Answer:
atoms tend to react in order to gain 8 valence electrons
Explanation:
The octet rule describes the tendency of atoms of elements to react in order to have eight electrons in their valence shell. This is because having eight valence electrons confers stability to the atoms of these elements in the compounds they form.
The octet rule only does not apply to the transition elements or the inner transition elements as only the s and p electrons are involved. the electronic configuration in atoms having an octet is s²p⁶.
For example, sodium atom has one valence electron in its valence shell but a complete octet in the inner shell; it will react with chlorine atom which has seven valence electrons to form a stable compound, sodium chloride by donating its one valence electron in order to have an octet. Similarly, the chlorine atom will then have an octet by accepting the one electron from sodium atom.
Answer:
Al2(SO4)3 and Mg(OH)2
Explanation:
1. Al has a charge of 3-, and SO4 of 2-
when you cross multiply the charges you get
Al2 and (SO4)3
*the reason theres a bracket around the sulfate ion is that the charge 3 is not for oxygen only, but the entire sulphate ion*
Hence, Al2(SO4)3
2. Mg has a charge of 2- and OH of 1-
again cross multiply
Mg (you dont need to add the 1) and (OH)2
again, the bracket around OH means the charge appiles to Oxygen AND hydrogen
hence, Mg(OH)2
Answer: Catalyst
Explanation: it speeds it up lol but basically the catalyst helps speed up the chemical reaction by reducing the activation energy or changing the reaction machenism/
Metal pots are good for cooking because they have heat conductivity.
