<span>
</span>The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span> (atomic number) - (core electrons)</span> 

Boron:

Atomic number: 5 
Core electrons: 2

Boron will have the following: 2 core electrons and 3 valence electrons.
(atomic number) - (core electrons)------> (5) - (2) = +3 

<span>
</span><span>Oxygen: </span><span>
<span>Atomic number: 8 </span>
<span>Core electrons: 2 </span></span>

<span>Boron will have the following: 2 core electrons and 6 valence electrons. </span><span>
<span>(atomic number) - (core electrons)------> (8) - (2) = +6 |

So the answer would be +3 and +6</span>.</span><span>

I hope this helps and if you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to ask again. </span>

What is true when an element is oxidized? It bonds with the hydroxide ion. It loses electrons to another element. It reacts with
Mama L [17]

Answer: It loses electrons to another element.

Explanation:- Oxidation is the process in which an element loses electrons and there is an increase in the oxidation state. On losing electrons it combines with a electronegative element such as oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen etc.

Fe\rightarrow Fe^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction is the process in which an element gains electrons and there is a decrease in the oxidation state.

\frac{1}{2}O_2+2e^-\rightarrow O^{2-}

What is the molarity of 60.0 grams of NaOH dissolved in 750 milliliters of water?
Bumek [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is B) 2.0 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the number of grams of NaOH (Sodium Chloride) which are dissolved in 750 milliliters of water and we are to find its molarity.

We know the formula of molarity:

<em>Molarity =  (mass * 1000) / (volume * molecular mass)  </em>

Volume = 750 ml = 750 cm^3

Molecular mass = 40  

Mass = 60 grams

Substituting these values in the above formula:

Molarity = \frac{(60*1000)}{750*40} = 2.0 M
