What happens to an atom when it gains an electron?

2 answers:

8 0

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.

A wind turbine generating electricity involves electromagnetic energy. thermal energy. solar energy. mechanical energy. chemical

Vaselesa [24]

<h2>A wind turbine generating electricity involves electromagnetic energy. thermal energy. solar energy. mechanical energy. chemical energy. nuclear energy.</h2><h2>ans: electromagnetic energy, thermal energy, solar energy, and mechanical energy.</h2>

Explanation:

Wind mill

It consist of shaft pole and blades that can rotate .

It converts wind energy into electrical energy .

The shaft of wind mill is connected to shaft of armature of generator .

When the fast moving wind rotates the blades of windmill its shaft rotates, armature rotates hence electricity is produced which is further used for various purposes .

Advantage of using wing energy

it is natural renewable resource

It is eco friendly

Disadvantage :

1. It cant be established everywhere

2. It requires large area

3. It is an expensive project

4. Wind dosen't blow all the time so win energy cant be produced every time

5. Minimum speed of wind required is 15km per hour .

So, the wind turbine generating electricity involves mechanical energy of wing and blades .

Which substance is less polar? (circle one) methyl benzoate methyl nitrobenzoate

My name is Ann [436]

A)
Among the given compounds, Methyl benzoate is less polar than Methyl nitrobenzoate. This is because Methyl nitrobenzene contains an additional polar group (-NO₂) which increases its polarity. Therefore, Methyl benzoate having any additional polar group is less polar than Methyl nitrobenzoate.

B)
Below a developed TLC is shown. It contain three spots. A spot at left (blue) is for Methyl benzoate, the middle spot is of crude product (containing reactant and product) and the spot at right (red) is for Methyl Nitrobenzoate. It is clearly shown that the Methyl benzoate being less polar has traveled more while Methyl nitrobenzoate being polar interacts with the stationary phase has traveled less. The middle spot shows the presence of both, reactant and product.
