2 Points What causes an ionic bond?

Biology

LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed when one atom (usually a metal) donates its valence electrons to another atom (usually a non-metal) so they attain stable electron configuration. The two atoms become joined by electrostatic forces which result from the charges acquired by the atoms as a result of donating or receiving electrons.

An example is NaCl. Na (2.8.1) donates its one valence electron to achieve the stable configuration of (2.8.8) while CL (2.8.7) receives the electron to achieve stable electron configuration of 2.8.8. The Na is left with a positive charge while Cl is left with a negative charge. The two charged atoms attract each other and form an ionic bond.

-It's E-Coli, but it's scientific name is what you said, "Diarrheagenic Escherichia Coli"

-Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach Cramps, Bloody Diarrhea (Ew, I know), Fever (101 F, 38.3 C), Malaise, Dehydration, Loss of appetite

-All age groups can be affected by E Coli, but the elderly and the young can be the most at risk

-Wash your food, keep it clean, keep raw meats away from other foods to avoid cross-contamination, do NOT defrost meat on table tops or counters

-Symptoms last 5-10 days, staying hydrated and staying rested helps you;  Antidiarrheals should NOT be taken, but Antibiotics taken in portions, like Trimethoprim or Sulfamethoxazole are fine, although e-coli is known to go away on its own.

What happens when an antigen on a red blood cell comes in contact with the antibody designed to seek it out? why would this be a
AlladinOne [14]
The effect that most likely will happen when the antigen in the red blood cell is contacted with the antibody that is marked to be seek out is that it will cause a reaction of agglutination. It is a bad thing because if agglutination occurs, there will be the presence of clumping, where the blood will not be able to flow in its natural state.
