Unstable elements tend to combine with other elements to form

Chemistry

Answer: Compounds.

Explanation:

Compounds are formed when an unstable element combines with other elements, they do this by sharing electrons within their outmost shell. Compounds forms when there is a chemical bonding between two or more elements. Examples of compounds includes carbon dioxide (C, O) water (H and O), Sodium chloride (Na, Cl), methane, etc.

Answer:

Compounds

Explanation:

The reason why elements react is to attain stability. A compound is thus formed when two or more elements of different kind combine. For instance, An atom of sodium has only one electron in its outer shell. An atom of chlorine has seven outer electrons (almost a full shell).  If the lone sodium outer electron is transferred to the chlorine atom, both atoms would have full outer shells and so would achieve stability. The end product is sodium chloride which is a compound.

Explanation:

Substances generally tends to specialize as either oxidizing or reducing agents.

An oxidizing agent is an electron acceptor which causes a co-reactant to be oxidized in a reaction.

Examples are:

   Non-metals especially oxygen and the halogens.

Other examples are H₂SO₄ , HNO₃, KMnO₄, K₂Cr₂O₇

What is the number of electrons will chlorine most likely gain/lose
LuckyWell [14K]

Gain 1.

This is because of Chlorine's placement on the periodic table. Chlorine is a Halogen, thus being located in group 17 or 7A. This means it is one of the closest elements to being a Noble Gas or group 18/8A.

Chlorine has 7 valence electrons, and in order for it to become a Noble Gas, it needs 8. Cl- is typically the symbol used to represent this as Chlorine needs to gain an electrons instead of lose; once Chlorine gains the electron, it will be stable.

This also means that Chlorine has a high ionization energy or, in simpler terms, it would be difficult to remove an electron from Chlorine.

Hope this helps!
