KCl(s) is heat evolved or absorbed when one mole of KCl is dissolved in water to make pure solution . The heat evolved or absorbed can be calculated by the following relation.

Q = msΔt where m is mass of solution or water , s is specific heat and Δt is change in temperature of water .

So data required is mass of water or solution , initial and final temperature of solution , specific heat of water is known .

Now to know molar heat , we require mass of solute or KCl dissolved to know heat heat absorbed or evolved by dissolution of one mole of solute .

What<br>your events made Gautam Buddha to<br>go in search of the truth?​
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The Buddha (also known as Siddhartha Gotama or Siddhārtha Gautama[note 3] or Buddha Shakyamuni) was a philosopher, mendicant, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who lived in Ancient India (c. 5th to 4th century BCE).[5][6][7][note 4] He is revered as the founder of the world religion of Buddhism, and worshipped by most Buddhist schools as the Enlightened One who has transcended Karma and escaped the cycle of birth and rebirth.[8][9][10] He taught for around 45 years and built a large following, both monastic and lay.[11] His teaching is based on his insight into duḥkha (typically translated as "suffering") and the end of dukkha – the state called Nibbāna or Nirvana.

The Buddha was born into an aristocratic family in the Shakya clan but eventually renounced lay life. According to Buddhist tradition, after several years of mendicancy, meditation, and asceticism, he awakened to understand the mechanism which keeps people trapped in the cycle of rebirth. The Buddha then traveled throughout the Ganges plain teaching and building a religious community. The Buddha taught a middle way between sensual indulgence and the severe asceticism found in the Indian śramaṇa movement.[12] He taught a spiritual path that included ethical training and meditative practices such as jhana and mindfulness. The Buddha also critiqued the practices of Brahmin priests, such as animal sacrifice.

A couple of centuries after his death he came to be known by the title Buddha, which means "Awakened One" or "Enlightened One".[13] Gautama's teachings were compiled by the Buddhist community in the Suttas, which contain his discourses, and the Vinaya, his codes for monastic practice. These were passed down in Middle-Indo Aryan dialects through an oral tradition.[14][15] Later generations composed additional texts, such as systematic treatises known as Abhidharma, biographies of the Buddha, collections of stories about the Buddha's past lives known as Jataka tales, and additional discourses, i.e, the Mahayana sutras.
