Answer:

The electrons are lost from the valence shell (outermost electron shell) of the atom.

Explanation:

This is able to be inferred not only because valence electrons being lost first is a trend but also because the atom in question has actually 3 valence electrons (13-2-8 = 3).

What types of atoms typically form covalent bonds?

The correct answer:

d) Nonmetals with nonmetals, because their difference in electronegativity is below 1.7.

En example to explain:
An example of a covalent bonding: HCl -> 2 nonmentals
-> a difference in electronegativity less than 1.7:

EN(Cl) = 3.0 and EN (H) = 2.1 (you can search these values in a periodic table)
/\EN = 3.0 - 2.1 = 0.9

0.9 < 1.7

I hope this helped you out!

How does the size change when an atom forms a cation and when an atom forms an anion?
mario62 [17]
<span>A cation is an atom that loses a valence electron. When a valence electron is released there is one electron less to create a repulsive force. The loss of a repulsive force will allow the atom to pull tighter together. An anion would therefore be larger in size due to increased repulsion of the valence electrons.</span>

What is the volume of a sample of liquid mercury that has a mass of 76.2g, given that the density of mercury is 13.6g/mL?
nignag [31]
Hey there!

D  = m / V

13.6 = 76.2 / V

V = 76.2 / 13.6

V = 5.602 mL
