Answer:

8 valence electrons

Explanation:

We are given the atom has 10 electrons.

The first electron shell holds 2 electrons (maximum)

The second electron shell holds 8 electrons (maximum)

2+8=10

Therefore we would have 2 electrons in the first shell and 8 in the second.

Valence electrons are the outermost electron, and since the second shell is the outermost for the atom, it has 8 valence electrons.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The reaction is:

                                    H⁺

CaCO₃ ⇄ Ca²⁺ + CO₃ ⇄ HCO₃

The standard free energy change is ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Explanation:

Limestone is a mineral familiar with calcium carbonate, and being very common, the acid present in acid rain dissolves it reacting with carbonate, since the acids present in acid rain are characterized by being highly soluble in water and are also strong acids. The reaction is as follows:

                                    H⁺

CaCO₃ ⇄ Ca²⁺ + CO₃ ⇄ HCO₃

The spontaneity of the reaction is equal to:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

The sign of the standard free energy changes from positive to negative.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: Fractional distillation is used to separate liquids with differing boiling points

Explanation:

Sublimation is used to separate volatile substance from a non volatile substance where volatile substance gets converted from solid to gas.

Fractional distillation is separation of a liquid mixture into fractions which differ in boiling points by means of distillation by use of a fractionating column.

Chromatography is a separation method where different rates of adsortion of different components is used to separate substances.
