Indicate the charge the following elements as they achieve the noble gas configuration. Ga O Br P Rb As
S Mg Al Se Li I

See explanation

Explanation:

Ga is in group 13 hence it must loose three electrons to form Ga^3+ in order to achieve the noble gas configuration because it has three electrons on its outermost shell.

O is in group 16 hence it must accept two electrons in order to attain the noble gas configuration to form O^2- since oxygen has six electrons on its outermost shell.

Br in group 17 has seven electrons in its outermost shell hence it must form Br^- (gain one electron) in order to attain the noble gas configuration.

P in group 15 must accept three electrons and form P^3- in order to attain the noble gas configuration since it has five electrons on its outermost shell.

S is in group 16 hence it must accept two electrons in order to attain the noble gas configuration to form S^2- since sulphur has six electrons on its outermost shell.

Mg in group 2 has two electrons on its outermost shell and must loose both to attain the noble gas configuration forming Mg^2+.

Al is in group 13 hence it must loose three electrons to form Al^3+ in order to achieve the noble gas configuration because it has three electrons on its outermost shell.

Se is in group 16 hence it must accept two electrons in order to attain the noble gas configuration to form Se^2- since selenium has six electrons on its outermost shell.

Lithium is in group 1 and must loose its only outermost electron in order to attain the noble gas configuration to form Li^+.

Rb is in group 1 and must loose its only outermost electron in order to attain the noble gas configuration to form Rb^+.

As in group 15 must accept three electrons and form As^3- in order to attain the noble gas configuration since it has five electrons on its outermost shell.

I in group 17 has seven electrons in its outermost shell hence it must form I^- (gain one electron) in order to attain the noble gas configuration.

in 1783 cavendish was working with his hydrogen gas and found that when he burned it and condensed the vapor it was water. this was very significant since it disproved the greek theory of elements completely since water was not a simple substance but the product of two gases. it was lavoisier who hearing of the experiment gave cavendish's gas the name hydrogen ("water-producer") and added that hydrogen burned by combining with oxygen and that water was a hydrogen-oxygen combination.
