Water is polar meaning that it has prominent areas of negative and positive charge. Among water molecules there is a weak force called hydrogen bonding which causes the molecules to "stick" to one another. This sticking to itself is called cohesion, and it causes water to ball up into droplets. This same force also causes water to stick to other kinds of molecules. This is called adhesion, and it is what causes water to ride up on the side of a water container slightly.
Noble gases are supposed to be the least reactive elements so I’m assuming Neon would be the most least reactive out of all of them.
Answer:
Those with 3 protons and 3 neutrons are known as the isotope lithium-6. Those with 3 protons and 4 neutrons are known as the isotope lithium-7.
Explanation:
Non-valence electrons: 1s22s22p6. Therefore, we write the electron configuration for Na: 1s22s22p63s1. What is the highest principal quantum number that you see in sodium's electron configuration? It's n = 3, so all electrons with n = 3 are valence electrons, and all electrons with n < 3 are non-valence electrons.
