Answer:

\boxed {\tt B. \ Buoyancy}

Explanation:

Let's define each answer choice.

A. Density

  • The amount of mass in a certain space

B. Buoyancy

  • The tendency of an object to float on a fluid/water

C. Magnetism

  • The ability of objects to product attracting or repulsing fields

D. Solubility

  • The ability to dissolve

The definition that matches "the ability for something to float on water" is buoyancy. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Buoyancy

Fill in the blanks: Electrons are ___ in an ionic bond, whereas they are___ in a polar covalent bond, and ___ in a nonpolar cova
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "transferred; unequally shared; equally shared".

Explanation:

Ionic bonding occurs when a positively charged atom (cation) interacts with a negatively charged atom (anion). In ionic bonding, the cation transfers its electron to the anion. In polar covalent bonding, electrons are unequally shared. This means that the electrons spend more time in an atom than the other, which gives partial positive and negative charges to the atoms. On the other hand in nonpolar covalent bonding, the electrons are equally shared and no charges are created.

Consider the set of isoelectronic atoms and ions a2–, b–, c, d+, and e2+. which arrangement of relative radii is correct?
faust18 [17]
The term isoelectronic atoms means that if the given atoms are neutral, they would have the same number of electrons, which is relative to their sizes. Ions with positive charges are called cations, losing electrons. On the other hand, ions with negative charges are called anions, gaining electrons. The more electrons that the atoms have, the bigger it is in size. Hence, the arrangement of the radii of the atoms would have to be,

      e²⁺, d⁺, c , b⁻, a⁻

The arrangement is from smallest to largest.
