A student took several trials to measure the boiling point value of water. The results are listed below. How many trials and which trials should be discarded to make the data precise? Trial 1: 100.1 Trial 2: 99.9 Trial 3: 100.2 Trial 4: 96.5 Trial 5: 100.0 Trial 6: 99.9 Trial 7: 107.5

increased stability in the completion of fluorine's outer shell.

b. accuracy of the data matters alot more than its number of digits, organization or amount of detail. quantitative observation is more accepted than the qualitative observation.

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: )
