Students have asked these similar questions
The elements oxygen and sulfur have similar chemical properties because they both have six electrons in their outermost electron shells. Indeed, both elements form molecules with two hydrogen atoms, water (H2O) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Surprisingly, at room temperature, water is a liquid, yet H2S is a gas, despite sulfur being much larger and heavier than oxygen. Explain why this might be the case.
Another fossil-fuel gas used in cooking appliances is "propane", used commonly
in backyard grills and RV/camping stoves. Propane is a bigger hydrocarbon: 3
carbons single-bonded in a chain, and the remaining bonds are taken by
hydrogen. Its formula is C3H8 and its structure is shown below. KEY POINT: the
products are the same as the combustion of methane, but more is produced.
The graphic below shows that one propane molecule reacts with 5 oxygen
molecules to form
molecules of carbon dioxide.

The “octet rule” in chemistry helps predict the types of bonds thatatoms will form. In general, an atom will be most stable if it fills itsouter shell of 8 electrons. Atoms with fewer than 4 valence electronstend to donate electrons and those with more than 4 valence electronstend to accept additional electrons; those with exactly 4 can do both.Using this rule, determine what category each of the followingelements falls into: N, S, C, P, O, H, Ca, Fe, and Mg. (You will needto work out the valence of the atoms.)
