Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A bond formed by donating electrons from one atom to another then the bond formed is known as ionic bond.

For example, sodium has one extra electron as its electronic configuration os 2, 8, 1 and chlorine has shortage of one electrons as chlorine's electronic configuration is 2, 8, 7.

So, sodium will donate one electron to chlorine atom and sodium itself will become positively charged ions. Therefore, it will result in the formation of NaCl by forming an ionic bond.

Thus, we can conclude that a metal atom loses electrons and becomes a positive ion describes a step in the process of forming an ionic bond.

A Flame test is an example of chemistry property. What evidence can you use to back your statement up?
Lena [83]
The flame test is a qualitative test used in chemistry to help determine the identity or possible identity of a metal or metalloid ion found in an ionic compound. If the compound is placed in the flame of a gas burner, there may be a characteristic color given off that is visible to the naked eye. And for the proof. The flame test provided evidence that specific atoms are present in compounds by the color of the flame. The metal atoms are what is responsible for the colors during the flame test. The color of the flame will be yellow-orange because Sodium (Na) is present in all the compounds that have a yellow-orange flame. Hope this helps! Mark brainly please!

if you are told to get 100 mL of stock solution to use to prepare smaller size sample for an experiment, which piece of glasswar
fgiga [73]

Answer:

A beaker  

Step-by-step explanation:

Specifically, I would use a 250 mL graduated beaker.

A beaker is appropriate to measure 100 mL of stock solution, because it's easy to pour into itscwide mouth from a large stock bottle.

You don't need precisely 100 mL solution.

If the beaker is graduated, you can easily measure 100 mL of the stock solution.

Even if it isn't graduated, 100 mL is just under half the volume of the beaker, and that should be good enough for your purposes (you will be using more precise measuring tools during the experiment).
