Pretend that you are the size of an atom, observing a reaction between a potassium atom and a fluorine atom. Write an account of

the formation of an ionic bond as the atoms react. Tell what happens to the valence electrons on each atom and how each atom is changed by losing or gaining electrons.

 <span>Each atom in an ionic compound tends either to empty or complete the shell to 8 electrons. So when the number of electrons on the external shell is near 8 , the atom tends to attract electrons to complete the shell giving a positive ion called anion 
Conversely when the number of electrons is small the atom gives these electrons to form a positive ion called a cation</span>

Answer:

Option D. 3, 1, 3, 1

Explanation:

From the question given above,

HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> HOH + Al(NO₃)₃

The equation can be balance as follow:

HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> HOH + Al(NO₃)₃

There are 3 atoms of N on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by 3 in front of HNO₃ as shown below:

3HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> HOH + Al(NO₃)₃

There are a total of 6 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by 3 in front of HOH as shown below:

3HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> 3HOH + Al(NO₃)₃

Now, the equation is balanced.

Thus, the coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1

The total charge of an atom comes from
Rus_ich [418]

The total charge on an atom comes from protons and electrons.

The proton is positively charged while the electron is negatively charged. A neutral atom would have an equal number of protons and electrons.

An atom with more protons than electrons will be positively charged while those with more electrons than protons will be negatively charged.

In a 1.0-liter container there are, at equilibrium, 0.10 mole h2, 0.20 mole n2, and 0.40 mole nh3. what is the value of kc for t
bogdanovich [222]
The reaction involved here would be written as:

2N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3

The equilibrium constant of a reaction is the ratio of the concentrations of the products and the reactants when in equilibrium. The expression for the equilibrium constant of this reaction would be as follows:

Kc = [NH3]^2 / [N2]^2[H2]^3
Kc = 0.40^2 / (0.20)^2 (0.10)^3 
Kc = 4000
