Na₂O is an ionic compound. Na is in group 1 which means it has one electron in the outer shell. O is in group 6 so it has 6 electrons in the outer shell.
To become stable atoms need to either lose the electrons in the outer shell or gain electrons to gain a complete outer shell configuration.
To become stable Na loses its outer electron and becomes positively charged. It only loses one electron, so net charge is +1. O to become stable gains 2 electrons to complete its outer shell and becomes negatively charged. since it gains 2 electrons, the net charge is -2.
cation - Na⁺
anion - O²⁻
O gains 2 electrons but Na can give only one electron, therefore 2 Na⁺ ions are required.
the compound can be written by exchanging the charges
ions Na⁺ O²⁻
charge +1 -2
exchange Na₂O
Correct answer is <span>Na has +1 charge and O has -2 charge</span>

Explanation:
The land around us appears flat because the Earth is just so unimaginably large, and the curvature is extremely small from our point of view. In reality, the land is slightly bendy, which is why certain structures (like very long bridges) need to be constructed with the curvature in mind, with different ends at slightly different elevations. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Part A
Given that the graph is symmetrical and bell shaped, the average kinetic energy is given by the midline of graph, which corresponds to the common speed of the highest number of the population
Part B
The formula for the average kinetic energy, K.E. = (3/2)·(R/NA)·T
Therefore, the part of the graph that indicates the temperature of the sample is the average kinetic energy. K.E.
Part C
At a lower temperature, the heat is less evenly distributed and we have the distribution T2 higher than T1

Explanation:
These ions are disjoint by the charge on the ion into four dissimilar tables and listed alphabetically within each table. Each polyatomic ion, has it called, chemical, formula, two dimensional drawing, and three dimensional representation are given.
The three dimensional buildings are drawn as CPK models. CPK structures represent the atoms as sphere, where the radius of the sphere is equal to the van der waals radius of the atom; these buildings give a measure up the volume of the polyatomic atom.
