Answer:
The nucleus is a collection of particles called protons, which are positively charged, and neutrons, which are electrically neutral. Protons and neutrons are in turn made up of particles called quarks. The chemical element of an atom is determined by the number of protons, or the atomic number, Z, of the nucleus.
Answer:
Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.
Explanation:
3rd one:
it is very reactive because it does not have a full Valence shell.
this is because it's in group 1 so it has one electron in its outer shell, and it wants to have a full outer shell ( which it can gain by losing the electron in a reaction).
Hope this helps :)
