If an atom has 1 valance electron, will it gain or lose electrons when it bonds? How many? Why? What about with 7?

No it won't lose but it will gain and it gain up to it will fill 8 and because it need to satisfy the octet rule 7 will lose or gain electron and because it needs to stastify the octet rule by filling it up till 8 valence electron

If valence electron is 1, atom will gain 1 electron(in case of hydrogen) to complete its duplet to obtain stability. Atoms gain, lose or share electrons to gain stability. Every element tries to attain its nearest noble element. Example : He is the noble gas element with 2 valence electrons(stable in nature) whereas H(non-metal) has only 1 valence electron so it'll form electron bond with that element which requires 1 electron to complete its octet or duplet(2 valence electrons, ex: He). Whereas in case of metals with 1 valence electron(example : Na), it'll lose to gain the nearest stable octet i.e Ne. Metals lose electrons because electrons are loosely bounded in them whereas non-metals gain electrons gain electrons. Halogen group have 7 valence electrons hence they'll accept 1 electron to complete their octet and attain stable nature. Hope this helps!

What frequency is a wave with a wavelength of 1km?
ryzh [129]

The frequency of wavelength of 1km <u>299792.458 Hz.</u>

These molecules already react to the inward motion of the loudspeaker membrane moving toward the source. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other. The wave with the greatest frequency has the shortest wavelength. Twice the frequency means one-half the wavelength. For this reason, the wavelength ratio is the inverse of the frequency ratio.

calculation:-

C= wavelength × frequency

frequency = 3 × 10⁸/ 1000 Hz

= 299792.458 Hz.

= 3 ×10⁵ Hz

Based on such a model, we found that mass is not an intrinsic property of the particle. Instead, mass is basically a measure of particle energy. The relations between energy and mass can be directly derived based on the wave properties of the particle. Waves are one of the ways in which energy may be transferred between stores. Waves can be described as oscillations or vibrations about a resting position.

How many σ bonds are there in each molecule ethane ethylene acetylene?
aalyn [17]
The  sigma  bonds  are  formed  when  orbitals  overlap  side  by  side  and  is  related  to  covalent  bond  In  ethylene  the number  of  sigma   bond  are  5.
Reason,  carbon  has  four  carbon -hydrogen  bond  which  form  four  sigma  bond.  The  other    sigma  bond  is  between  carbon=carbon  bond  thus  ethylene  has  5  sigma  bond
