Answer:
In covalent bonding, the octet rule is important because sharing electrons gives both atoms a full valence shell. As a result, each atom can consider the shared electrons to be part of its own valence shell.

The rule used here is that the algebraic sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms a molecule is zero.
Al2O32× ( oxidation number of Al)+3× ( Oxidation number of O ) = 0
2× ( Oxidation number of Al) +3(−2)=0
2× ( oxidation number of Al) +6
∴ Oxidation number of Al =+3
Answer:
If an atom gains or loses an electron, it bacomes an ion. An atom that gains a negative electron, it becomes a negative ion. If it loses an electron it becomes a positive ion
Explanation:
A lithium atom has 3 protons and 3 electrons. It can lose one of its electrons, making it an ion. It now has more positive protons than electrons so it has an overall positive charge. Therefore it is a positive ion.
A fluorine atom will tend to gain, rather than lose, an electron. By gaining a negative electron, it has an overall negative charge. It has become a negative ion.
Answer: fusion
Explanation:
Nuclear fission : It is defined as a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei (which is an unstable nuclei) into two or more small nuclei (which is a stable nuclei) along with release of high amounts of energy.
Example: The energy released from the process of nuclear fission which is converted into electrical energy that is used in our homes and factories.
Nuclear fusion : It is defined as a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei along with release of energy.
Example: It occurs in sun and stars where the isotopes of hydrogen called as Tritium and Deuterium combine together to form a neutron and a helium atom.
