The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.
Explanation:
Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).
So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons.
You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.
You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.
Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.
Answer:
I got you... 2 amino acids are linked to each other by a peptide linkage. A peptide linkage is formed when carboxyl group of one amino acid combine with the amine group of the other and during this process, a water molecule is removed.
The given tripeptide will have 2 peptide bonds. To draw the structure of given tripeptide, we will arrange them in the given order and then we will remove 2 water molecules to form 2 peptide bonds.

Hope this helps:)
Answer: Thomson
Explanation: It verified J. J. Thomson's work on the atomic structure.
A polar molecule is a molecule whose ends have opposite electric charges. An example of a polar molecule is H2O or water. Water has 1 side which is positive and the other side which is negative. It is a dipole which means that the two sides are not having the same charges.
