Can anyone explain to me the octet rule in detail with examples my teacher didn't do the greatest job of making us understand.

In chemistry, the octet rule explains how atoms of different elements combine to form molecules. In a chemical formula, the octet rule strongly governs the number of atoms for each element in a molecule; for example, calcium fluoride is CaF2 because two fluorine atoms and one calcium satisfy the rule. Hope this helps

Explain how the valence electrons are related to the element's period.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

The number of valence electrons in an atom is reflected by its position in the periodic table of the elements (see the periodic table in the Figure below). Across each row, or period, of the periodic table, the number of valence electrons in groups 1–2 and 13–18 increases by one from one element to the next

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Option D: More than 30 seconds

Explanation:

The enzyme CATALASE is found in almost all living organisms. CATALASE helps in the decomposition of one substance into another substance. CATALASE will breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

When the potatoes were boiled it will surely produce no bubbles because the heat would have degrade the enzyme - catalase While the potatoes at room temperature potato produced the most bubbles because catalase works best at a room temperature.

If the potato solution was boiled for 10 minutes and cooled for 10 minutes before being tested, the average time for the disks to float to the surface of the hydrogen peroxide solution would be MORE THAN 30 SECONDS

Chlorine has two stable isotopes, Cl-35 and Cl-37. If their exact masses are 34.9689 amu and 36.9695 amu, respectively, what is
natima [27]

Answer:

X(Cl-35) = 75.95% => Answer 'A'

Explanation:

34.9689·X(Cl-35) + 36.9695·X(Cl-37) = 35.45; X = fractional abundance

X(Cl-35) + X(Cl-37) = 1  ⇒  X(Cl-37) = 1 - X(Cl-25)

34.9689·X(Cl-35) + 36.9695(1 - X(Cl-35)) = 35.45

34.9689·X(Cl-35) + 36.9695 - 36.9695·X(Cl-35) = 35.45

Rearrange ...

36.9695·X(Cl-35) - 34.9689·X(Cl-35) = 36.9689 - 35.45

2.0006·X(Cl-35) = 1.5195

X(Cl-35) = 1.5195/2.0006 = 0.7595 fractional abundance

⇒ % abundance = 75.95%
