Answer:
K loses one electron to CI
Explanation:
The lewis electron dot notation shows only the chemical symbol of the element surrounded by dots to represent the valence electrons.
We have atom of K with one valence electrons
Cl with 7 valence electrons
For an electrostatic attraction to occur, both particles must be charged. To do this, one of the species must lose an electron, and the other gains it.
This will make both species attain a stable octet;
Hence, K will lose 1 electron and Cl will gain the electrons.
1 mol of Br = 79.9 g
15.7 g / 79.9 g = 0.196 moles of atoms
Answer:
When liquid water reaches the freezing point, it expands. After placing a sealed glass container full of water into the freezer, we might expect it to freeze, expand, and either crack or shatter the glass.
Explanation:
Answer is: Cl and Na.
sodium and chlorine are in third period and they have very different properties. Sodium is solid metal and chlorine is gaseous nonmetal.
They form compound NaCl (Sodium chloride), because sodium lost one valence electron and form cation Na⁺, chlorine gain one electron and form anion Cl⁻.
Electron configuration of sodium atom: ₁₁Na 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹.
Electron configuration of chlorine atom: ₁₇Cl 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵.
Other examples are metal-metal pairs and they do not form cation and anion.
Answer:
the answer is (a)
Explanation:
an example of +1 oxidation state is Cu2O, where oxygen is 2- and so to balance the molecule, each copper atom is +1
