What happens to an atom when it gains an electron?

2 answers:

If something happens to make an atom lose or gain an electron then the atom will no longer be neutral. An atom that gains or loses an electron becomes an ion. If it gains a negative electron, it becomes a negative ion.

Hope this helps

I'm pretty sure it becomes an ion! If an atom gains a negative electron, it becomes an ion.

Identify the true statement(s). There may be one answer or more than one answer.FADH2 is a reducing agent. FADH2 is an oxidizing

adell [148]

Answer:

FADH2 is a reducing agent.

FAD is an oxidizing agent.

Explanation:

The full form of FAD is flavin adenine dinucleotide. It is mainly a redox-active coenzyme which is associated with the different proteins and is involved with the enzymatic reactions in the metabolism.

FAD is obtained by donating or accepting electrons.

In the citric acid cycle,

succinate + FAD → fumarate + $FADH_2$

Thus we see that FAD is an oxidizing agent while $FADH_2$ is a reducing agent.

Which would have more mass: a mole of sodium or a mole of copper? How do you know?

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

copper

Explanation:

so for this you can work out the mass for both and compare

so mass = moles × mr

so mass of sodium = 1 × 23= 23 g

and mass of copper = 1 × 63.5= 63.5 g

so copper have more mass :)
