Which of the following species has the greatest
Licemer1 [7]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When there is a negative charge on an atom then we add the charge with the number of electrons. Whereas when there is a positive charge on an atom then we subtract the charge from the number of electrons.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17. So, number of electrons present in Cl^{-} is 17 + 1 = 18 electrons.

Atomic number of cobalt is 27. So, number of electrons present in Co^{4+} is 27 - 4 = 23 electrons.

Atomic number of iron is 26. So, number of electrons present in Fe^{2+} is 26 - 2 = 24 electrons.

Atomic number of vanadium is 23. So, number of electrons present in V is 23 electrons.

Atomic number of scandium is 21. So, number of electrons present in Sc^{2-} is 21 + 2 = 23 electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given species, Fe^{2+} has the greatest  number of electrons.

A detailed description please...
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The diagram on the right. It has increments of 0.1 of a unit and therefore will provide a more precise measurement. The diagram on the right measures 88.4. In terms of the diagram on the left, a decimal answer cannot be determined because the increments are too large. Therefore the diagram on the left is less precise.

Which is the most active nonmetallic element in group 16?
timama [110]
Oxygen

For metals, reactivity increases as we move through the elements in the period table from top to bottom, and left to right. In contrast, for nonmetals, reactivity increases as we move through the elements in the periodic table, as we move from bottom to the top, and right to left. 

Group 16 on the periodic table is also called the oxygen family or chalcogens. It includes the following elements from top to bottom: Oxygen, Sulfur, Selenium, Tellurium, and Polonium. Of these, only Oxygen, Sulfur, and Selenium are nonmetals. Since reactivity of nonmetals increases going up the periodic table, oxygen is therefore the most reactive nonmetal in the group. Shown in the figure below is the reactivity trend in the periodic table.
