Atomic oxygen would most likely form its most stable monatomic ion when it: 1. elevates one electron from the s orbital to a p o

rbital. 2. elevates one electron from a p orbital to a d orbital. 3. loses one electron. 4. gains one electron. 5. gains two electrons. 6. loses two electrons.

Answer:

5. gains two electrons.

Explanation:

In order to determine the most stable monoatomic ion of oxygen, we need to consider the octet rule: atoms will gain, lose or share electrons to complete their valence shell with 8 electrons.

Oxygen is in the Group 16 in the Periodic Table, so it has 6 valence electrons. Therefore, it will gain two electrons to have the electron configuration of the closest noble gas.

Partial charges will exist on each atom when a bond exists between two atoms with different electronegativities. Since the atom
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

negative, positive, increase

Explanation:

From the given question,  

During the formation of bond, between two atoms with difference between their electronegativity-

  • The more electronegative atom, will pull the electrons towards itself , and hence acquires a partial negative charge,

And,

  • The less electronegative atom, will acquire a partial positive charge.
  • The more the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the more would be the magnitude of partial charge.
  • And, the less would be the difference between the electronegativity of the atoms, the lesser would be the magnitude of partial charge.

8.310x10^2 – 7.210x10^1<br><br>[?]x10^[?]​
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

7.589\times 10^{2}

Explanation:

The expression can be solved mathematically as follows:

1) 8.310\times 10^{2}-7.210\times 10^{1} Given

2) 8.310\times 10^{1+1} - 7.210\times 10^{1} Definition of sum

3) (8.310\times 10^{1})\times 10^{1}-7.210\times 10^{1} a^{m+n} = a^{m}\cdot a^{n}/Associative property

4) (8.310\times 10^{1}-7.210)\times 10^{1} Distributive property

5) (83.100-7.210)\times 10^{1} Multiplication

6) 75.89\times 10^{1} Subtraction.

7) (7.589\times 10^{1})\times 10^{1} Multiplication/Associative property

8) 7.589\times (10^{1}\times 10^{1}) Associative property

9) 7.589\times 10^{2} a^{m+n} = a^{m}\cdot a^{n}/Result

nasty-shy [4]
The correct answer is:
d) No, it is not feasible. three metallic ions cannot provide the exact number of electrons that one sulfur needs for the ionic bond.
Because Sulfur is divalent so it need to gain 2 electrons from metal so if we have 3 metals they can't provide only two electrons only.
