Answer:
products have a higher potential energy than the reactants
Explanation:
The total potential energy of the system increases for the endothermic reaction as the system absorbs energy from the surroundings. The total potential energy of the system decreases for the exothermic reaction as the system releases energy to the surroundings
Basically, an electron dot diagram is just a diagram showing the number of valence electrons a certain atom has (valence electrons are electrons in the outer-most electron level of an atom). The 5 steps they give you just tell you the order of where to put each dot. The picture I attached gives a better representation.
The number around the symbol shows the order of where you would put the dot. The 1 and the 2 on the top show that the first two dots go there, and the 3, 4, and 5 go around the rest of the sides. When it gets to 6, 7, and 8, the numbers go back around to fill in each side twice.
Answer:
I believe it is Potassium (K)
Explanation:
I did the math on a calculator and it was the closest atomic mass to potassium.
The classic case of ionic bonding, the sodium chloride molecule forms by the ionization of sodium and chlorine atoms and the attraction of the resulting ions. An atom of sodium has one 3s electron outside a closed shell, and it takes only 5.14 electron volts of energy to remove that electron.
