Answer:
what happens if i mix red with green?
Answer=3
Electrons carry a negative charge while protons carry a positive charge
Answer:
b. Mg & Cl
a. transferred
46
Explanation:
Ionic bonds form between metals and non-metals when electrons are transferred from one specie to another.
- The electrostatic attraction from the resulting ions forms the ionic bonds.
- A metal is electropositive and will readily donate electrons
- A non-metal is electronegative and will accept electrons.
- This creates two oppositely charge ions that attracts by means of ionic bonding.
Since Mg and Cl are the only metal - non-metal pair, and ionic bond will form between them.
2.
In the specie;
₄₇Ag¹⁺
47 is the atomic number of the element Ag.
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. For a specie in neutral state, the number of protons and electrons are the same.
- When an atom loses electron, it becomes positively charged.
- Here Ag has lost one electron and then, the number of electrons becomes 46.
- The number of protons is still 47
