The correct answer attached in file, Thank you for joining brainly community.
Answer:
In Cl
, the 2 is a subscript because it indicates there are 2 of the same elements. The Lewis structure would display it as Cl-Cl.
On the other hand, a superscript would indicate a specific charge.
All subscripts show the amount of the specific element there is.
An example would be O
or N
, they both show that there are 2 of the same elements.
If the subscript is outside a parenthesis such as
it indicates there are 2
molecules.
Answer:
By the result of the formation of positive and negative ions, Ionic compounds are formed.
Explanation:
Electrons are actually transferred from one atom to another to form rare gas electron structures for each ion. The atom which forms a positive ion loses electrons to the atom which gains electrons to form a negative ion. A compound is not stable unless the number of electrons which are lost and gained are equal
Answer:
Explanation:
Option B is the correct answer
The answer for the following question is option "C".
Option C is not included in the John Dalton's modern theory of an atom.
- "It states atoms of different elements combine to form new compound" but not new elements
Explanation:
According to John's Dalton's modern theory of an atom:
1. All matter is composed of atoms.
2. Atoms cannot be created,destroyed or subdivided in the ordinary chemical reactions.
3. Atoms of one element differ in the properties from atoms of an another element.
(i.e.)Each and every atom of the element has its own unique properties of their own.
4. Atoms of one element combine with the atoms of another element to <u>form new compound.</u>
5. Atoms that make up an element are identical to each other.
