briefly summarize what determines the maximum number of covalent bonds that can be formed by elements in period 2. why can elements in period 3 violate this rule

100 grams of molten lead (600°c) is used to make musket balls. if the lead shot is allowed to cool to room temperature (21°c), what is the change in entropy (in j/k) of the lead? (for the specific heat of molten and solid lead use 1.29 j/g⋅°c; the latent heat of fusion and the melting point of lead are 2.45 × 104 j/kg and 327°c, respectively.)

Acandle’s wick is the fabric string that holds the flame, and it burns down at a constant slow pace when the candle is lit. the wick is usually surrounded by wax. which is the most important property of covalent compounds that makes them useful for making candle wax? a low boiling point a low melting point a high boiling point a high melting point

Astudent pours 10.0 g of salt into a container of water and observes the amount of time it takes for the salt to dissolve. she then repeats the process using the same amounts of salt and water but this time she slowly stirs the mixture while it is dissolving. the student performs the experiment one more time but this time she stirs the mixture rapidly. the dependent variable in this experiment is: time for salt to dissolve speed of stirring amount of water mass of salt
