Which of the following best defines valence electrons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anon25 [30]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Electrons in the outermost energy level

Explanation:

Electrons fill up levels or rings around the nucleus of the atom. The valance electrons are the electrons on the outermost energy ring or level that is the farthest from the nucleus. Also, all electrons repel each other because they have similar charges and are both negative.

Hope this helps!  :)

Acetone major species present when dissolved in water
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: acetone molecule ( CH₃-CO-CH₃)


Explanation:


1) Acetone is CH₃-CO-CH₃


2) That is a molecule (build up of covalent bonds).


3) When dissolved, covalent bonded compounds remain as separate molecules, then it is said that the major species present in the solution is the molecule. The molecules of acetone are surrounded (sovated) by the molecules of water.


This as opposed to the case of ionic compounds that ionize. When a compound as NaCl dissolves in water, it ionizes completely, so the major speceies are not NaCl formulas, but the ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻, not molecules.


That leads to the answer: the major species present when acetone is dissolved in water is the molecules of acetone (you do not need to state the fact that the molecules of water are part of the solution, because that is not the target of the question).

8. Sulfur has a first ionization energy of 1000 kJ/mol. Photons of what frequency are required to ionize one mole of Sulfur?​
Lynna [10]

Answer:

the frequency of photons v = 1.509\times10^{39}Hz

Explanation:

Given:  first ionization energy of 1000 kJ/mol.

No. of moles of sulfur = 1 mole

\Delta E_1 = 1000KJ/mol

We know that plank's constant

h = 6.626\times10^{-34} Js

Let the frequency of photons be ν

Also we know that ΔE = hν

this implies ν = ΔE/h

= \frac{10^6J}{6.626\times10^{-34} Js}

v = 1.509\times10^{39}Hz

Hence, the frequency of photons v = 1.509\times10^{39}Hz

(20 POINTS!!) please help me write a short reference page on chemical bonds (anything helps)
Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:An ionic bond essentially donates an electron to the other atom participating in the bond, while electrons in a covalent bond are shared equally between the atoms. The only pure covalent bonds occur between identical atoms. ... Ionic bonds form between a metal and a nonmetal. Covalent bonds form between two nonmetals.

Nicotine is a toxic substance present in tobacco leaves. There are two lone pairs in the structure of nicotine. In general, loca
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

B.Lone pair in pyrrolidine ring is localized and, therefore, is expected to be more reactive.

Explanation:

There are two nitrogen atoms bearing lone pairs of electrons in the structure of nicotine as shown in the image attached.

One nitrogen atom is found in the pyrrolidine ring. The lone pair on this nitrogen atom is localized hence it is more reactive than the lone pair of electrons found on the nitrogen atom in the pyridine ring which is delocalized a shown in the image attached to this answer.
