valence electrons are electrons found in the outer shell of an atom. these are electrons that participate in CHEMICAL BONDING. an atom will either give up its valence electrons, gain valence electrons from another atom, or share valence electrons with another atom.
these are the only types of electrons that participate in chemical bonding - since they live in the outer most shell of an electron. no other electrons in an atom can bond. that's why these electrons have their own name.
an atom will do whatever it can to reach its full octet of valence electrons. that that means is that an atom is most stable when it has 8 electrons in its outer shell (it's the most stable and strong that way); hence the name OCTET.
i hope this helps!
Answer:
A valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair. For neutral atoms, the number of valence electrons is equal to the atom's main group number.

Why did Germany, Italy, and Japan that did not have good economies and raw materials needed to expand their territory?
Answer:
Japan knew the United States was economically and military powerful, but it was not afraid of any American attack on its islands. Japan did worry however, that the Americans might help the Chinese resist the Japanese invasion of their country. When President Roosevelt stopped U.S. shipments of steel and oil the Japan, he was doing exactly this: the Japanese are dependent on other countries for raw materials, for they have almost none on their own islands. Without imports of steel and oil, the Japanese military could not fight for long. Without oil, the navy would not be able to move after it had exhausted its six-month reserve. Roosevelt hoped that this economic pressure would force Japan to end its military expansion in East Asia.

Where had Pixley been attorney general? How might this corroborate information in the timeline?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Yo did not include any reference to the timeline. We do not know what that is.
However, we can help you with the following general comments.
Where had Pixley been attorney general?
He was the attorney general in California, from 1862 to 1863.
We are talking about Frank M. Pixley(1825-1895), a Californian politician and journalist with Republican ideas that had the opportunity to cover the actions of the Civil War. In 1877 he founded the San Francisco newspaper "The Argonaut."
As an attorney in general of the state of California, Pixley opposed Chinese migration because he thought those jobs belonged to the American people and the Chinese had no right to take these jobs. Furthermore, the Chinese accepted very low salaries, in detriment to the value of the work that could have been performed by American citizens.

Explain how the Silk Road affected Asia and Europe prior to 1500. Make sure to focus on one or more of
the following topics: inventions, religion, culture and/or diseases.
Answer: The Silk Road was a vast trade network connecting Eurasia and North Africa via land and sea routes.
The Silk Road earned its name from Chinese silk, a highly valued commodity that merchants transported along these trade networks.
Advances in technology and increased political stability caused an increase in trade. The opening of more trade routes caused travelers to exchange many things: animals, spices, ideas, and diseases.
45. All of these statements support the foreign policy of Jefferson and Madison EXCEPT 1 point (A) The Embargo Act of 1807 kept American ships off the high seas and prevented impressment of our sailors by England. (B) England and France needed our goods more than we needed their trade. They were at war and needed all the imports they could get. (C) The Embargo Act and the Non-Intercourse Act were embarrassingly close to a peace-at-any price policy. (D) Circumstances can make avoidance of war a wiser policy than insistence upon national rights.

Answer: (C) The Embargo Act and the Non-Intercourse Act were embarrassingly close to a peace-at-any price policy
Explanation:
The Embargo Act of 1807 was simply a law that was passed so as to prevent the trading of American ships in foreign ports.
Based on the options that are given in the question, we should note that the options given in the question support the foreign policy of Jefferson and Madison except option C "The Embargo Act and the Non-Intercourse Act were embarrassingly close to a peace-at-any price policy". This doesn't support it but rather is against the policy.

Answer:
Sorry sir/ maam, but there is no story here, I will edit the question if you add it! thank you.
Explanation:
Temples were built for the worship of their gods and the nobles resided in magnificent palaces. The ruler of the city was a king, though sometimes it was ruled by a queen. The king would marry his daughters or sons to powerful families within his own kingdom, and sometimes to other families from different kingdoms, forming strong alliances, hoping to ensure prosperity and security for his own kingdom. Wars can break out not only from foreign kingdoms, but also within one’s own family. Strife and bloodshed can spread like wildfire, with brother turning against brother, son against father, uncle against nephew.

Why do subcommittees do most of the work in congress
Answer:
Committees are an essential part of the legislative process. Senate committees monitor on-going governmental operations, identify issues suitable for legislative review, gather and evaluate information, and recommend courses of action to the Senate.
Committees help to organize the most important work of Congress — considering, shaping, and passing laws to govern the nation. 8,000 or so bills go to committee annually. Fewer than 10% of those bills make it out for consideration on the floor.
