The statement which is true is
metals lose electrons to become cations
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
- metals tends to loss electrons to attain noble gas electrons configuration.
- When metal loses electrons they form a positive charged ions.
- The positively charged ion is known as cations.
- for example sodium metal (Na) loses 1 electron to form a cation with a charge of positive 1 ( Na^+)
Answer: mmmmmm asking for mrs.howard work I see lol good luck grace
Explanation:
Well, a compound has a total charge of 0. So, it's electrically neutral. Since the X is 3+ and the Y is 3- they add to 0. Meaning no subscripts are necessary. Why don't you try a different combo?
Like:
A^3 and B^1-, to get a 3- charge you need 3xB^1- so the formula is AB3

An electrode is an electrical conductor used to make contact with a nonmetallic part of a circuit The word was coined by William Wheel at the request of the scientist Michael Faraday from the Greek words electron, meaning amber and hods, a way.
Reaction of Elemental Calcium with Water is as follow,
Ca + 2 H₂O → Ca(OH)₂ + H₂↑
When Sodium Metal is reacted with Water it produces NaOH and eliminates Hydrogen gas as shown in following equation,
2 Na + 2 H₂O → 2 NaOH + H₂↑
In both cases corresponding Hydroxides along with Hydrogen gas is produced.
