Answer: b. One atom transferring electrons to another atom
Explanation: An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.
Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons between non metals
For example, In calcium iodide the one electron from calcium metal gets transferred to iodine atom and thus form an ionic bond to give 
Electronic configuration of calcium:
![[Ca]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCa%5D%3D1s%5E22s%5E22p%5E63s%5E23p%5E64s%5E2)
Calcium atom will lose two electron to gain noble gas configuration and form calcium cation with +2 charge.
![[Ca^{2+}]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCa%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%3D1s%5E22s%5E22p%5E63s%5E23p%5E6)
Electronic configuration of iodine:
![[I]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BI%5D%3D1s%5E22s%5E22p%5E63s%5E23p%5E64s%5E23d%5E%7B10%7D4p%5E5)
Iodine atom will gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form iodide ion with -1 charge.
![[I^-]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BI%5E-%5D%3D1s%5E22s%5E22p%5E63s%5E23p%5E64s%5E23d%5E%7B10%7D4p%5E6)
Answer: Electric energy
Explanation: Electrical energy is stored between plates in electric field
Answer:
7.21 grams is the mass of methane
Explanation:
We may use the Ideal Gases Equation to solve this:
P. V = n. R. T
Let's determine the moles of Ar
18 g . 1 mol/ 39.9 g = 0.451 mol
In both situations, volume, temperature and pressure are the same so the moles of methane will also be the same as Argon's.
Let's convert the moles to mass of CH4.
0.451 mol . 16g/1mol = 7.21 grams
Answer:
Light demonstrates wave-like and particle-like characteristics
Explanation:
Light itself is a wave but under circumstance it will present particle-like charcteristics. This is called wave-particle duality :)
1.34 moles are in 135g of Teflon.
Explanation:
Molecular formula of teflon is (C2H4)n
mass of teflon = 135 grams
atomic mass of teflon = 100.01 gram/mole
number of moles of teflon = ?
Formula used to calculate number of moles in a substance is given as:
number of moles = 
putting the values in the above equation:
number of moles = 
number of moles = 1.34 moles
Teflon is polymer which is used for making non-stick coating, in 135 grams of teflon there are 1.34 moles in it.
