The  statement  which is true is

metals  lose  electrons  to become cations

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

  • metals tends  to loss electrons to attain  noble gas  electrons  configuration.
  • When metal loses electrons they form a  positive charged ions.
  • The positively charged ion is known as  cations.
  • for  example  sodium metal (Na)  loses  1 electron to form   a cation with  a charge  of positive 1 ( Na^+)

Answer:

Metals lose electrons to become cations.

Explanation:

You have to lose electrons for it to be a cation, therefore B and D are false and can be eliminated.

Nonmetals tend to gain electrons and become anions, therefore C is incorrect and can be eliminated.

A is the only answer left, and it is scientifically correct.

lara [203]
The correct option is B.
Isotopes refers to those chemical compounds which have the same number of protons and electrons but different number of neutrons, so they end up having different mass numbers.  The diagram given above is that of beryllium, which has atomic number 4 and it has 2 electrons in its outermost shell. It has four protons [same as the number of electrons] and 5 neutrons. Beryllium 10, which is its isotope has four electrons, four protons and 6 neutrons. To get the number of neutron, remove the number of electrons from the number given in the option, that is, 10 - 4 = 6.

Answer:

Potassium (K) has 19 protons.

Each neutral atom of Potassium has 19 electrons.

Explanation:

A) Potassium has 19 protons because the atomic number tells us how many protons are in an atom of the element. (The atomic number is the number above the element symbol. For example, the number above "K" is 19, which is the atomic number).

B) If an atom is neutral, this means that the atom has neutral energy. Protons give positive energy and electrons give negative energy. For the atom to be neutral, the atom must have balanced energy, therefore, making the number of electrons equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.
