The correct answer is a metal atom forms a cation, and a nonmetal atom forms an anion. This is because metals are less electronegative than nonmetals and will therefore give electrons to nonmetals. Atoms that give up electrons will have a positive charge therefore becoming a cation while atoms that accept electrons will have a negative charge therefore becoming an anion.
Ions that have the same charge can't be attracted to each other since it takes a positive and negative charge to cause attractive forces.
A less electronegative atom will transfer electrons to a more electronegative atom.
A metal (cation) can pull electrons from another metal (not an ion) but that does not form an attractive force between the two metals (You will learn more about this when you go over reduction potentials, redox reactions, and electrochemistry).
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Answer:
La palabra bicarbonato es un término químico para referirse a una sal ácida del ácido carbónico en combinación con un metal. ... Pero si sólo está sustituido un átomo de hidrógeno por el metal, entonces obtenemos un bicarbonato o carbonato ácido, por ejemplo, bicarbonato sódico: CO3H Na.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
D. It decreases and the pH increases.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- pH is a measure of the hydorgen ion concentration of a solution. Solutions with a high concentration of hydrogen ions have a low pH and solutions with a low concentrations of H+ ions have a high pH.
- <em><u>[H+] and [OH-] are inversely related. Therefore; As the concentration of H+ increases the pH decreases. Since the concentrations of H+ and OH- are inversely proportional, as one goes up, the other goes down. </u></em>
- <em><u>Therefore, an increase in OH- concentration will correspond to an increase in pH and a decrease in the concentration of H+.</u></em>
