Answer:
In the given figure, There are two atoms -
- Sodium ( Na )
- Chlorine ( Cl )
sodium has one electron in valence shell and to get noble gas configuration ( stability ) it need to donate the outer most electron.
whereas,
chlorine has 7 electrons in valence shell and to get noble gas configuration ( stability ) it need to get one more electron.
in this condition Na ( sodium ) donates it's outermost electron to Cl ( chlorine ) and both became stable.
but now sodium has more number of protons than the electrons hence it get positive (+) charge and chlorine has more electrons than the protons hence it get negative (-) charge
so, they get stick to each other by strong electrostatic force acting on the charged atoms and forms a salt " NaCl " ( sodium chloride ) .

Answer would be A)the atom
Answer:
32, 30 and 41
Explanation:
The problem here is to find the number of:
Protons, neutrons and electrons in Ge²⁺
In this ion,
We must understand that for a net positive charge to remain on an atom, the number of protons must be greater than the number of electrons.
Ge is Germanium with atomic number of 32;
So the number of protons is 32
Since the atom has lost two electrons;
Number of electrons now is 32 - 2 = 30
Number of neutrons is 41 from the periodic table.
