Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
Magnesium is an alkali earth metal and chlorine is a nonmetal. Due to this, and their differences in electronegativity, the elements form an ionic bond. Since magnesium has two valence electrons, it will give them up to two chlorine atoms (which has 7 valence electrons), which needs them to complete its octet. From this, magnesium forms a cation, and will have the ion formula Mg(2+). The two chlorine atoms form anions, and will have the ion formula Cl(1-).
Terms:
- Cation: a positively charged ion
- Anion: a negatively charge ion.
- Electronegativity: the tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Definitely not in the cell theory
There are two types of fluid in the body extracellular fluid and intracellular fluid (ECF and ICF), together they are account for total body water.
The Sodium (Na+) ion is at higher concentration in the extracellular fluid than in the intracellular fluid. The function of extracellular fluid is that it provide cells to watery environment so that they can easily live and perform their function.
Answer:
Some metals can be extracted from compounds by heating with carbon atom because they are less reactive than carbon and some metals cannot be extracted because they are more reactive than carbon atom.
Explanation: If the metal is less reactive than carbon atom so the carbon atoms make bond with oxide or other atom present with metal and the metal is free from that oxide or that element. But if the reactivity of metal is higher than carbon is unable to remove the oxide or element.
