False, I think.
I would say it is determined by the number of electrons. The number of protons determines what element it is.
An element will try and fill it's outer shell, and so elements such as neon (a noble gas) is difficult to do anything with as it already has a full outer shell of 8 electrons. Something with 7 outer electrons, however, will be much more reactive as they will try to fill up that last space through a chemical bond.
Not sure if I explained that very well haha,
basically i would say false

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Roman numerals are seen in the names of several compounds. They often appear immediately after the name of central atom in the molecule.

These Roman numerals are used to depict the oxidation state of the central atom in the molecule and not to show how many of that ion appear in the formula.

For instance, in carbon IV oxide, the Roman numeral IV shows that the central atom in the compound-carbon is in the +4 oxidation state.
