As a chlorine atom becomes a negative ion, the atom blanks an electron

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andrew [12]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: increases by

As a chlorine atom becomes a negative ion, the atom "increases by" an electron

Explanation:

Chlorine atom has an atomic number of 17, and an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5 showing 7 valence electrons in its outermost shell.

Hence, it receives a single electron to achieve a stable octet structure with electronic configuration of

1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6. Therefore, Cl- is a univalent negative ion with 8 valence electrons in its outermost shell. The increase is shown below

Cl + e- --> Cl-

Thus, as a chlorine atom becomes a negative ion, the atom "increases by" an electron

Temperate deciduous trees lose their leaves in Fall. Explain why trees in temperate rainforest and tropical rainforest don’t los
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

So trees in temperate don't lose their leaves because the weather events aren't harsh enough.

Trees in tropical rainforest don't lose their leaves because they are a different type of tree known as evergreens that are green all year round.

Explanation:

Ok so first we'll define some things

Deciduous Trees=  Trees that lose all of their leaves for part of the year.

Trees shed their leaves trees to try and survive harsh weather events.

Temperate deciduous trees lose their leaves in fall to better survive the winter conditions of extreme cold and reduced daylight.

Temperate rainforests = An area that doesn't experience extremely cold or extremely hot temperatures or what we would call harsh weather events.

Broad-leaved trees in tropical rainforests are known evergreen, they are known as this as they are green all year round.

How does the body maintain the equilibrium between oxygen and hemoglobin at high altitudes?
mario62 [17]
Individuals who are both born and raised in high altitudes will have their bodies re-establish equilibrium shift by producing more hemoglobin, which allows for more oxygen to be bound to the heme protein and thus cause an equilibrium shift to the right.
