They have 6 electron in their outer orbital. That means they want 2 electrons to be stable. Since metals have the tendency to give electron oxygen receives 2 electrons. The answer is -2

What are the differences between cholesterol and ergosterole?​
Marat540 [252]
The difference between ergosterol and cholesterol is much more obvious in their interactions with POPC and DOPC. Whereas cholesterol induces a strong condensing effect that thickens both POPC and DOPC bilayers, ergosterol shows no condensing effect in POPC and DOPC at all.

Why are aldehydes more reactive than ketones?​
Simora [160]

Answer:

Aldehydes are typically more reactive than ketones due to the following factors. ... The carbonyl carbon in aldehydes generally has more partial positive charge than in ketones due to the electron-donating nature of alkyl groups. Aldehydes only have one e- donor group while ketones have two.

A hypothetical element, E, has two stable isotopes. One isotope has a natural abundance of 68.037% and has an atomic mass of 46.
I am Lyosha [343]
  • If the abundance of the first isotope is 68.037%, then the abundance of the second isotope is 100%-68.037%.

Substituting into the atomic mass formula,

47.574=(46.449)(0.68037)+x(1-0.68037)\\\\ 47.574=31.60250613+0.31963x\\\\15.97149387=0.31963x\\\\x \approx \boxed{49.969 \text{ u}}

Describe the properties of alkali metals. Based on their electronic arrangement, explain whether they exist alone in nature.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

- They are highly reactive metals

- They have low electro negativity

- They have low ionization energy

- They don't exist alone in nature

- They have low densities

Explanation:

Alkali metals are the elements in group 1 of the periodic table. They include Sodium, Lithium, Potassium e.t.c.

Due to the fact they have one atom in their outermost shell, they are very unstable because they easily react with other elements and are therefore don't exist alone in nature but combined with other elements for this same reason.

Since alkali metals don't easily attract other elements due to it's lone pair in the outer most shell, it can be said to have low electro negativity.

Also, they don't need energy to discharge their electrons since they are highly reactive due to their lone pair in the outermost shell and so we say they have low ionization energy.

Due to this reason, they also have low densities.
