Helium, an inert gas has 2 valence electrons. But in your case, it would be 8

answered: jazminemendezhidalgo

The valence electrons of inert gases have is 8 ( answer D)

explanation

Inert gas are gases found in in group 18 in periodic table. They include helium, Neon, Argon and krypton.

Inert gases has eight valence electrons since has eight electron in outermost shell.

for example argon with has 2.8.8 electron configuration has eight valence electron.

answer: - 3.) the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

solution: - as per the rules, oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2. the sum of oxidation numbers of all the elements of a molecule or compound is zero.

also, the oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

in no, the oxidation number of o is -2 so the oxidation number of n is +2 so that the sum is zero.

similarly, the oxidation number of c in co is +2 and o is -2.

on product side the oxidation number of n is 0 as it is in the elemental form( $n_2$ ) .

oxidation number of c in carbon dioxide is +4 as there are two oxygen in it and we know that each oxygen is -2.

so, oxidation number of n is changing from +2 to 0 and the oxidation number of c is changing from +2 to +4.

since nitrogen is reduced and hence no is acting as an oxidizing agent. carbon is oxidized and so co is acting as a reducing agent.

so, the right choice is number 3.)the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

you did not give any options thus this is the best answer i can give to you with this little information you have given

> they are both natural and not man made

> they can be tracked and predicted by the right tools

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them.

Elaborate on the reason(s) that matter is said to move even as in a solid state. select one: a. the particles are bound through intermolecular forces but are able to move past each other with relative freedom. b. the particles have sufficient energy to become an ionized gas and are in the most common state of matter in the universe. c. the particles are not able to move out of their positions relative to one another, but do have small vibrational movements. d. the particles are not bound to one another, move quickly, have a low density, and are able to spread apart from one another if unconstrained.

Henry moseley used x-ray experiments to determine the atomic number of elements. how did his discovery contribute to the development of the periodic table? a. it confirmed that elements should be arranged in strict order of increasing atomic mass. b. it led to elements with similar atomic numbers being grouped together. c. it allowed the elements to be placed in strict order of increasing atomic number. d. it showed that the way mendeleev grouped elements together was completely wrong.

In this problem, you will determine the biosynthetic cost of generating the amino acid serine from glucose used as food. the biosynthetic costs of all the amino acids are given in table 5.1, and now you will get a first-hand sense of how to obtain those values. visit the website and find the metabolic pathways for serine synthesis and glycolysis. the starting molecule of the serine synthesis pathway is an intermediate in glycolysis. how many molecules of glucose must be taken up to provide the carbon skeleton used to make serine? draw the biochemical pathway starting with glucose and ending in serine, labeling the energy-requiring and energy-generating steps. how many molecules of atp are consumed and created along the way? how many reducing equivalents of nadh and nadph are consumed or created along the way? in order to answer this question completely, you may need to consider a few other pathways as well. for example, it is likely that the displayed glycolysis pathway does not actually start with glucose. to get glucose 6-phosphate from glucose requires 1 atp. one of the steps in the serine synthesis pathway is coupled to a conversion of l-glutamate to 2-ketoglutarate.
