What tissue system of the plant body is largely responsible for photosynthesis?
Ground Tissues
The pigment that is largely responsible for skin color is?
Melanin produces skin color.
Which area is largely responsible for voluntary body movements in the brain?
motor area which is located in cerebral cortex .
Is CFC another name for a chlorofluorocarbon?
Yes. Chlorofluorocarbons are greenhouse gases. They were largely responsible for damaging the ozone layer, but they have been checked since the Montreal Protocol (1987 - 1999), which has been ratified by 196 countries.
Tuareg or Bedouin cultures are located largely in biomes?
Desert
The chemical behavior of atoms is determined by the?
The chemical behavior is determined largely by the number of valence electrons.
Does the amount of protons an element has affect chemical bonding?
Yes and no; the number of protons determine the valance number of electrons. The valence level of electrons and how full/empty it is largely determines an elements chemical behavior. I would say that valence electrons are the main determinant, but that is predetermined by protons.
What do you call the electrons in the outermost energy level?
Electrons in the outermost energy level are called valence electrons. The number of valence electrons on an atom largely determine its behavior and characteristics.
The valence electrons largely determine the chemical properties of an element and are usually the only electron used in?
BONDING!
The term that refers to a set of values and behavior that are largely responsible for the continued long-term poverty of certain groups is the?
Economic
What chemicals are largely responsible for the breakdown of the ozone layer?
The chemical largely responsible for the breakdown of ozone layer is CFC. These chlorofluorocarbons release chlorine which deplete upto 100,000 molecules per chlorine molecules.
How many valence electrons will result in chemical stability for an atom?
An atom requires 8 valence electrons to be chemically stable. The elements with 8 valence electrons are the Noble Gases, and they are both stable and largely unreactive.
Why are fluorine elements more similar to bromine than neon?
The chemical properties of an element are largely determined by the number of valence or outer shell electrons it has. In general, elements will react to obtain a stable octet, meaning 8 valence electrons. Neon already has 8 electrons and so is largely chemically inert. Fluorine and Bromine each have 7 valence electrons, giving them somewhat similar chemical properties. Both are highly reactive.
What does a valence shell have to do with chemical reactions?
The valance shell is important in chemical reactions, as it is the valance electrons which are gained/lost during reactions. An atoms valance electron configuration is what largely determines its chemical reactivity.
Why do members of the same vertical group on the periodic chart tend to show similar chemical and physical property?
The outer shell electron (valence electrons) configuration is the same, hence the same properties. Chemical properties of elements are largely determined by its outer shell electrons
