Answer:
Ionic bonds usually occur between metal and nonmetal ions. For example, sodium (Na), a metal, and chloride (Cl), a nonmetal, form an ionic bond to make NaCl.
Explanation:
Answer:
There must be two Chlorine atoms for every one Calcium atom in order to fulfill Chlorine's octet rule and pair Calcium's unpaired electrons.
Explanation:
Calcium has two unpaired electrons in its Lewis dot structure, while Chlorine has one unpaired electron.
<em>So why can't we just make a double bond for </em><em>one</em><em> Chlorine?</em>
Chlorine has seven valence electrons, so once it shares electrons with Calcium, the octet rule is accomplished, and no more pairs can be made.
Answer:
c and d are correct
Explanation:
In A, false because in Valence Electrons, the more the valences, the more stable an atom is.
In B, false because atoms cannot readily gain or lose valence electrons as the number of valence electrons is determined by the column they are in.
In C, true because the more the valence electrons, the more the stability of an atom.
In D, true as electron placing is important and the reactivity of an atom is important.
So C and D are true!
Answer:
4.52 x 10¹⁴ cycles/s
Explanation:
From c = f·λ => f = c/λ = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s)/(6.63 x 10⁻⁷m) = 4.52 x 10¹⁴ cycles/s.
f = frequency = ?
λ = wavelength = 6.63 x 10⁻⁷ meter
c = speed of light in vacuum = 3.0 x 10⁸ meters/s
Answer:
B) Electrons are located in the cloud-like areas around the nucleus.
Explanation:
The quantum mechanical model of the atom does not consider the path through which an electron travels. It rather estimates the probability of where electrons can be found at each energy level.
The region of maximum probability of where an electron is located is sometimes called an electron cloud or orbital. Each orbital of an atom and the electrons accomodated are described completely by a set of four quantum numbers.
