Answer:Transition metals

Explanation: Elements that are metals tend to lose electrons and become positively charged ions called cations. Elements that are nonmetals tend to gain electrons and become negatively charged ions called anions. Metals that are located in column 1A of the periodic table form ions by losing one electron.

pychu [463]

Answer:

The physical properties of a solution are different from those of the pure solvent. ... Colligative properties are those physical properties of solutions of nonvolatile solutes that depend only on the number of particles present in a given amount of solution, not on the nature of those particles.

An atom's nucleus has 92 protons and its mass number is 235. how many neutrons are in the nucleus? what is the name of the atom
STALIN [3.7K]
The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom. 235-92 = 143 neutrons.
Element 92 is Uranium.

Uranium is also the highest atomic number element which exists in nature. All of the rest above element 92 only exist nuclear high-energy reactions (the transuranium elements), and most experience nuclear decay very quickly and form other elements with fewer protons.
