In an AP Chemistry laboratory, students were given two unlabeled beakers and told that one of the beakers contained 1.0g of solid CaCO3 and the other contained 1.0g of solid AgNO3. They were told to devise an experiment to identify which compound was which. A student did so by adding 50 mL of distilled water to each beaker. Describe the student's observations that allowed him to identify each compound.

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: )
