Answer:

Metal

Explanation:

Metals conduct electricity, because they have free and mobile electrons that can carry the electricity and spread it around. Nonmetals usually cannot conduct electricity, but there are a few exceptions.

soaps do not work well in hard waters. But they can still be effected it large quantities of soap are added to water. Explain wh
Nookie1986 [14]

They can still be effected it large quantities of soap are added to water

because more soap eliminates the effect the minerals in hard water has on

its cleaning capacity.

Hard water contains minerals such as

  • Calcium
  • Magnesium
  • Iron etc.

They reduce the cleaning capacity of the soap. This is why soft water is

preferably used as it doesn't contain these minerals.

When more soap is added, the effect of the minerals reduces thereby

bringing about very little or no effect on the cleaning capacity of the soap.

Look at the dots around each symbol and the energy levels from the resources above;
Anton [14]

Hello! Here's the answer I was able to come up with:

<em>Why does Na have only one dot?</em>

Sodium, or Na, has only one valence electron.  (This makes the atom tend to participate in ionic bonding and "give" its single valence electron to an atom like chlorine.)

<em>Why do none of these diagrams show more than 8 dots?</em>

It is physically impossible for an atom to have more than 8 electrons in its valence layer, according to the Octet Rule.

<em>What relationship do you notice between the dots in these two charts?</em>

The dot diagram for each element represents the number of electrons each element will have in its outermost, or valence, shell. (2-8-8)

<em>The number of dots that hydrogen and helium have in their dot diagram is the same as the number of electrons shown for them on the Periodic Table. Why?</em>

An atom can have a maximum of two electrons in its innermost layer. Hydrogen and helium have only one and two electrons, respectively, so they don't have enough electrons to actually have more than one layer. Therefore, their outermost layer is, in fact, their only layer. This is why the number of dots that hydrogen and helium have in their dot diagram is the same as the number of electrons shown for them on the Periodic Table.

What would be the effect on the nucleus of an atom if it emitted one alpha particle and one gamma ray
Oksana_A [137]
Unstable, radioactive atom emits alpha and gamma ray to transform into a stable atom.

Emitting an alpha particle, decreases the mass number by four and atomic number by two.
Emitting gamma ray reduces the excess energy of the radioactive atom.
