Chemistry

6 0

Answer:

C. Lose three electrons to have a full outer shell  

Explanation:

Al is in Group 13 of the Periodic Table, so it has three valence electrons.

It must either lose three electrons or gain five to achieve a stable octet.

It is easier to lose three electrons than it is to gain five, so Al loses three electrons.

D. is wrong, for the same reason.

A. is wrong. If Al lost three electrons, it would be breaking into a stable inner shell.

C. is wrong. Al is a metal, so it will lose electrons in a reaction.

A weather balloon has a volume of 750ml when filled with helium at 8c at a pressure of 380torr. What is the new volume of the ba
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Using general gas laws

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where P1=380torr = 380mmHg

Vi = 750ml = 0.75dm3

T1= 8c = 281k

P2=0.2torr= 0.2mmHg

T2= 75c = 348k

V2=?

(380*0.75)/281 = (0.2*V2)/348

V2= 1764.77
