Hm, this could be more than one option, but gaining electrons makes a negative charge, so
If atoms of a halogen nonmetal (Group 17) gains one electron, the atoms the have "a negative one charge".
Answer: Ionic bonds result from transfer of electrons, whereas covalent bonds are formed by sharing. ... Ionic bonds are electrostatic in nature, resulting from that attraction of positive and negative ions that result from the electron transfer process; charge separation between covalently bonded atoms is less extreme.
Explanation:
26 elements are man-made ..........
Answer:
Explanation:
A solar collector is a device that absords Sun's heat energy to heat air or water. It is majorly used for heating purpose, and do not generate electricity directly.
The flow tubes and collector plate are black in color so as to increase the intensity of heat generated by the collector. A black body is a good absorber of heat, it absorbs most heat directed to the collector. Also, a black body is a good radiator of heat, the heat absorbed is rediated to the appropriate channels for the heating of water or air molecules. The black color increases the efficeincy and percentage of solar energy absorbed by the collector.
If a reflective color is used (e.g white), major percentage of the incident heat would be reflected. This would decrease the efficiency of the solar collector.
