Q

What are valence electrons and why are they so important in chemistry

A

valence electrons are the electrons exist farthest from an Atoms nucleus they are the electrons with the highest energy level
they determine the chemical behavior of the atom

Q

The chemistry of life is based on carbon. This means that all of the molecules which govern life-giving chemistry have carbon Adams in their principal component chemist have often speculated that there could be a life form with the chemistry based on silicon. Why

A

It has four Valence electrons it is in the same calm as carbon so they have similar chemistry

Q

What is the difference between an Atom and an ion

A

Adams have equal number of electrons and protons with no overall charge

And I am protons and electrons are not equal and it has a charge because of the inbalance

Q

Describe how the periodic properties mentioned inconsistent and very as you move up in a column and to the right along a row of the periodic table

A

ionization energy and electronegative increases as you go up into the right on the periodic table

Atomic radius increases as you go down into the left
