Sodium is a metal, Chloride is a non-metal.
Right off the bat, you know that in order for both of these atoms to achieve a full valence shell that the metal has to lose electrons, and the non-metal has to gain them.
Therefore, you have the transfer of electrons in this bond in order to form ions.
Na+ and Cl-. This transfer of electrons in a bond is called an {{ Ionic Bond}}
Answer:
C. Lithium
Explanation:
I Goo gled it and I think that's right.
The atomic structure of the acetic acid is:
H O
l l
H –
C – C – O – H
l
H
We can see from the structure that there are 2 interior
atoms, and these are all Carbon atoms.
The geometry is:
Tetrahedral on First Carbon
Trigonal Planar on Second Carbon
Answer: There would have to be three nitrogen atoms in the products. The law of conservation of matter states that the amount of substance before a reaction occurs should be the same as the amount of substance after the reaction.
Explanation: This is the EXACT sample answer from the test, just reword it if you want. ^
