When forming positive ions transition metals comply gain electrons??

Chemistry

Answer:

elements on the left-hand side of the periodic table such as sodium and magnesium prefer to lose electrons to form a cation because this requires less energy to obtain a stable octet, and vice-versa for the right-hand side of the periodic table e.g. fluorine. However, using this reasoning I am not sure why all transition metals tend to lose electrons rather than gain them.

Five gases combined in a gas cylinder have the following partial pressures: 3.00 atm (N2), 1.80 atm (O2), 0.29 atm (Ar), 0.18 at
lisov135 [29]

This can be solved using Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. This law states that the total pressure exerted by a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture as if it exist alone in a container. In order to solve, we need the partial pressures of the gases given. Calculations are as follows:<span>


<span>P = 3.00 atm + 1.80 atm + 0.29 atm + 0.18 atm + 0.10 atm</span></span>

<span><span>P = 5.37 atm</span></span>
