Answer:
Explanation:
Beryllium especially, but Boron as well both exhibit metallic characteristics.
The outside ring of Beryllium contains 2 electrons. It would have to take on 6 electrons to have a ring of 8. The same statement can be made about Boron (except that it would need 5 electrons to make 8). It is easier for the atom to give up 2 or 3 than than to take on 5 or 6. It would not be easy to have a 5 or 6 minus charge on it.
Answer:
Catod: K^(+), H2O
2H2O + 2e^(-) ---> H2 + 2OH^(-) reduction reaction
Anod: I^(-), H2O
2I^(-) ---> I2 + 2e^(-) oxidation reduction
2H2O + 2I^(-) ---> I2 + H2 +2OH^(-) ionic net reaction
Answer:
Synthesis Reaction
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Reactions</u>
- Synthesis Reactions: A + B → AB
- Decomposition Reactions: AB → A + B
- Single-Replacement Reactions: A + BC → AB + C
- Double-Replacement Reactions: AB + CD → AD + BC
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
RxN: 2Na + I₂ → 2NaI
<u>Step 2: Identify</u>
2Na + I₂ → 2NaI
A + B → AB
Synthesis Reaction
Answer:
When a atom is unstable (It wants to gain or lose a valence electron)
