The correct answer is a metal atom forms a cation, and a nonmetal atom forms an anion. This is because metals are less electronegative than nonmetals and will therefore give electrons to nonmetals. Atoms that give up electrons will have a positive charge therefore becoming a cation while atoms that accept electrons will have a negative charge therefore becoming an anion.
Ions that have the same charge can't be attracted to each other since it takes a positive and negative charge to cause attractive forces.
A less electronegative atom will transfer electrons to a more electronegative atom.
A metal (cation) can pull electrons from another metal (not an ion) but that does not form an attractive force between the two metals (You will learn more about this when you go over reduction potentials, redox reactions, and electrochemistry).
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
Answer:
Concentration of unknown solution is 0.0416 M
Explanation:
As we know
Absorbance is equal to the product of molar absorptivity of KMnO4 m, path length and concentration
From the given set of graphical data, it is clear that the absorbance vs concentration is a straight line.
From the graph, we can obtain-
Y = 5.73 X – 0.0065
Absorbance = 0.232
0.232 = 5.73 X – 0.0065
X = 0.0416
Concentration of unknown solution is 0.0416 M
Between atoms (one metall and one non metall) form an ionic bond(NaCl)
Ar (argon) has 18 electrons
Cl- would give you 18 electrons
F- would give you 10 electrons
Li+ would give you 2 electrons
Na+ would give you 10 electrons
Cl- would be the correct answer
Answer:
Fiddlehead
Explanation:
Young fronds are called Fiddleheads
because of how they are coiled
