(C) neon (atomic number 10)
Explanation:
The atom that is chemically inert is Neon with an atomic number of 10.
An atom is chemically inert if it does not willingly take part in chemical reaction.
Atoms takes part in chemical reactions in order to attain a stable configuration as seen in the noble gases.
In the noble gases every enable level is completely filled with the appropriate number of electrons.
- The noble gases are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe
- These elements do not react with others.
- From the given option, Neon is a noble gas and therefore inert.

Answer:
What is the empirical formula of the compound?
Explanation:
When the relative masses of elements in a hydrocarbon are given, it is possible to use this information to obtain the empirical formula by dividing the given masses of each element by the relative atomic masses of the element. The lowest ratio is now used to divide through to obtain the empirical formula of the compound.
The empirical formula only shows that ratio of atoms of each element present in the compound. From the information provided, the empirical formula of the compound is CH2. Hence the answer.
Eggshells are made primarily of calcium carbonate. The acid in vinegar softens the calcium of the eggshell. Adding a little vinegar to the water when boiling eggs is an old cook’s trick that makes them easier to peel.
