Explanation:

Metals are the substances that contain excess of electrons.

For example, sodium is a metals that has atomic number 11 and its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 1. It has one extra electron in its valence shell and in order to attain stability it loses it valence electron readily.

Whereas non-metals are the substances that contain less number of electrons as compared to metals.

For example, chlorine is a non-metal that has atomic number 17 and its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 7. It needs one more electron to completely fill its valence shell.

On the other hand, noble gases are the gases that contain completely filled shells. Hence, they neither need to gain or lose an electron in order to gain stability. They are stable themselves.

Thus, we can conclude that metals is the family that generally has the valence electrons which are the easiest to remove from the atom.

III. For the following four sections: If you are given the formula, name the
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

15.Potassium oxide

16.Calcium chloride

17.Aluminium sulphide

18.CaS

Explanation:

15.K is the chemical symbol of Potassium and generally the name of the non-metal at the end of a formula has the suffix '-ide' and since O is oxygen, the name becomes Potassium oxide.

16. The same applies here. Ca is Calcium and Cl is Chlorine but since its the non-metal at the end, it ends in -ide. So Calcium chloride.

17.The same applies here too. Al is Aluminium and S is Sulphur so Aluminium sulphide.

18. Calcium's symbol is Ca and that of Sulphur is S and that gives the formula CaS.

What does it mean if a solid is malleable?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

The answer to this question will be the third option "It is bendable." Malleable means to be able to change the shape of a object without damaging or breaking it. In this case a malleable solid would be for example drainage pipes. These pipes have curves and different shapes but still remain its product of a metal.

Hope this helps!
