Hm, this could be more than one option, but gaining electrons makes a negative charge, so

Answer : If atoms of a halogen nonmetal (Group 17) gains one electron, the atoms the have (-1) (or, negative) change.

Explanation :

Periods : A row in the periodic table is known as periods.

The common features about the elements of a period are :

Each periods has elements with the same number of electron shells or energy levels or shell.

They transition from metal to noble gas that means they move from metal to non-metal and then non-metal to noble gas.

Groups : A column in the periodic table is known as groups.

The common features about the elements of a same group are :

Each groups has elements with the same number of valance electrons.

The elements in the same group have similar chemical properties.

The elements in the same group have similar physical properties.

The group 17 is a non-metal and known as halogen. The number of valance electrons present in group 17 are 7 valence electrons.

The general electronic configuration of group 17 is:

ns^2np^5

As per question, when atoms of halogen gains one electron then the  atoms have (-1) (or, negative) charge and attain stable electronic configuration as noble gas.

For example : The element chlorine belongs to group 17 and the electronic configuration is:

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

When chlorine atom gain one electron then the chlorine atom have (-1) charge Cl^-.

How do test with crash dummies, seat belts, and air bags illustrate newton's first law of motion??
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Newton’s law of inertia is illustrated in tests with crash dummies, seat belts, and airbags, wherein the object stays in motion unless there is an unbalanced force applied to it.

Inertia is the main reason why there are seatbelts and airbags in the car. In this case, when the seatbelt is trapped to the passenger, the passenger experiences the same state of motion as the car. If the car accelerates/decelerates, the passenger experiences it too. When the car experiences collision, an unbalance force is acted upon it. This causes the car to stop abruptly, and the passenger shares the same state of motion because of the seatbelt and the airbags that apply the unbalanced force to stop the passenger to go forward.
