1) 2
2) 2
3) there are 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen, altogether is 3
4) subscript tells how many atoms of each element are present in the molecule
5) No, it is not balanced because the oxygen atom is not equal on both sides of the reactants and products. This wouldn’t be considered balanced as there are two oxygen atoms in the reactants section and only one oxygen on the products section.

It is:
2 H2 + O2 -> 2 H2O

Describe polar covalent bonds using water as an example

Dahasolnce [82]

<span>A covalent bond is a bond formed by atom sharing.
In water molecule, there are twice the number of hydrogen atoms than the oxygen atoms. Its structure is H-O-H. The electronegative difference between the H and O allows them to be polar because on side there is positive charge and on another side there is negative charge.</span>

The electron configurations of two unknown elements x and y are shown. X: 1s2 2s2 2p6 Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 Which statement is

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

B) They will react because X and Y can share two pairs of electrons to become stable

Explanation:

The electron configurations of two elements x and y are given :

X: 1s2 2s2 2p6

Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6

The statement that is true for both the elements is that, they both will react as they both can share two pairs of electrons to become stable.

To become stable the outermost shell or p orbital should have 8 electrons, so element X can gain 2 atoms to become stable.
