Answer:
6
Explanation:
This atom is sulfur (if the electrons are equal to the protons/not an ion). You can tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the individual shell. The first shell (1s) can only hold 2 electrons. The second shell (2s and 2p) can hold 8 electrons. The third shell (3s and 3p), which is the valence shell, only has 6 out of its possible 8 electrons, so this atom has 6 valence electrons.
Answer:
2
Explanation:
Carbon Is tetravalent. This means that at any particular point in time, the number of bonds carbon can form at a particular time is 4. Now in this particular question, there is already a double bond between the two carbon atoms. This means that each of the carbon atom has the chance to fulfill it tetra valency by attaching just two bonds to itself.
Hence, to complete the property of its tetra valency, two more bonds needed to be added to the two carbon atoms
Orbital shell notation of fluorine is 2. 7 while that of oxygen s 2. 6. This means that these elements (that follow each other in the periodic table) will have high electronegativity in molecules due to their high atomic number (which causes them to strongly attract electron orbital shell closer to their nucleus). NB: Atomic number of a peroid increased from left to right of the periodic table.
Therefore, in the first molecule, the negative dipole would most likely be located between the F atoms In the second molecule the negative molecule would be most likely located in the between the O and F atoms.
I think the correct answer is option A. Pure substances can be considered as compounds. Compounds are molecules made of atoms from different elements held together by chemical bonds. Pure substances are these compounds that exist alone no other substance.
