How many valence electrons for this element having this electron configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6

Chemistry
1 answer:
Radda [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1 {s}^{2} 2{s}^{2} 2 {p}^{6}

The outermost shell holds the so called valence electrons, therefore we have 8 electrons in that shell...

2s have 2 electrons and 2p hold 6 electrons 6+2=8

Which state of matter would demonstrate the best ability to flow/pour?explain using the term particles
frutty [35]

Liquid, in a liquid state of matter, particles will flow over eachother, the forces between the particles are strong enough to hold a certain volume but not strong enough to keep the molecules sliding over each other.

Among the elements listed, which would show the largest increase between the second and third ionization energies and why?
Yuri [45]
Ionization energy increases from left to right in the row and from bottom to top in a column. Also as we get closer to the nucleus it would be harder to take electrons out. B  (atomic #5) has 2 layers of electron 2 and 3 atom in each layer. P has 15 so it would be 2,8 and 5 respectively. Ca is 20 so 2,8,8,2 and Zn is 30 and it would be 2,18,8,2.
For energy between second and third ionization we are looking at taking out the 3rd electron. B already has 3 electron in the first layer so its easy to take them all. P has 5 in the last layer so again easy. But when we look at Ca and Zn after the 2nd electron (in the last layer) we should change the layer go one layer inside. So this needs more energy. To pick between Zn and Ca (they are in the same row)  I mentioned earlier that in one row as we go to the right ionization energy increases so the answer is Zn.
