The (2) calcium atom, because when looking at the periodic table, we see that the calcium atom is in a location where according to the periodic table, has the lower electronegativities in respect to the other three choices. We see that it also has a lower electronegativity value than the others. Electronegativity is the attraction constant for the electrons in a chemical bond. The higher the electronegativity, the higher the attraction of the electrons. Fluorine has the highest electronegativity with 4.0.

With respect to a fixed point, motion is defined as a change in-<br><br> A)speed<br> B)position
Arisa [49]

Answer:

With respect to a fixed point, motion is defined as a change in<u> position.</u>

Explanation:

MOTION -:  Motion is described as the fact in which any object or body changes its position over the time with respect to a fixed point .

Motion is defined as displacement, distance, velocity , acceleration, speed , and time in mathematical terms. By linking an observer to a frame of reference and measuring the shift in the position of the body with a change in time relative to that frame, the motion of a body is observed.

Valence electrons will either ______________ or ______________ to form molecules.
Aneli [31]

Answer:

ionic or covalent

Explanation:

The outermost electrons -- the valence electrons -- are able to interact with other atoms, and, depending on how those electrons interact with other the atoms, either an ionic or covalent bond is formed, and the atoms fuse together to form a molecule.
