Answer:
An atom that loses one or more valence electrons to become a positively charged ion is known as a cation, while an atom that gains electrons and becomes negatively charged is known as an anion.
Answer:
Explanation:
1. A measure of how quickly velocity is changing is the acceleration
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. The rate at which a body is changing its velocity is known as the acceleration.
It is measured in the unit m/s²
2. Speed in a given direction is the velocity
Velocity is a vector quantity which measures the magnitude of motion in a specific direction. It is simply speed in a given direction.
When we say a motorcycle travels at the rate of 5m/s due east, we are describing the velocity of such body.
3. Force that resists moving one object against another is the friction
Friction is a force that opposes motion. It prevents a body from moving.
4. Measure of the pull of gravity on an object Weight
Weight is a measure of the amount of gravitational force on a body. It is mathematically expressed as;
W = mg
W is the weight, m is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity
5 Tendency of an object to resist a change in motion is inertia
Inertia is the tendency of body to resist change in motion. It is the ability of a body to remain in a perpetual state of rest.
6 Size is the magnitude
Answer:
The elements in the alkaline earth metals group; beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), and radium (Ra), have two electrons in their outer electronic shell.
