How do you determine valence electrons of a metal? A non Metal?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Harlamova29_29 [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Check the electronic configuration of elements.

Explanation:

▪Valence electrons are the elwctrons present in the outermost shell of any element.

For example,

Electronic Configuration of Sodium = 2,8,1

Here , Sodium has 1 valence electrons.

▪Valency of an element is the total no. of electrons to be gained/losed in order to achieve duplet/octate state.

For example,

Electronic configuration of Sodium = 2,8,1

Sodium can achieve octate state either by losing 1 electron or gaining 7 electrons. But losing 1 electron is eay than gaining 7 electrons. So Valency of Sodium = +1

☆Metals have 1 or 2 or 3 valence electrons.

☆Non metals have 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 valence electrons.

☆Noble gases tend to stay in duplet/octate state i.e they have 2 or 8 valence electrons.

Is dissolving salt a chemical change or physical change and why?
Firlakuza [10]

It's a physical change because the composition of the salt hasn't change. Only the change in substance/form has occured. To tell if something has undergone physical change is:

• Melting

• Boiling

• Freezing

• Condensing

• Breaking

• Bending

• Dissolving

• Molecules can change motion and proximity

To tell if something changed chemically:

• Molecules rearrange with other molecules to make new substance

• Can be production of flames

• Color change

• Bubbling/fizzing

• Temp. change

• change in composition

How do you convert kilograms to pounds?
Maru [420]

Answer:  (1 Kilogram = 2.20462 pounds) . There are 2.2046226218 lb in 1 kilogram. To convert kilograms to pounds, multiply your figure by 2.205 for an approximate result. 1 kilogram is also equal to 2 lb and 3.27396195 oz. Working out a rough estimate in your head for converting to pounds and ounces may be tricky - remember that there are 16 ounces in a pound.

24. 00 ml of a 0. 25 m naoh solution is titrated with 0. 10m hcl. What is the ph of the solution after 24. 00 ml of the hcl has
12345 [234]

pH of the solution after 24. 00 ml of the hcl has been added is 12.87

millimoles NaOH = mL x M = 24.00 mL x 0.25 M = 6.00

millimoles HCl = 24.00 mL x 0.10 M = 2.40

total volume = 48.00 mL

.................................NaOH + HCl ==>NaCl + H2O

initial.........................6.00.........0............0.........0

added.....................................2.40............................

change.................... -2.40......-2.40.........+2.40.... +2.40

equilibrium.................3.60.........0..............2.40.......2.40

The NaCl contributes nothing to the pH of the final solution. The pH is determined by the excess of NaOH present. (NaOH) = millimoles/mL = 3.60/48.00 = 0.075 M = (OH^-)

pOH = -log (OH^-). Then

pOH = -log (0.075)

pOH =1.1249

As we know,

pH + pOH = pKw = 14.00

pH=14-pOH

pH=14-1.1249

pH=12.87

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

pH is a logarithmic measure of an aqueous solution's hydrogen ion concentration. pH = -log[H+], where log is the base 10 logarithm and [H+] is the concentration of hydrogen ions in moles per liter.

The pH of an aqueous solution describes how acidic or basic it is, with a pH less than 7 being acidic and a pH greater than 7 being basic. A pH of 7 is regarded as neutral (e.g., pure water). pH values typically range from 0 to 14, though very strong acids may have a negative pH and very strong bases may have a pH greater than 14.

200 g of solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) are dissolved in 750 mL of water. What is the concentration of this solution?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

6.67 M

Explanation:

Molarity = \frac{mol}{L}

<em>Convert 200g NaOH to moles. Convert 750 mL to L.</em>

200 g NaOH x (1 mol/39.998 g) = 5.00025... mol NaOH

750 mL x (1 L/1000 mL) = 0.750 L

<em>Substitute values into the equation.</em>

Molarity = \frac{5.00025}{0.750}

Molarity = 6.667... M

Molarity = 6.67 M

Which ion is a polyatomic ion?<br><br> NH4+<br> Cl−<br> Ca2+<br> F−
torisob [31]

Answer:

Water, 35 liters. Carbon, 20 kilograms. Ammonia, 4 liters. Lime, 1.5 kilograms. Phosphorous, 800 grams. Salt, 250 grams. Saltpeter, 100 grams. Sulfur, 80 grams. Fluorine, seven-point-five. Iron, five. Silicon, three grams. And trace

amounts of 15 other elements.

the ingredients of the average adult,right down to the last specks of protein in your eyelashes. And even though science has given us the entire physical breakdown, there's never been a successful attempt at bringing a human to life. There's still something missing. Something scientists haven't been able to find in centuries of research. ...and in case you're wondering, all those ingredients can be bought on a child's allowance. humans can be made rather cheap. There's no magic to it.
