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

science of love

,EXPLANATION:

The initial happy feelings of being in love is stimulated by 3 chemicals in the brain: noradrenaline that stimulates adrenaline production causing that racing heart and sweaty palms; dopamine, the feel-good chemical; and phenylethylamine that is released when we're near our crush, giving us butterflies in our tummies.

A chemist performs the following reaction:
tester [92]

Answer:

9.17 g

Explanation:

1) Calculate mols of PCl5

PCl5 (aq) + 4H2O (l) ⟶ H3PO4 (aq) + 5HCl (aq)

Mass of PCl5: 26.5g

Molar Mass of PCl5 208.24g/mol

Mol of PCl5 = Mass PCl5 /Molar mass PCl5  = 26.5g / (208.24g/mol) = 0.127257011 mol

2) Calculate mols of water needed to react

Mols of H2O per 1 Mols of PCl5 = 4 (because 4 water is needed to Phosphorus pentachloride).

Mols of H2O = Mol of PCl5 * 4 = 0.127257011 * 4 = 0.509028044 mols

3) Calculate Grams of water needed to react

Mols of H2O = 0.509028044 mols

Molar Mass of H2O = 18.015 g/mol

Mass of H2O = Mols of H2O * Molar Mass of H2O

= 0.509028044 mols* 18.015 g/mol = 9.17014021 g

sf = 3

9.17 g
