Answer:

Metals lose electrons to become cations.

Explanation:

For example, sodium loses an electron to become a sodium cation.

Na· ⟶ Na⁺ + e⁻

A is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.

B is <em>wrong</em>. Metals lose electrons.

D is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.

Answer:

Cl_2+2NaI\rightarrow I_2+2NaCl

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the described chemical reaction, Cl2 replaces iodine in NaI in order to produce I2 and NaCl:

Cl_2+NaI\rightarrow I_2+NaCl

It is possible to realize how chlorine replaces iodine in agreement with the single displacement reaction. Moreover, since chlorine and iodine atoms are not correctly balanced, we add a 2 in front of both NaI and NaCl in order to do so:

Cl_2+2NaI\rightarrow I_2+2NaCl

Best regards!

The half life of a certain radioactive element is 800 years. How old is an object if only 12.5% of radioactive atoms in it remai
Levart [38]

Given,  half life of a certain radioactive element = 800 years.

Amount of substance remaining at time t = 12.5%

Lets consider the initial amount of the radioactive substance  = 100%

Using the half life equation:

A = A₀(1/2)^t/t₁/₂

where A₀ is the amount of radioactive substance at time zero and A is the amount of radioactive substance at time t, and t₁/₂ is the half-life of the radioactive substance.

Plugging the given data into the half life equation we have,

12.5 = 100 . (1/2)^t/800

12.5/100 = (1/2)^t/800

0.125 = (0.5)^t/800

(0.5)^3 = (0.5)^t/800

3 = t/800

t = 2400 years

Thus the object is 2400 years  old.

Answer:

54

Barium atomic number is 56, this means that it has 56 protons in its nucleus and put it as a period 6 element. an uncharged barium atom would have 56 electron also. However as a group 2 element barium easily loses 2 electron to form the +2 cation. the ions has 56-2=54
