Answer:
covalent bonds
Explanation:
ionic transfer of e^- ions formed (charges)
ionic=non-metal+ metal
ex: F+Ca
covalent sharing e^- no true charges
covalent= non-metal+ non-metal
ex: F+P
( my notes)
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The periodic table shows the atomic number and mass number of each element.
We know that the atomic number shows;
- The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom
- The number of electrons in the neutral atom of the element.
So we obtain the number of protons and electrons by looking at the atomic number shown in the periodic table.
We also know that;
Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons
Since number of protons = atomic number of the atom
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number
Hence we obtain the number of protons by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number given in the periodic table.
