They both have two electron shells
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
The period 2 element lies in the second row of the periodic system.
Consists of the elements: lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, and neon
atomic number : 3
electron configuration : [He] 2s¹
atomic number = number of proton=number of electron(in neutral atom)
So Li have 3 protons and 3 electrons
Because it fills the 2s orbital it has 2 shells
atomic number : 8
electron configuration : [He] 2s²2p⁴
So O have 8 protons and 8 electrons
Because it fills the 2s and 2p orbital it has 2 shells
So Lithium (Li) and Oxygen (O) are both have two electron shells
Answer:
Ionic bond
Explanation:
The magnesium atom gives up 2 electrons to form a magnesium ion, Mg2+ . The two electrons are transferred to fluorine atoms to form two fluoride ions, F–.
Answer:
177.277amu
Explanation:
the total occuring isotopes for Hafnium is =6.
First isotope had an atomic weight of 173.940amu
Second isotope =175.941amu
Third isotope =176.943amu
Fourth isotope=177.944amu
Fifth isotope. =178.946amu
sixth isotope .179.947amu
<em>Avera</em><em>ge</em><em> </em><em>ato</em><em>mic</em><em> </em><em>wei</em><em>ght</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Haf</em><em>nium</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>sum</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>all</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>atomi</em><em>c</em><em> </em><em>weights</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>iso</em><em>topes</em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>Tota</em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>occu</em><em>ring</em><em> </em><em>isotopes</em>
Thus, 173.940amu+175.941amu+176.943amu+177.944amu+178.946amu+179.947amu.= 1063.661amu
Average atomic weight= 1063.661amu /6 = 177.2768333amu
= 177.277amu to 3 decimal places.
Answer:
When an atom of sodium and an atom of fluorine combine to form the salt, sodium fluoride, an ionic bond, is formed.
