Answer:
Isotopes are basically atoms of an element that have an unequal number of neutrons and protons. Of course the proton number remains the same, but the neutron number either decreases or increases, which leads to an overall change in mass. However, no chemical properties of the atom/element are changed as the electrons are the same number and do not react. In regards to Helium 4, the original number of neutrons in Helium is 2, and protons 2 as well. We see an equal number of neutrons and protons, hence an unchanged mass, and the element is <em>not</em> an isotope.
Answer:
Urban sprawl is the development in urban areas
Due to which people are migrating from rural areas to urban areas to get the jobs or their income sources due to the opportunities.
So, as population is increasing in the urban areas. The food consumption and water consumption will also increase.
So, this is how urban sprawl affect water consumption.
3 Chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion.
In ionic bonds, metals atoms loses all its outermost shell electrons to form a cation. While, non metal atoms gains however many electrons in order to make its outermost electron shell be 8 (or 2 if there's only one shell).
Therefore, form the periodic table, we can see that aluminum has a atomic number of 13, which makes its electron arrangement be 2,8,3. So, in order to form a aluminum ion, an Al atom must lose 3 electrons. On the other hand, Chlorine has a atomic number of 17, which means it has the electron configuration of 2,8,7. It has to gain only 1 electron to have 8 outermost shell electron.
Thereofre, 3 Chlorine atom are required to gain all 3 electrons given out by just 1 aluminum ion.
