Valence electrons are found by looking at what energy level the atom is on the periodic table. These valence electrons are the outermost electrons which can greatly impact the properties of the atoms. They are the most important electrons from the atoms, because they determine the function and the reactivity of an atom.

<span>Valence electrons are found by looking at what Group the atom is in on the periodic table.
When electron is associated with an atom, they will form a chemical bond. and atoms with a similar number of the electron are a group within every Periodic Table because they all have similar bonding behavior.</span>

The correct answer that explains similarities between metal and Metalloids as regards the question is They both conduct electricity

Metalloids can be regarded as elements that are similar to metals, this is because they posses valence orbitals which is described as highly delocalized over macroscopic volumes.

As a result of this they can serve as electrical conductors.

metalloids posses small energy gap which is located between the valence band as well as the conduction band, as a result of this they are considered as intrinsic semiconductors when compare to pure conductors like metal.

Example of metal is Calcium, sodium and that of Metalloids are silicon and germanium

Therefore, metal and Metalloids are similar because of their conductivity of electricity

Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. what would be the mass of a sample whose volume is 10.0 cm3?

anastassius [24]

Hey there!

Density = 2.70 g/cm³

Volume = 10.0 cm³

Therefore:

Mass = density * volume

Mass = 2.70 * 10.0

Mass = 27.0 g

Three different atoms or atomic cations with 3 electrons.

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

$Li, Be^+, B^{2+}$

Explanation:

To answer this question successfully, we need to remember that atoms are neutral species, since the number of protons, the positively charged particles, is equal to the number of electrons, the negatively charged particles. That said, we may firstly find an atom which has 3 electrons (and, as a result, 3 protons, as it should be neutral).

The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of an element. We firstly may have an atom with 3 protons and 3 electrons (atomic number of 3, this is Li).

Similarly, we may take the atomic number of 4, beryllium, and remove 1 electron from it. Upon removing an electron, it would become beryllium cation, $Be^+$ .

We may use the same logic going forward and taking the atomic number of 5. This is boron. In this case, we need to remove 2 electrons to have a total of 3 electrons. Removal of 2 electrons would yield a +2-charged cation: $B^{2+}$ .

When magnesium metal is heated in air it begins to release large amounts of heat and light. What kind of a reaction is this an e

Salsk061 [2.6K]

It is called exothermic reaction because it releases heat and light and it is called combustion reaction because it is reacting and is being oxidised by O2 to MgO. It can also be called as oxidation reaction since Mg is oxidised to MgO.
