Answer:

See detailed answer with explanation below.

Explanation:

Valence electrons are electrons found on the outermost shell of an atom. They are the electrons in an atom that participate in chemical combination. Recall that the outermost shell of an atom is also referred to as its valence shell. Let us consider an example; if we look at the atom, sodium-11, its electronic configuration is 2,8,1. The last one electron is the valence electron of sodium which is found in its outermost or valence shell.

Positive ions are formed when electrons are lost from the valence shell of an atom. For instance, if the outermost electron in sodium is lost, we now form the sodium ion Na^+ which is a positive ion. Positive ions possess less number of electrons compared to their corresponding atoms.

Negative ions are formed when one or more electrons is added to the valence shell of an atom. A negative ion possesses more electrons than its corresponding atom. For example, chlorine(Cl) contains 17 electrons but the chloride ion (Cl^-) contains 18 electrons.

In molecular compounds, a bond is formed when two electrons are shared between the bonding atoms. Each bonding atom may contribute one of the shared electrons (ordinary covalent bond) or one of the bonding atoms may provide the both shared electrons (coordinate covalent bond). The shared pair may be located at an equidistant position to the nucleus of both atoms. Similarly, the electron may be drawn closer to the nucleus of one atom than the other (polar covalent bond) depending on the electro negativity of the two bonding atoms.

The electrons are shared in order to complete the octet of each atom by so doing, the both bonding atoms now obey the octet rule. For example, two chlorine atoms may come together to form a covalent bond in which each chlorine atom has an octet of electrons on its outermost shell.

the existence of a vacancy in a crystal decreases the energy of the material i. not enough information to determine ii. false ii
enot [183]

iii. True. The existence of a vacancy in a crystal decreases the energy of the material.

One of the scientific disciplines called crystallography examines how the atoms in a solid crystal are arranged. When molecules are linked together in a regular way, these crystals are created.

The mechanical, physical, and optical properties of a material can alter when crystal flaws are present. The strength of the material can be impacted by a flaw.

An irregularity in the atoms' regular geometrical arrangement within a crystalline material is referred to as a crystal defect. These flaws are caused by the solid being deformed, cooling quickly from a high temperature, or being exposed to high-energy radiation (such as X-rays or neutrons). because the vacancy cause defects and the crystal structure is disturbed this causes a decrease in energy.
