Answer:

Anion ( F^-)

Explanation:

An anion is formed when a non metal receives an electron from metallic atom.

Fluorine atom has electronic configuration of 1S2 2S2 2P5. It therefore needs 1 electron to attain the noble gas configuration. Thus to do this, fluorine will receive 1 electron from metallic atom to form fluoride ion(F^-) with electronic configuration as 1s2 2s2 2p6 and thus forming ionic bond.

This can be seen when sodium react with fluorine to form sodium fluoride according to the equation

1. Na —> Na+ + e-

2. F + e- —> F-

Combining 1 and 2, we have:

Na + F + e- —> Na+ + F- + e-

Na + F —> Na+F-

The above illustration indicates ionic bonding as electron was transferred from the sodium atom to the fluorine atom, thus forming sodium ion (Na+) and fluorine ion(F-)

Answer:

An anion

Explanation:

An ion of flourine wife form an anion. What is an anion? An anion is a negatively charged atom.It occurs as a result of gain of electron by an atom to stabilize it's octet structure.

This is a common phenomenon for non metals and halogens are a good example of that which are strongly electronegative with electronic configuration of 2,7......

The answer would be "false" or the second option. A opinion is what you think on a certain subject and science is full of facts and opinions of other scientist which would mean your using someone else for your opinion just remember opinions is what you think about a subject and you can't use science for your opinion.

Hope this helps!

radioisotope actinium 225 has half life of 10 days, I begin with 16 kg of this isotope, how much will remain after 40 days?
Igoryamba
N(t)=N_{0}(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{\tau_{_\frac{1}{2}}}}\\\\
N_{0}=16kg\\
t=40days\\
\tau_{_\frac{1}{2}}}=10days\\\\\\
N(t)=16kg*(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{40}{10}}=16kg*\frac{1}{16}=1kg

These biological compounds are nonpolar and insoluble in water:
juin [17]
The biological compounds that are nonpolar and insoluble in water are lipids. It is a group of molecules that are naturally occurring which includes sterols, waxes, fats, fat-soluble vitamins and the like. These molecules are nonpolar molecules so basically the cannot be dissolved in a polar solvent like water.

Answer:

Energy is transferred from one object to another when a reaction takes place.

Explanation:

Energy comes in many forms and can be transferred from one object to another as heat, light, or motion, to name a few.  

The answer could be It is a well known fact that energy can neither be created and nor be destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

Now talking about your example in a typical light bulb electrical energy is converted into light energy and heat energy. Now when the electric current flows through the conductor/filament in the light bulb,this would cause vibrations and the free ions are more likely to go to an higher energy level,and when the ions come back to their original state,the difference in the two energy levels is usually emitted as a photon,thus light energy is obtained and the heat energy is the energy dissipated as a result of flow of electricity through the conductor.

Anything that gets transformed into light energy or in better words ElectroMagnetic Energy would be a result of this.

How are energy and mass connected during the formation of an atom?
Jlenok [28]
I think the right answer for this question is option A. The energy absorbed so the mass will be increased.
