Answer:
Chlorine
Explanation:
Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and a configuration of 2, 8, 7. In the outermost shell, it has 7 seven electrons which means that it needs just one more electron to attain an octet configuration in that shell. Therefore it's can react quickly with any nearby nucleophile.
Answer:
B. An ionized atom has a number of protons that is unequal to the number of electrons.
Explanation:
For a neutral atom , the number of proton and electron is equal. An ionized atom has either loss or gain electron, thereby making the number of proton and electron unequal. The answer B is true because an ionized atom has either loss or gain electron to make the number of electron and proton unequal.
Option A is incorrect because a cations holds a positive charge when it loss one or more electron not when it gains one or more electron(s). Anions possess negative charge for gaining electron(s).
Option C is not true because ions can also carry negative charges and they are called anions.
Option D is false because losing one or more electron will turn an atom to a cations.
Is a solid? has strong intermolecular forces?
Answer:
1. Evaporation
2. Condensation
3. Precipitation
4. Runoff
Explanation:
The water cycle shows how water moves on the earth as it passes through different phases.
Water on land is stored in oceans, rivers and other water bodies. This water coupled with those in plants and animals are turned into vapor through EVAPORATION. Evaporation facilitates the movement of water on the surface into the atmosphere.
In the atmosphere, the vapor condenses on dust particles found up there. The vapors forms a nuclei around the dust particles and water condenses at the saturated vapor pressure. This forms cloud.
As the water collects more and more, gravity forces the water to fall in form of PRECIPITATION. The precipitation can be in form of snow or rainfall.
When precipitation occurs, they move on the surface as SURFACE RUNOFFS. Some of the runoff goes back into oceans and rivers. Others infiltrates into the ground and collects in the ground water pool under the subsurface. Subsurface water can also get into into other water bodies when the water table coincides with the steam level.
The water in these bodies can then go into the cycle again. The sun is the source of energy for this process.
