Ionic bonds form between two elements that have a very large difference in electronegativity ie. a metal and a non-metal. The electronegative element will want an electron to make it stable whilst the less electronegative element wants to donate an electron to make it stable. Therefore the metallic element donates a electron to the non-metal and both become ions, which attract each other. Eg. Na becomes Na+ and Cl becomes Cl-, the opposite charges attract, forming the bond.

A change involving whole atoms is called _____.
givi [52]

Answer is: chemical.

If the arrangement of particles is changed, that is chemical change or chemical reaction (new substance is formed).

In physical change, the bonds between oxygen and hydrogen can not be separated.

For example, balanced chemical reaction: 2Mg(s) + O₂(g) → 2MgO(s).

Chemical changes (chemical synthesis) is when a substance combines with another (in this example magnesium and oxygen) to form a new substance.

for number less than 0.1, such as 0.06, the zeros to the right of the decimal point but before the first nonzero digit
qaws [65]

For the number less than 0.1 such as 0.006, the zeroes to the right of the decimal point but before the first non zero digit show the decimal place of the first significant digit.

  • The number that is given as digits is established using significant figures.
  • Any two non-zero digits that are separated by a zero are significant figure.
  • Every zero that is both to the right and left of a non-zero digit and the decimal point is not significant figure.
  • The quantity of significant figures frequently reveals the degree of measurement accuracy. From the first non-zero digits in the figure, we may determine the number of significant figures.

There is only one significant figure in the provided number 0.06. The decimal place of the first digit is indicated by the zeros that appear to the right of the decimal point but before the first non-zero digit.
