<span>A full outer shell has 8 valence electrons, and since each nitrogen has only five, they both need three more to get to a full outer shell. However, since they're the same atom, and they need the same amount of electrons, they're going to form a covalent bond, where they both SHARE three (if one gave three to the other, it would be down to two and even MORE unbalanced)</span>
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Changing the coefficients is one of the steps of balancing a chemical equation. Changing the subscript changes the compounds being used, while changing the coefficient changes the amount of each compound being used.
B3+ is isoelectronic with helium.
Isoelectronicity is the phenomenon whereby two or more molecular entities have the same number of electrons or similar electronic configuration regardless of the nature of the elements that are involved.
In the question given above, helium and B3+ have the same number of electrons. Helium has two electrons. Boron has five electrons but it has given away three of the electrons [that is why it has a charge of +3] and it now has only two left.
Answer:
ELEMENTS
COMPOUNDS
Elements are made up of one kind of atoms.
Compounds are made up of two or more kinds of atoms.
Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any physical or chemical method.
Compounds can be broken down into simpler substances by chemical methods.
Elements have their own set of properties.
Properties of a compound differ from those of their elements.
Examples: Hydrogen, Oxygen
Examples: Water, Sodium chloride
I would have to say it would be the closest to a gas A.
