Usually, the group number of the element would tell you the amount of valence electrons. In an element, their needs to be a full octet in order for it to be stable (aka happy element). Octet means 8 valence electrons in its orbital.

Cl2 +2e- —> 2Cl-
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

When two electrons are added to chlorine has, Cl2, each atom of Cl will receive one electron. Hence, the atoms becomes ions having a negative charge, Cl-

<h3>Ions</h3>

Ions are atoms or group of atoms possessing an electrical charge which may be positive or negative.

Negatively charged ions are formed when atoms accept or gain electrons. The negative charge is because there are more electrons than protons in the atom.

Negatively charged ions are usually formed by non-metals. For example, chlorine gas accepts two electrons to become 2 Cl-

Cl2 + 2e- ----> 2 Cl-

Therefore, when two electrons are added to chlorine has, Cl2, each atom of Cl will receive one electron. Hence, the atoms becomes ions having a negative charge, Cl-

One mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 1023 representative particles (atoms, molecules, ions, or formula units). A sample of
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

it contains 2.56 x 10^15.

Explanation:

given no. of moles = 4.26 x 10^-9 atoms

one mole has 6.022 x 10^23 atoms

so it contains 4.26 x 10^-9 x 6.022 x 10^23 atoms

(If we suppose silver's atomic weight as 108.)
