An ionic compound is a chemical compound of ions held together by electrostatic forces termed ionic bonding
EXAMPLE -/Sodium chloride ,NaCl with Na+and Ci- ions
The answer to this question is False
The balanced reaction is:
<span>4 Al + 3 O2
--> 2 Al2O3</span>
Each Aluminum atom wants to lose 3 electrons to become
isoelectronic with Oxygen. Each Oxygen on the other hand wants to gain 2
electrons. Since the reaction shows 6 Oxygen atoms in the product and each want
to gain 2 electrons, therefore a total of 12 electrons are transferred. Since
the problem ask for the electrons transferred per formula unit, hence:
<span>6 electrons (ANSWER)</span>
<span>There are five. Two atoms of aluminum, and three atoms of oxygen.There are 5</span>
The biggest reason is radioactive wastes. Nuclear power generated radioactive wastes like Uranimum, plutonium and amercium that inhibits gene expression and causes cancer to the environment. Nuclear plants use to release these wastes into the oceans, and it causes fishes to exhibit gender change, 3 eyes, 2 tails etc. The impact on human shows signs of serious blood, liver and lung cancers.
There are currently no way to get rid of these wastes as they take hundred thousands of years to decompose.
Another reason is they cause a small amount of green gas emission. Releases CO2 to the sky. They exhibit radioactive gas emission as well (causes cancer) .
