The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds. It can be positive, negative or zero.

Physics
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<u>In an ionic bond , an element will have to lose or gain electrons.</u>

Explanation:

  • Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.
  • Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.
  • <em>The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).</em>

∴

  • <em>The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds cannot be zero.</em>

A car moved 60 meters west in 2 hours. What is its average velocity?
Fofino [41]

Explanation: Velocity is the displacement of an object during a specific unit of time. Two measurements are needed to determine velocity. Displacement and time. Displacement includes a direction, so velocity also includes a direction. Speed with direction. Velocity can be an average velocity or an instantaneous velocity. Units for velocity are the same as for speed: m/s, km/h, and mph. Delta x(Δx) is the symbol used for displacement. Delta (Δ) means to "change in." Δx means to "change in position." Δx is calculated by final position minus initial position. Velocity formula: → v=Δx/t as a fraction.

v=Δx/t

v=\frac{xf-xi}{t}= \frac{60m}{2}=30m

<em><u>Final answer is 30.</u></em>

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

It takes 160 kj of work to accelerate a car from 24.0 m/s to 27.5 m/s. what is the car's mass?
ankoles [38]
Work-Energy :W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
Vo = 24.0 m/s Initial speed 
 Vf = 27.5 m/s  Final speed 

W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
160 kj = 1/ 2 m ( 27.5^2  -24.0 ^2)
160kj =  4680 x m
convert kilo joules to jeoules                     160000 j = 4689 xm
m = 160000 j/4689
m = 34.18 kg

A 50-kg copper block initially at 140°C is dropped into an insulated tank that contains 90 L of water at 10°C. Determine the fin
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

16.33°C

Explanation:

Applying,

Heat lost by copper = heat gained by water

cm(t₁-t₃) = c'm'(t₃-t₂).............. Equation 1

Where c = specific heat capacity of copper, m = mass of copper, c' = specific heat capacity of water, m' = mass of water, t₁ = initial temperature of copper, t₂ = initial temperature of water, t₃ = final equilibrium temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 50 kg, t₁ = 140°C, m' = 90 L = 90 kg, t₂ = 10°C

Constant: c = 385  J/kg°C, c' = 4200J/kg°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

50(385)(140-t₃) = 90(4200)(t₃-10)

(140-t₃) = 378000(t₃-10)/19250

(140-t₃) = 19.64(t₃-10)

140-t₃ = 19.64t₃-196.6

19.64t₃+t₃ = 196.4+140

20.64t₃ = 336,4

t₃ = 336.4/20.6

t₃ = 16.33°C

For a chair to be balanced on one leg, where must the center of gravity be located? A. in the center of the seat B. toward the f
mixer [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is c

Explanation:

When a body is in rotational equilibrium, the relationship must be met

     ∑ τ = 0

     Σ F d = 0

therefore the forces that are exerted on the body that are represented in the center of gravity are different from zero, therefore, to maintain balance the distance must be zero, therefore the center of gravity must be above the leg where the body is balancing

The correct answer is c
