Molten barium chloride is separeted
into two species :
BaCl₂(l) → Ba(l) + Cl₂(g),
but first ionic bonds in this salt are separeted because of heat:
BaCl₂(l) → Ba²⁺(l) + 2Cl⁻(l).
Reaction of reduction at cathode(-): Ba²⁺(l) + 2e⁻ → Ba(l).
Reaction of oxidation at anode(+): 2Cl⁻(l) → Cl₂(g) + 2e⁻.
<span>The anode is positive and the cathode is negative.</span>
Explanation:
A metal with one valence electron is highly reactive compared to those with more than one electron.
Atoms including those of metals reacts in order attain a stable electronic configuration just like those of noble gases.
An atom with one valence electron have just one electron in its valence shell.
- Metals generally have large sizes.
- when the electron in this shell is lost, the metal atom can then attain stability.
- therefore, such atom will quickly want to combine with any other willing to accept the electron so that they can be stable.
- Those with more than one electron will find it difficult to lose them.
- It requires huge energy to remove such electrons compared to the ones with only one valence electron.

Sodium potassium pump is an active pump which transfer sodium and potassium ions across the membrane with the expenditure of energy in the form of ATP.
This kind of pump is generally used in nerve cells.
The pump works against the concentration gradient as the pump moves three Na+ ions outside the cell and two K+ ions inside the cell, though there is a high concentration of Na+ outside the cell and a low concentration of K+ outside the cell.
