The penetrating power of alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays varies greatly. Alpha particles can be blocked by a few pieces of paper. Beta particles pass through paper but are stopped by aluminum foil. Gamma rays are the most difficult to stop and require concrete, lead, or other heavy shielding to block them.
Answer:
the difference in electronegativity is so large (2.04) that the bonding electrons spend almost all their time on the nitrogen atom.
Explanation:
Because calcium loses 2 electrons to become Ca2+, and nitrogen gains 3 electrons to become N3−, you need two calcium atoms and three nitrogen atoms in order to form a neutral compound.
A chemical reaction does happen between sodium and water to form Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) and Hydrogen Gas (H-2)
In sodium there are 11 electrons
In chlorine there are 17 electrons
There are 17 protons in chlorine
There are 11 protons in sodium
