Are there any choices? Because from what the question is it seems like we need choices to help
Answer:
minimum energy
Explanation:
minimum energy means maximum stability
please mark me brainliest
An atom becomes an Ion (a) if it gains one or more electron(s) or (b) if it loses one or more electron(s). When it gains electrons it becomes negatively charged and is called an anion. When it loses electron(s) it becomes positively charged and is called a cation.
The table shows the density and volume of four liquid samples. The four liquids do not mix with each other. What is the order in which the layers will be formed, from top to bottom, if the four liquids are poured into a beaker and allowed to settle
Mg: [Ne] 3s2. The second ionization energy of Mg is larger than the first because it always takes more energy to remove an electron from a positively charged ion than from a neutral atom. The third ionization energy of magnesium is enormous, however, because the Mg2+ ion has a filled-shell electron configuration.
