Ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water. ... The heavier water displaces the lighter ice, so ice floats to the top. One consequence of this is that lakes and rivers freeze from top to bottom, allowing fish to survive even when the surface of a lake has frozen over

An atom of which of these elements most likely forms an anion? A. AI B. Br C. Ca D. Mg
Papessa [141]
The answer is B. A good way determine this is how far right the element is on the periodic table. The further right the element is, the more electronegative it is meaning it is more willing to accept an electron. This can be explained using the valence electrons and how many need to be added or removed to complete the octet. The further right you are, the easier it is for the element to just gain a few electrons instead of loose a bunch. Noble gases are the exception to this since they don't normally react though.
