valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outer shell. there can only be 8 electrons in the outer shell. The number of valence electrons can be used to determine how many bonds are needed.
For example: H2O
O (oxygen) has 6 valence electrons
H (hydrogen) has 1 valence electron
O needs 2 more electrons to be stable
H needs 1 more electron to be stable
O forms one bond with two H atoms to form H2O.
Answer:
true
Explanation:
The hydroxyl group is a functional group formed by an oxygen atom and a hydrogen atom.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
To answer this question, we will need to write the dissociation equation of aluminum trichloride.
AlCl3 ——-> Al3+ + 3Cl-
It can be seen that when aluminum chloride dissociates, it gives one mole of aluminum ion and three moles of the chloride ion.
From here we can see that the concentration of the aluminum chloride equals that of the aluminum ion while that of the chloride ion is thrice that of the aluminum chloride. This means we simply multiply 0.12M by 3 to get the molarity of the chloride ion while that of the aluminum ion remains the same
Answer:
plasma
Explanation:
Plasmas are a lot like gases, but the atoms are different, because they are made up of free electrons and ions of an element such as neon (Ne). You don't find naturally occurring plasmas too often when you walk around. They aren't things that happen regularly on Earth.
I'd say no because the only pure substances are elements
