in order for a scientific theory to become a scientific law it needs to be tested with generations of data to confirm that it is really true.
The density is 3.144 g / cm^3.
<u>Explanation</u>:
If effective number of atom in NaCl type structure, z = 4
a = 705.2 pm ⇒ In centimeter = 705.2 
10^-10
Na = 6.023 10^23
density = (molecular weight) (z) / (Na) (a^3)
where molecular weight of KI is 166 g,
Z represents the atomic number
density = (molecular weight) (z) / (Na) (a^3)
= (166 4) / (6.023 10^23) (705.2 10^-10)
density = 3.144 g / cm^3.
The fomula is NH4 (1+)
There are only two elements N and H.
As per oxidation state rules, the most electronegative element will have a negative oxidation state and the other element will have a positive oxidation state.
N is more electronative than H, so H will have a positive oxidation state and nitrogen will have a negative oxidation state.
You can also use the rule that states the hydrogen mostly has 1+ oxidation state,except when it is bonded to metals.
In conclusion the oxidation state of H in NH4 (1+) is 1+.
Now you must know that the sum of the oxidations states equals the charge of the ion, which in this case is 1+.
That implies that 4* (1+) + x = 1+
=> x = (1+) - 4(+) = 3-
Answer: the oxidation state of N is 3-, that is the option b.
Answer: The correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.
Explanation:
Hello! Let's solve this!
We will analyze each of the options:
A. The group number of the element provides a clue to the number of valence electrons: it is correct, since it provides the number of valence electrons.
B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable: this is not correct, since elements with eight electrons in the valence shell cannot react because they already have the last complete shell. Therefore, they are chemically stable.
C. The points must be placed one at a time on each side of the chemical symbol: it is correct, because that is the way to make the point diagram.
D. An atom is chemically stable if all the points are paired: this is correct since this verifies that the point diagram has been done well.
We conclude that the correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.
Hope this helps..... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!! :D
