Answer:
4) transferred from the valence shell of one atom to the valence shell of another atom
Explanation:
Electrons are located outside of the nucleus which contains the protons and the neutrons.
For bonds to form, valence electrons located in the outermost shell electrons are involved. These are the valence electrons. These outer shell electrons can be shared or transferred between two combining atoms to form stable atoms.
In ionic bonds, the electrons are transferred from one specie to another. The atom that loses the electrons becomes positively charged and the receiving atom becomes negatively charged. This is the crux of ionic bonds.
Answer:
The correct option is C.
Explanation:
Carbohydrates are one of the macro molecules that are consumed by living organisms. The end product of carbohydrate is glucose. Glucose is a very important fuel that the body cells used to produce energy, which they use to carry out their daily activities. Glucose is also known as blood sugar and it is the only fuel that living cells can use for the production of ATP. Other food macro molecules such as lipids and proteins can also be converted to glucose if there is a need for that. Glucose is always stored in the body in form of glycogen.
The statement given in option C about glucose is wrong because glucose is a monosaccharide and not a disaccharide.
Answer:
ion
However atoms may gain or lose electrons in ordinary chemical reactions. If an atom has the same number of electrons as protons, it is a neutral atom. If it has a net charge, (more or less electrons than protons) it is an ion. If it has more electrons than protons it has a net negative charge and is known as an anion.
