When compounds form, the atoms that bonded get a stable arrangement of electrons.
Compounds form because their atoms get a more stable arrangement than they had in the reactants.
A stable arrangement is a <em>complete octet</em> of eight electrons in the valence shell

Answer:
C
Explanation:
When a line segment and a plane intersect, they intersect at a point. They both coincide on point C
Answer:
a. 3-brumo - 3-methylhexane
Explanation:
Alkyl Halides can undergo substitution reactions. Nucleophiles are electron rich species and has negative charge while Electrophiles are electron deficient species which carry positive charge. Alkyl halide which have polar carbon atom are electrophiles.
1) How old is a bone in which the Carbon-14 in it has undergone 8 half-lives?
Using the graph form the picture you count 8 times the halving of C¹⁴ and you arrive at 45600 years.
2) In the process of radiocarbon dating, the fixed period of radioactive decay used to determine age is called the half-life.
3) A certain byproduct in nuclear reactors, 210Po, decays to become 206Pb. After a time period of about 276 days, only about 25% of an original sample of 210Po remains. The remainder has decayed to 206Pb. Determine the approximate half-life of 210Po.
What the problem is telling you is that at 276 days only 25% original sample remains. If you divide the number of days by two the quantity of original sample will be multiplied by two, and you will have 138 days and 50% of original sample. This is the answer because the the half-life of a isotope is the time in which 50% of original quantity of radioactive atoms will disintegrate.
Simple. The atomic number is the number of protons (12) and the mass number is the number of neutrons and protons combined. So you'd subtract 12 from 25 (25-12=) and that'd get you 13 as your answer. If you need to find the number of electrons, it'll be the same as the number of protons unless it has a certain charge and if it does, if it's positive it has more protons (+) than electrons (-), if it is negative it has more electrons (- negatively charged) than protons (+ positively charged)
