Why is true about electron dot diagrams

Chemistry
1 answer:
vazorg [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: The correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.

Explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

We will analyze each of the options:

A. The group number of the element provides a clue to the number of valence electrons: it is correct, since it provides the number of valence electrons.

B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable: this is not correct, since elements with eight electrons in the valence shell cannot react because they already have the last complete shell. Therefore, they are chemically stable.

C. The points must be placed one at a time on each side of the chemical symbol: it is correct, because that is the way to make the point diagram.

D. An atom is chemically stable if all the points are paired: this is correct since this verifies that the point diagram has been done well.

We conclude that the correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.

Hope this helps.....  Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!! :D

When writing equations the mass on the left of the arrow must
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

When writing equation the mass on left side of equation must be equal to the mass on right side. True

Explanation:

The chemical reactions always follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass because total mass is equal on both side of equation.

Help me answer this question please?
Tema [17]

Answer:

I think D

Explanation:

Ok, I'm not sure but it sounds right ish you should check a practice video or something. It might also be B or C but im pretty certain it isnt A just ask yourself is the student measuring it in newtons? Is that important in the process? What about if the student is considering the affect of mass is it important? Good luck srry if im not much of help! If this is like A SUPER IMPORTANT TEST OR SOMETHING RLLLLLLLY IMPORTANT just wait for another answer gl!

What is the molarity of 10g of carbon in a 500L solution?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Molarity is the number of moles in a liter of a substance.

Molarity= Mole/volume

Mass= 10g

Molar mass of Carbon=12g

To calculate the mole we use the formula: mole= mass/molar mass

Mole = 10g/12g

Mole = 0.83

Molarity= 0.83/500 =0.0017moles per liter
