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.

It is proposed that a spaceship might be propelled in the solar system by radiation pressure, using a large sail made of foil. W
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

962291.57928 m²

Explanation:

P_r = Pressure = 2\dfrac{I}{c}  (full reflection)

I = Intensity = \dfrac{P}{A}=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}

P = Power = 3.9\times 10^{26}\ W

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

M = Mass of Sun = 1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg

m = Mass of ship = 1500 kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

Force of radiation is given by

F_r=P_rA\\\Rightarrow F_r=2\dfrac{I}{c}\times A\\\Rightarrow F_r=2\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2c} A

This force will balance the gravitational force as stated in the question

\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}=2\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2c} A\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{4\pi cGMm}{2P}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{4\times \pi\times 3\times 10^8\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}\times 1500}{2\times 3.9\times 10^{26}}\\\Rightarrow A=962291.57928\ m^2

The area of the must be 962291.57928 m²

The speed of a nerve impulse in the human body is about 100 m/s. If you accidentally stub you toe in the dark, estimate the time
vodomira [7]

Answer:

0.02 s

Explanation:

Take the (+x) direction to be up.  

The average velocity v during a time interval Δt is the displacement Δx divided by Δt.  

v=Δx/Δt

 =x_f-x_i/t_f-t_i                 (1)

We assume that your height is 1.6m  

Solving [1]

Δt=Δx/v

  = 0.02 s
