6 0

1. carbon dioxide is a gas at low temperatures at mars because in the oxidizing environment organic compounds are oxidized to form carbon dioxide.

2. The 1 electron in outermost shell of Na is shared with 7 electrons of outermost shell of chlorine giving neutral charge on compound.

3. Electrostatic force of attraction is between the metal and non-metal.

4. When metal and non metal exchange electrons to form a neutral or no charge compound it is said to have form ionic bonds.

Explanation:

1. Temperature at Mars is very low -80 Fahrenheit  (-60 degrees) because water is not present in the planet. Carbon dioxide is abundant in Mars. The atmosphere is oxidizing at Mars which oxidizes the organic compounds and forms carbon dioxide.

2. NaCl combines by sharing of electrons forming ionic bonding. Different atoms of the different element share electrons to form ionic bonds. Such bond is formed when electrons is transferred between the atoms. In the NaCl, Na has 1 electron (electropositive) in its outer shell and chlorine has 7 electrons (electronegative). Both share the electrons getting their octet complete and a neutral charge on the compound formed.

3. Electrostatic force of attraction is between the metal and non-metal when bond is formed. The ionic bonds is formed between metal and non metals when electron exchange takes place. The electrostatic force is the attraction between two opposite charges on the ion.

4. When a metal and non metal exchange electrons in which metal is electropositive and non metal is electronegative the bonds form is called ionic bond. The electron is transferred from metal to non metal and thus giving neutral charge on the compound i.e. the outer shell has its octet complete.

"Atoms of magnesium and oxygen form ions and ionic bonds "The difference is that instead of having each atom gain or lose one el
Tanzania [10]

Explanation:

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. To attain noble gas configuration it is necessary for the magnesium atom to lose two valence electrons and therefore, it forms Mg^{2+} ions.

On the other hand, atomic number of oxygen atom is 8 and its electronic distribution is 2, 6. To attain noble gas configuration it needs to gain two electrons. And, on gaining the electrons it forms O^{2-} ions.

Hence, when both magnesium and oxygen ions chemically combine with each other then it forms the compound magnesium oxide (MgO).

This is because magnesium transfer its two valence electrons to the oxygen atom and due to the formation of opposite charges on these atoms they get attracted towards each other.

The mechanism for producing a concentrated urine involves all of the following except
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is "obligatory water reabsorption in the proximal convoluted tubule".

Explanation:

The mechanism for producing concentrated urine cannot include the obligatory reabsorption of water in the proximal convoluted tubule since this process is part of the nephron, the system that filters the blood. Glucose and amino acids are reabsorbed almost entirely, as are approximately 70% of filtered potassium and 80% of bicarbonate.

Have a nice day!
