Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
It is known that metals are the species which readily lose an electron and tend to attain a positive charge.
For example, atomic number of sodium is 11 and its is an alkali metal. It electronic distribution is 2, 8, 1.
And, in order to attain stability it readily loses an electron and thus it become 
ion.
Also, it is known that species which tend to transfer or donate their valence electrons to other atoms tend to form ionic bond and the compound formed is known as ionic compound.
Therefore, we can conclude that the statement metal atoms held together by ionic bonds best describes a metal solid.
Answer:
4.36 g of Carbon
Solution:
Step 1: Calculate the %age of Carbon in given Solid as;
Mass of Carbon = 35.8 g
Mass of Hydrogen = 3.72
Total Mass = 35.8 g + 3.72 = 39.52 g
%age of Carbon = (35.8 g ÷ 39.52 g) × 100
%age of carbon = 90.58 %
Step 2: Calculate grams of Carbon in 4.82 g of given solid as;
Mass of Carbon = 4.82 g × (90.58 ÷ 100)
Mass of Carbon = 4.36 g
Answer:
When an atom attracts extra electrons it becomes a negative ion. The negative ion is larger than the original atom. The positive nucleus remains the same, with the same attractive force. However, this attractive force is now pulling on more electrons and therefore has less effect.
Or
Positive ions are formed by removing one or more electrons from the outermost region of the atom. The opposite is true of negative ions. When electrons are added to form an anion, the increased electron-electron repulsions cause the electrons to spread out more in space. Thus, anions are larger than their parent atoms.
Answer:
co2
Explanation:
because carbon is a gas product
That is false (please mark me brainliest)
