Your answer Should be B

Answer:

The correct answer is B.One atom pulls an electron from another atom.

Explanation:

Chemical bonds are made so that atoms can have their entire outer layer, and thus have a stable electronic configuration.

An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion.

So, <u><em>the correct answer is B.One atom pulls an electron from another atom.</em></u>

What volume of sulfur trioxide would be produced by reaction of 2.56 L of oxygen with excess sulfur at STP?
shepuryov [24]
The balanced chemical reaction would be :

S + O2 = SO2
2SO2 + O2 = 2SO3

We are given the amount of oxygen to be used in the reaction. This will be the starting value in the calculations. We do as follows:

2.56 L O2 ( 1 mol / 22.4 L) ( 1 mol SO2 / 1 mol O2 ) ( 2 mol SO3 / 2 mol SO2 ) 22.4 L / 1 mol =  2.56 mol SO3

Are two atoms of the same element identical? pls answer asap need long definition ​
RoseWind [281]

Atoms of the same chemical element do not always have the same mass because, although the number of protons in the nucleus is the same for all atoms of the same element, the number of neutrons is not. Most elements as they occur naturally on earth are mixtures of several isotopes

Which of the following concerning solutions is/are correct? 1. The solvent in a mixture of gases is generally considered to be t
pshichka [43]

Answer: 1. The solvent in a mixture of gases is generally considered to be the substance in greater amount. 2. The solid dissolved in a solution is known as the solute. 3. Solid solutions are called alloys.

Explanation:

A binary solution is made up of two components ,called as solute and another as solvent.

A solute is defined as the component which is present in smaller proportion. It can be in solid, liquid or gaseous phase. A solvent is defined as the component which is present in larger proportion in a solution. It can be in solid, liquid or gaseous phase.

Usually in liquid solutions , solid acts as solute and liquid acts as solvent. For example: In salt solution, salt is the solute and water is the solvent.

Solid solutions contains solid as solute and solid as solvent. These are called as alloys. For example : In brass, zinc is the solute and copper is the solvent.
