Barium forms cation : Ba²⁺
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Barium element
Required
Ion type
Solution
Barium with the symbol Ba is an alkaline earth metal element having the atomic number 56
Electron configuration of Barium: [Xe] 6s2
If we look at this configuration, then Barium will try to achieve stability by removing 2 electrons so that the electron configuration is the same as the noble gas Xenon (Xe)
Because it removes 2 electrons, Barium has the number of protons> the number of electrons so that the charge is positive and forms a cation
A stable isotope has just<em> the right number of neutrons for the number of protons </em>(the <em>n:p ratio</em>) to hold the nucleus together against the repulsions of the protons.
A radioactive isotope has either too few or too many neutrons for the nucleus to be stable,
The nucleus will then emit <em>alpha, beta, or gamma radiation</em> in an attempt to become more stable.
C. Fewer habitats for wild animals to live in
Explanation:
Biodiversity does not directly impact humans in that there are fewer habitats for wild animals to live in. This is a direct impact on animals and not humans.
Biodiversity is the variation of life forms in an area. It is measured by the ability of the ecosystem to sustain different life forms and keep their interaction with the environment.
It helps to maintain and sustain life.
To humans, reducing biodiversity;
- reduces the potential of medicine derived from other organisms. When their habitat is lost, we lose them.
- fewer ecosystems to appreciate for beauty and recreation. It leads to loss of the ecosystem.
- fewer wild food species for humans to eat.
Loss of habitat directly affects wild animals and not man.
