What happens to the valence electrons of a metal and a nonmetal when they form an ionic bond

Physics
1 answer:
shusha [124]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are also known as electrovalent bonds.

For ionic bonds to form, there is transfer of valence electrons from the metal to the non-metal. Metals are electropositive and would easily allow electrons to leave.

The goal of bonding is to achieve the octet configuration. An atom can lose or gain electrons to achieve this.

For example, to form NaCl, Na would loose its 1 valence electron. Cl would gain the Valence electron and complete it's octet with it.

This transfer of electron creates the ionic bond.

The metal which is less electronegative becomes positively charged. The non metal being more electronegative would become negatively charged.

Ionic compounds are polar compounds.

Suppose that a freely falling object were somehow equipped with an odometer. Would the readings of distance fallen each second i
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

1  greater distances fallen in successive seconds

Explanation:

When a body falls freely it is subjected to the action of the force of gravity, which gives an acceleration of 9.8 m / s2, consequently, we are in an accelerated movement

If we use the kinematic formula we can find the position of the body

       Y = Vo t + ½ to t2

Where the initial velocity is zero or constant and the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

Y = - ½ g t2 = - ½ 9.8 t2 = -4.9 t2

Let's look for the position for successive times

t (s)      Y (m)

  1          -4.9

  2         -19.6

   3        -43.2

The sign indicates that the positive sense is up

It can be clearly seen that the distance is greatly increased every second that passes

A truck accelerates From being stopped to 18 m/s in 5.5 seconds. A bus accelerates from being stopped to 24 m/s in 6.0 seconds.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The bus

Explanation:

a = (v-u)/t  

Where

a = acceleration

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

For truck to get its acceleration,

a = (18-0)/5.5 = 3.27 ms⁻²

For bus to get its acceleration,

a = (24-0)/6 = 4 ms⁻²

As 4 > 3.27 bus has a greater acceleration.

If a ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 80 ft/s, then its height after t seconds is s = 80t − 16t 2 . (a) what
MAXImum [283]
Max height occurs when v = 0.
v(t) = ds(t)/dt
v(t) = 80 - 32t
0 = 80 - 32t
t = 5/2

s(5/2) = 80(5/2) - 16(5/2)^2
s(5/2) = 100
Answer: 100 ft

96 = 80t - 16t²
t = 3, 2
(80 ± √256) / 32 using the quadratic equation.

v(2) = 16
v(3) = -16

A sound wave has a frequency of 247 hz and a wavelength of 1.4 m. what is the speed of the sound wave in air?
Pavel [41]
Speed = wavelength * Frequency 
s = 247 /s * 1.4 m
s = 345.8 m/s

In short, Your Answer would be 345.8 m/s

Hope this helps!
