Answer:
compound
Explanation:
because now there are one together
Answer:
K loses one electron to CI
Explanation:
The lewis electron dot notation shows only the chemical symbol of the element surrounded by dots to represent the valence electrons.
We have atom of K with one valence electrons
Cl with 7 valence electrons
For an electrostatic attraction to occur, both particles must be charged. To do this, one of the species must lose an electron, and the other gains it.
This will make both species attain a stable octet;
Hence, K will lose 1 electron and Cl will gain the electrons.
Even though Hydrogen is originally in group 1, based on this property, we can say it is in group 6.
Because:
Group 6 would mean that it only needs 2 more valence electrons till the octet (8 valence electrons). This would make it reactive, yet, in normal conditions, unlike group 7.
