The electron sea model for metals suggest that the valence electrons drift freely around the metal cations.

Answer: B

Explanation

The sea model of electron is used for describing the mechanism of metallic bonding.

The metallic bonding generally occurs between 2 or more metals leading to the formation of alloys.

According to electron sea model, the electrons which contributes to the metallic bond are mostly the valence electrons of the atoms, these valence electrons get de-localized and can move freely around the nuclei of other atoms.

Overall, it seems like nuclei of positive charge is surrounded by sea of negative electrons.

Answer-   The correct option among all the options given is option C .

Explanation- Electron sea model is named because there are more than half of the periodic table covered by metals and the way they react among themselves is completely different from the way they react with other members of the group.

Valence electrons  that are present in metals in such cases such electrons are free to roam about and drift about cations.

On the basis of significant figures, the accuracy of measurement made using an analytical balance is more reliable.

<h3>What is an analytical balance?</h3>

An analytical balance is a special type of weighing balance that has a reputation for obtaining the mass of very small objects even as low as milligrams. It consists of a transparent glass casing and a scale.

On the basis of significant figures, the use of an analytical balance to determine the weight will improve the accuracy of the determination since it determines the mass to more significant figures.

One type of static electricity is the lightning in a thunder and lightning storm. Clouds become negatively charged as ice
Luden [163]

Answer:

The last answer would be correct because if you have ever done it before you would know that rubbing your feet (just like the rubbing of ice crystals) on the carpet will create the energy you need, then once you touch the metal it creates that spark!

Explanation:

hoped that helped-I would be thankful for brainliest ;)

What do helium (He), neon (Ne), and argon (Ar) have in common?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The answer is: D

Explanation:

A. They have the same number of electron energy shells.  Is false, all the elements are in different periods so, they have different number of lectron energy shells.

B. They are all Halogens.  No, is wrong, halogens are F, Cl ,Br

C. They have the same number of electrons.  is wrong, if they had the same number of electrons they must be they same element and they aren't the same.

D. They are all Noble gases. Yes, it's true they are noble gases, they are the first group in the periodic table from the right.
