Hydrogen (H) and helium (He) are produced in the core of stars in a process called nuclear fusion. Over time stars begin to prod

uce more complex atoms as protons are added to the nuclei of existing atoms. Which of the following statements does not correctly compare the structures of an atom of hydrogen to an atom of helium?
A. Hydrogen and helium have 1 electron shell or energy level.
B. Helium is a noble gas with 8 valence electrons, while hydrogen has 1 valence electron
C. Helium has 2 protons in its nucleus while hydrogen has only 1 proton in its nucleus
D. Hydrogen has no neutrons while helium has two.

A C and D are all correct, Helium and Hydrogen only have a 1s orbital, and helium has 2 protons, while hydrogen has 1, and finally Hydrogen has no neutrons while helium has 2. Helium does not however have 8 valence electrons as the 1s orbital can only hold 2, meaning B is the “correct” (false) answer.

g The difference between an ionic bond and a covalent bond is that Select one: a. ionic bonds commonly occur between two metals
Bond [772]

Answer:

C) Covalent bonds come about because of a sharing of electrons; ionic bonds do not.

Explanation:

There are two main types of chemical bonds- covalent and ionic/electrovalent bonds.

Ionic bond: Ionic or electrovalent bonds are characterized by the transfer of electrons from electropositive atoms (metals) to electronegative atoms (non-metals). The metal atoms after donating their electrons become positively charged ions (cations) while the non-metal atoms after accepting electrons become negatively charged ions (anions). Strong electrostatic forces of attraction constitutes ionic bonds.

Covalent bond: Covalent bonds are formed by the sharing of electrons by the atoms involved in the bond; usually between atoms of comparable electronegativities or atoms of the same element. The shared electrons are contributed by each of the atoms involved in the bonding or may be contributed by only one of the atoms. In covalent bonding, molecules rather than ions are formed.

What is the energy of light with a wavelength of 468 nm? (The speed of light
marshall27 [118]

The answer for the problem is explained below.

The option for the answer is "D".

<u><em>Therefore the energy of the light is  4.25 × 10^-19 J</em></u>

Explanation:

Given:

wavelength (λ) = 468 nm = 468×10^-9 m

speed of light (c) = 3.00 x 10^8m/s

Planck's constant is 6.626 x 10^-34J·s

To solve:

energy of light (E)

We know,

E =(h×c) ÷ λ

E = ( 6.626 x 10^-34 ×  3.00 x 10^8) ÷ 468×10^-9

E = 4.25 × 10^-19 J

<u><em>Therefore the energy of the light is  4.25 × 10^-19 J</em></u>

Predict the reactivity of silicon in water relative to that of sodium, magnesium, and aluminium. Explain your answer. How does t
Inessa [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.

Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.

Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.
