A defining feature of a material that is a good insulator would be its ability to stop or cancel an electric charge of another material. This happens because the molecules in the material are stable and there are no free electrons that would allow the charges to flow.
Answer:
I think the answer is D. Temperature affects only the rate of reaction.
C.
centi- is essentially 10^2 of one meter.
If you had 100m, multiplying 100 by 10^2 (or 100) would give you 10000 cm.
Atoms must gain or lose electrons in order to become ions if they are to form ionic bonds.
Well, if you look at group 1 of the periodic table, you will notice a thrend. All elements in group 1 have 1 valence / outer electron. Then you look at period 2, 3, 4 and so on, you will see that the group number corresponds the number of valence/ outershell electrons. Hence, the group determines the electron(s) on the outershell.
