Answer:
has 4 electrons in its valence shell.
Explanation:
Silicon has 14 protons, so its neutral atom has also 14 electrons, thus, the electron distribution following the Linus Pauling's diagram is:
1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p²
Thus, it has 4 electrons in its valence shell (3), likely carbon. So, silicon would have some of the properties of carbon, such as form 4 bonds, and the structure would be similar.

Nuclear reaction involves the nuclei of atoms. The nucleus can either split (as is the case with fission) of fuse as is the case with nuclear fusion. Remember the main particles in the nucleus are protons and neutrons.
Explanation:
In nuclear fission, atomic nuclei split into lighter atoms through loss of protons and neutrons (such as through loos of a beta particles - 2 protons and 2 neutrons). In the case of fusion, two atomic nuclei fuse under pressure (hence adding neutrons and protons) to create heavier atoms (2 hydrogens can fuse to form a helium). Electrons are not involved in nuclear reactions. Electrons are mainly involved in chemical reactions.

Answer:
Explanation:
When Ammonium Chloride is heated at high temperature, it sublimes and gives rise to white colored dense fumes. ... But, Sodium Chloride does not give rise to any white colored fumes upon heating.
