<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Nitrogen (N)
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Atoms may lose or gain electrons to achieve stability. Metal atoms lose electrons to attain stable configuration, and as a result they form positively charged ions called cations.
- <u>Non-metals on the other hand gain electrons to attain stable configuration, and as a result form negatively charged ions called anions.</u>
- <u>Among the elements given above nitrogen (N) gains electrons to form a negatively charged ion called anion. </u>
Explanation:
When a brick is heated to a temperature between 20°C and 150°C, it loses most of the water added to the clay during the preparation phase. ... When the temperature starts to rise over 600°C, chemical changes begin to occur in the clay which give the brick colour, hardness and durability.
B) They have protons that are identical to the protons of all other elements
B: Painting over a metal surface in order to prevent rust is known as
rust proofing and it works by preventing oxygen and water from reaching
the metal surface thus preventing a redox reaction which would result in
rusting.
