The rate constant for the second order reaction 2A → B is 5.3 × 10–5 M–1 s–1. What is the original amount present if, after 2 hours, there is 0.35 M available?

it's filtration, but this is an assumption so my apologies if i got this

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
