Fed [463]3 years ago
5 0

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • The correct option is A. The attraction of metal ions for mobile electrons

<u><em>Formation of metallic bond:</em></u>

  • In metals , the valence shells electrons of s and p orbitals are mostly delocalized forming sea of electrons.
  • These free electrons surround the positively charged atoms resulting formation of metallic bonding.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Fluorine is a <em>non-metal, fills its shell by gaining one electron </em>and<em> becomes a negatively charged ion.</em>

Explanation:

Fluorine have seven electrons in its outermost shell. This means that fluorine is located in Group 17(<em>Halogens</em>) in the Periodic Table. Note that halogens are non-metal elements. So fluorine is a non-metal.

Fluorine fills its shell by gaining one electron because it only needs one electron to achieve stable octet electron arrangement. ( it's easier to gain one electron than to lose all seven electrons in the outermost shell)

As fluorine atom gain one electron to achieve stable octet electron arrangement, its number of electrons becomes greater than its number of protons. So it becomes a negatively charged ion.

What is the overall equation for this chemical reaction?
Lady bird [3.3K]
We combine the two equations, like we would any mathematical system of equations. After addition of the two equations, we get:
Mg + 2H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Mg⁺²(aq) + H₂(g) + 2e⁻
Cancelling like terms from both sides

Mg + 2H⁺(aq) → Mg⁺²(aq) + H₂(g)

Can a new element be discovered and be placed in between copper and nickel on the periodic table? Explain your answer.
laila [671]

Answer:

Yes and no

Explanation:

If a new element is discovered and needed to be put into the table of elements, there would have to be a process to find a spot for it. The table is used heavily in chemistry and it revolves around how the elements are placed. So there would have to be a developed spot for the new element.
