A. an ion
The atom gains a net electrical charge if the number of protons and electrons are not equal which makes it an ion.
Answer:
2-
Explanation:
For an element to be stable, it must follow the octet rule: an atom will gain, lose or share electrons until its valence shell is complete with 8 electrons.
An element with the valence electron configuration ns²np⁴ has 6 (2+4) electrons in its valence shell. Thus, in order to fulfill the octet, it will gain 2 electrons. As a consequence, it will form an anion with charge 2-.
Answer:
19.8% of Nitrogen
Explanation:
In the Al(NO₃)₃ there are:
1 atom of Al
3 atoms of N
And 9 atoms of O
The molar mass of Al(NO₃)₃ is:
1 Al * (26.98g/mol) = 26.98g/mol
3 N * (14g/mol) = 42g/mol
9 O * (16g/mol) = 144g/mol
26.98 + 42 + 144 = 212.98g/mol
We can do a conversion using these molar masses to find the mass of nitrogen is the sample, that is:
2.57g * (42g/mol / 212.98g/mol) =
0.51g N
Percent composition of nitrogen is:
0.51g N / 2.57g * 100
= 19.8% of Nitrogen
Answer:
When you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts and moves downward. This increases the space in your chest cavity, and your lungs expand into it. The muscles between your ribs also help enlarge the chest cavity. They contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.

1. divergent (moves away from each other)
2. convergent (moves towards each other)
3. transform (slides past each other)
