When an element has a cation of +2, it has lost two electrons. A solution is a choice (E).

In electrolysis, the cathode would be drawn to a positively charged ion called a cation. In order for a cation to develop, one or more electrons must be lost, usually by the action of atoms with a larger affinity for them.

Following the chemical symbol is a number indicating the number of electrons lost and consequently the charge of the ion. For example, silver (Ag) loses one electron to become Ag+ while zinc (Zn) loses two electrons to become Zn2+.

Match each label below with the appropriate term. Note there may be more than one correct answer.
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

sigma bond

represents two electrons

Explanation:

The bond between hydrogen and oxygen is sigma bond because the bond between hydrogen and oxygen is covalent means sharing of electron takes place between two atoms and we know that sigma bond is also occurs in a covalent bond in which overlapping of atomic orbitals or hybrid orbitals along the bond axis occurs. Both also represent two electrons because both atoms share one electron each so we can say that the two atoms represents two electrons.

What is the predicted outcome for very low mass stars (those that are smaller than about the mass of the sun)?
White raven [17]

Answer:

In case of low-mass stars,the outer layers of the low mass stars are expelled  as the core collapses such that the outer layers form a planetary nebula.

Explanation:

In case of low-mass stars,the outer layers of the low mass stars are expelled  as the core collapses such that the outer layers form a planetary nebula. The core remains as a white dwarf and finally become a black dwarf as it cools down. A low mass star consumes its core hydrogen and turns it into helium over its lifetime.

A pressure cooker contains 0.355 mole of air, which occupies a volume of 5.68 liters. The temperature inside the pressure cooker
sergejj [24]

Answer:

We will use ideal gas equation in this problem

PV = nRT

Where

P = pressure of gas or air = ?

V = volume of air = volume of pressure cooker = 5.68 L

T = temperature = 394 K

n = moles of air = 0.355

R = ideal gas equation = 0.0821 L atm / mol K

Putting values

Pressure = nRT / V = 0.355 X 0.0821 X 394 / 5.68 = 2.02 atm.
