5 0

Answer:

(c) P and Sb

Explanation:

We can determine the number of valence electrons of an element:

  • If it belongs to Groups 1 and 2, the number of valence electrons is equal to the number of group and the differential electron occupies the s subshell.
  • If it belongs to the groups 13-18, the number of valence electrons is equal to: "Number of group - 10" and the differential electron occupies the p subshell.

Which pair of elements have the same valence electronic configuration of np³?

(a) O and Se. NO. They belong to the group 16 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np⁴.

(b) Ge and Pb. NO. They belong to the group 14 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np².

(c) P and Sb. YES. They belong to the group 15 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np³.

(d) K and Mg. NO. They belong to the groups 1 and 2 and the valence electron configuration is ns¹ and ns².

(e) Al and Ga. NO. They belong to the group 13 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np¹.

dedylja [7]

Answer:

ion

However atoms may gain or lose electrons in ordinary chemical reactions. If an atom has the same number of electrons as protons, it is a neutral atom. If it has a net charge, (more or less electrons than protons) it is an ion. If it has more electrons than protons it has a net negative charge and is known as an anion.

Rzqust [24]
If the mass of all of the products in a chemical reaction is equal to 100g then the mass of the reactants in that same reaction had to have had a mass of 100g this is due to the law of conservation of matter stating matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Explain hydrogen bonding.
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Hydrogen bonding, interaction involving a hydrogen atom located between a pair of other atoms having a high affinity for electrons; such a bond is weaker than an ionic bond or covalent bond but stronger than van der Waals forces. Hydrogen bonds can exist between atoms in different molecules or in parts of the same molecule.

A teniss ball has more mass than a gold ball because it?
kakasveta [241]

Hello There,

I believe you stated your question wrong. This is not possible. A tennis ball can't have more mass than a gold ball.

If you MEANT to say:

A golf ball has more mass than a tennis ball because

then your answer would be:

It contains more matter


Best Of Luck,
