Answer:
An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has an electric charge. When an atom loses an electron, it loses a negative charge and becomes a positive ion. When an atom gains an electron, it gains a negative charge and becomes a negative ion. a sodium ion forms when a sodium atom loses one electron and becomes positively charged. a chloride ion forms when a chlorine atom gains one electron and becomes negatively charged.

Answer:
1= Magnesium
2 = Option 3 = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶
Explanation:
An electrically neutral atom consist of equal number of protons and electrons.
The answer for 1st q is magnesium because the electronic configuration showed twelve number of electrons. The atomic number of magnesium is twelve that's why this configuration is of Mg.
Mg₁₂ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²
The second answer is option three because has atomic number ten and third electronic configuration have ten electrons.
Ne₁₀ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶
It is stable electronic configuration. Neon is inert because of this electronic configuration. The outer most shell is completely filled.
<span>A cation is an atom that loses a valence electron. When a valence electron is released there is one electron less to create a repulsive force. The loss of a repulsive force will allow the atom to pull tighter together. An anion would therefore be larger in size due to increased repulsion of the valence electrons.</span>
Answer:
P_2 =0.51 atm
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume (V1) = 2.50 L
Temperature (T1) = 298 K
Volume (V2) = 4.50 L
at standard temperature and pressure;
Pressure (P1) = 1 atm
Temperature (T2) = 273 K
Pressure P2 = ??
Using combined gas law:
