6. Extend your thinking: Many chemical properties are determined by the number of valence electrons. Elements with the same number of valence electrons will have similar properties.
Which element has similar properties to lithium?
Beryllium?
Explain:

Which statement best describes the oxidation numbers of the atoms found in magnesium chloride? a. magnesium has a 2- oxidation number and chlorine has a 1+ oxidation number. b. magnesium has a 2- oxidation number and chlorine has a 2+ oxidation number. c. magnesium has a 2+ oxidation number and chlorine has a 1- oxidation number. d. magnesium has a 1+ oxidation number and chlorine has a 1- oxidation number.

A100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 j/s. (the watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 j/s.) if all of the light emitted has a wavelength of 525 nm , how many photons are emitted per second?

The diagrams show objects’ gravitational pull toward each other. which statement describes the relationship between diagram x and y? gravity attracts only larger objects toward one another. gravity attracts larger objects only if they are close to one another. if the masses of the objects increase, then the force between them also increases. if distance between the objects increases, then the amount of force also increases.
