Answer:
C. two atoms of oxygen.
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Silicon has 14 electrons
Silicon is part of Group IV, all the elements there have 4 valence electrons.
It can form a compound when 4 valence electrons bind with the 4 valence elctrons of silicon
A. four atoms of calcium.
Calcium has 2 valence elctrons. 4 atoms of calcium <u>cannot bind</u> on 1 atom of silicon since there are only 4 valence electrons.
B. one atom of chlorine.
1 atom of chlorine has 7 valence electrons. Chlorine can bind with an atom with 1 valence electron. Since silicon has 4 valence electrons, they will <u>not bind.</u>
Silicon can bind with 4 atoms of chlorine to form SiCl4
C. two atoms of oxygen.
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, this means oxygen can bind with an element with 2 valence electrons.
Since silicon has 4 valence electrons, it <u>can bind</u> with 2 atoms of oxygen to form SiO2 (silicon dioxide).
D. three atoms of hydrogen.
Hydrogen has 1 valence electron. 1 hydrogen atom can bind with an element that has 7 valence electrons.
Three atoms of hydrogen can bind with an element that has 5 valence electrons.
Silicon <u>will not</u> bind with 3 atoms of hydrogen ( but can bind with 4 atoms of hydrogen)

Answer:Answer: The step that is NOT necessary to complete before a cuvette is placed into the spectrophotometer is option B (Write, in ink, either sample or blank on the side of the cuvette to keep track of them)
Explanation: spectrophotometer is an instrument used to measure the light intensity absorbed after being passed through a solution. Before the absorbance of the sample solution, a solvent solution called blank is used for the calibration of the machine and this blank solvent is placed in a cuvette. The procedure usually comes first before the main sample is processed. Therefore there is no need to
Write, in ink, either sample or blank on the side of the cuvette to keep track of them. This is so since sample and blank is not absorbed at the same time by the machine.

Explanation:Are You From Milo?
H2O became a vapor when heated because thats the only one that can go back to its normal state, which is what a physical change is.
