The answer is A. Water
Bronsted-Lowry base compounds are those that can accept protons
Bronsted-Lowry Acid Compounds are those that can recieve one
Water / H2O is an Amphoteric compund which mean that its molecul can act as a Base and Acid compound, so the answer is A.

Explanation:
Answer:
The nuclear charge increases from boron to carbon, but there is no additional shielding( that is no additional shells).
Explanation:
First of all, we must know the electron configuration of carbon and boron.
Boron- 1s2 2s2 2p1
Carbon- 1s2 2s2 2p2
Moving from boron to carbon, the effective nuclear charge increases without a corresponding increase in the number of shells. Remember that shielding increases with increase in the number of intervening shells between the outermost electron and the nucleus. Since there isn't an increase in shells, boron experience a lower screening effect.
From
Zeff= Z- S
The Z for carbon is 6 while for boron is 5 even though both have the same number of screening electron S(4 screening electrons). Hence it is expected the Zeff(effective nuclear charge) for boron will be less than that of carbon.
Answer:
The elements in same period have same principle quantum number or energy shell.
The elements in same group shows similar chemical and properties.
Explanation:
Inn group:
The elements in same group i.e present in vertical column shows similar chemical properties.
The elements in same group having same number of valance electrons. while in chemical reaction bonds are break and formed and valance electrons are involved. That's why elements in same group having same number of valance electrons and shows similar chemical properties.
In period:
While as we move from left to right the number of valance electron increase by one in every element. But the electron is added in same shell which means that their physical and chemical properties are different but principal quantum number is same.
Answer:
Charge= -2.
Gains two electron into the 4p^4 to become 4p^6.
Explanation:
The element in the periodic table/chart that matches with the valence electron configuration is Selenium with full electron configuration of [Ar] 3d^10 4s^2 4P^4 which is a non-metal that is found in group 4 of the periodic table/chart.
Selenium can receive 2 more electrons on the 4p^4 to give a -2(minus 2) ion that is Se^2-.
Selenium can also loose 2 electron from 4s^2 to give a +2 ion that is Se^2+.
Selenium can also loose 2 electrons from 4s^2 and 2 electrons from 4p^4 to form Se^4+.
Selenium can also loose 2 electrons from 4s^2 and 4 electrons from 4p^4 to form Se^6+.
Thus, in order to form a monatomic ion with a charge(we will be making use of the most stable one). Thus, it will gain two more electron since this is easier to become 4s^2 4p^6.
