Answer:

b) Gain or lose electrons

Explanation:

An ion is an electrically charged particle. For an atom to be charged, it must have gained or lost electron in the process and therefore, it becomes an ion.

The loss or gain of electrons is what makes an atom charged and eventually becomes an ion.

A positively charged ion is one that has lost an electron and it is called a cation. In such an ion, the number of electrons are lesser than those of protons. This is why they are cations

A negatively charged ion is one that has gained electrons. They are called anions. In such an ion, the number of electrons are greater than that of protons.

How is the periodic table important for all of science and not just chemistry? pleas answer me​
valentina_108 [34]

<em>The periodic table helps people understand what a substance's atoms can contain, which also provides information on how it can perform a specific action, or how well it can act as a base and so on. When people understand what something is made of, we can figure out what it can be used for. This makes it easier for workers to construct important structures.</em>

What is the minimum volume of 5.50 M HCl necessary to neutralize completely the hydroxide in 718.0 mL of 0.183 M NaOH
Deffense [45]

The volume of HCl required is 23.89 mL

Calculation of volume:

The reaction:

HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H_2O

As HCl and NaOH react in 1 : 1 ratio.

Volume of NaOH= 718 mL

Concentration= 0.183M

Volume of HCl= ?

Concentration= 5.50M

Using the dilution formula:

M_1\times V_1(NaOH)= M_2\times V_2(HCl)

0.183\times 718= 5.50 \times V_2\\V_2=\frac{131.394}{5.50} \\V_2 = 23.89 \,mL

Therefore,

Volume of HCl required will be 23.89 mL.
