Anions are those elements on the upper right side of the periodic table, excluding the Noble gases, that gain electrons when the

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The given statement is true. The elements on the upper right side of periodic table accept the electrons because of higher electronegativity values and form anions.

For example:

Consider the halogens. All halogens accept the one electron per atom to complete the octet and form anion. when they combine with metals metals loses their electrons to halogens atoms and form cations while halogens accept the electrons and form anion.

Consider the sodium chloride salt. The sodium metal loses its one valance electron which is accepted by chlorine.

Na⁺Cl⁻

Magnesium bromide:

To complete the octet bromine required one electron. By gaining the one electron it showed -1 oxidation state.

When bromine combine with magnesium both formed MgBr₂.

The one atom of Mg have +2 oxidation state while bromine have -1 that's why to make the overall compound neutral two bromine atoms combine with one atom of magnesium.

In an ion with an unknown charge, the total mass of all the electrons was determined to be 2.19 ✕ 10−26 g, while the total mass
Ilya [14]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{Fe$^{{2+}}$}}

Explanation:

1. Number of electrons

\text{Number of electrons} = 2.19 \times 10^{-26}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 electron}}{9.109 \times 10^{-28}\text{ g}} = \text{24 electrons}

2. Number of protons

\text{Number of protons} = 4.34 \times 10^{-23}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 proton}}{1.673 \times 10^{-24}\text{ g}} = \text{26 protons}

3. Identify the ion

An atom with 26 protons is iron, Fe.

A neutral atom of iron would have 26 electrons.

The ion has only 24 electrons, so it has lost two. The ion must have a charge of +2.

\text{The symbol for the ion is $\large \boxed{\textbf{Fe$^{\mathbf{2+}}$}}$}

Water is denser than oil. When frozen, the oil sinks to the bottom. Why?
sammy [17]

Answer: When water freezes it gets larger and becomes a solid but it still weighs the same as when it was a liquid form. When it becomes larger it takes up space but makes it less dense. Ok so getting to the point- oil unlike water becomes more dense when frozen so this is why oil sinks in water. Sorry if this was confusing but I hope it helped have a great day and god bless you :3
