If an atom had 7 electrons in second shell, it would need to ________ electron(s) to become stable.

Chemistry

1 electron.

Assuming that the second shell is its valence shell, it would need one more electron to have a fully filled valence shell with eight electrons. This allows it to achieve a stable electronic configuration of a noble gas.

Write the formulas of the three singly chlorinated isomers formed when 2,2-dimethylbutane reacts with Cl2 in the presence of lig
Tems11 [23]

The molecule with same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms is said to be an isomer.

When 2,2-dimethylbutane reacts with chlorine in the presence of light gives three isomers that is CH_{3}C(CH_{3})_{2}CHClCH_{3} (3-chloro-2,2-dimethylbutane), ClCH_{2}C(CH_{3})_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3} (1-chloro-2,2-dimethylbutane) and ClCH_{2}CH_{2}C(CH_{3})_{2}CH_{3} (1-chloro-3,3-dimethylbutane).

In above case, the molecular formula of all isomers are same i.e.C_{6}H_{13}Cl but chlorine is arranged in different positions of carbon. Thus, results isomers.

The reaction is shown in the image.

If this decay has a half life of 2.60 years, what mass of 72.5 g of sodium 22 will remain after 15.6 years
Vlad1618 [11]

Sodium-22 remain : 1.13 g

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

General formulas used in decay:  

\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{T/t\frac{1}{2} }}}

T = duration of decay  

t 1/2 = half-life  

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms  

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time  

half-life = t 1/2=2.6 years

T=15.6 years

No=72.5 g

\tt Nt=72.5.\dfrac{1}{2}^{15.6/2.6}\\\\Nt=72.5.\dfrac{1}{2}^6\\\\Nt=1.13~g

Is this correct please help?
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt Number \ and \ unit}

Explanation:

The two requirements for a measurement are a <u>number</u> and a <u>unit.</u>

For example, here is a measurement:

38.6 cm

The <u>number</u> is 38.6 and the <u>unit</u> is cm, or centimeters.

Therefore, both <em>number </em>and <em>unit</em> are correct.
