How can you determine the number of bonds an atom can make

Biology
1 answer:
Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The number of bonds for a neutral atom is equal to the number of electrons in the full valence shell (2 or 8 electrons) minus the number of valence electrons. This method works because each covalent bond that an atom forms adds another electron to an atoms valence shell without changing its charge.

Explain each of the following, giving a named example in each case:
gogolik [260]
(a) solute = substance (solid or liquid) in lesser amount, which will [dis]solve into the solvent

(b) solvent = substance (liquid) in larger amount, which [dis]solves the solvent
it's dissolvability is called "solvency"
water is known as the universal solvent because it is abundant on Earth and has a high solvency

(c) solution = the combination of solvent + solute
depending on the saturation of solute within solvent, the solution may appear clear, like the solvent

**think of warm sugar-water (solution), when all the sugar (solute) dissolves into the water (solvent), the solute seems to have disappeared
