When is an atom least likely to react

Chemistry

Ket [755]3 years ago

Answer:

The least reactive atoms are those with a filled set of orbitals (octet). The stability of the electrons in atoms determines not only the reactivity of an atom but its valence and the type of chemical bonds it can form.

Hope this helps -_- :)

Answer:

Explanation:(differences)SOLIDS have maximum intermolecular attraction and fixed shape so their particles are stable. LIQUIDS have small particles and are tightly held by molecular bond but not as tight as solid. liquid assume the shape of their container.GAS has free movement of particles...SIMILARITIES.. Liquid,solid and gases can be kept in containers...

• An element in group 2, period 4 has similar properties with
babymother [125]

Answer:  Elements in Group 2

Explanation:  The periodic table was arranged by Dmitri Mendeleev specifically  around similarites in their chemical behaviors.  He found that as atomic number increases, at some point an element starts to react in a manner similar to a previous one.  When that happened, he would place the larger element under the smaller one, and eventually noticed a periodicity in the table.  Elements in a column (Groups) had similiar chemical properties.  We know today that these similarities are due to the electron configuration, and that these configurations repeat themselves.  He left gaps in the table when he could find an existing element with properties similar to others in that group.  I big leap of faith, but it worked.  Elements for those missing boxes were eventually discovered.
