I would say when an atom has its valence electron shell filled like a noble gas has, it is not easily changed.
I’m not entirely sure of what you’re asking, but if you’re talking about bonding then it would be an ionic bond that is not easily changed.
C. losing one electron
Explanation:
It is because the potassium atom electronic configuration is 2,8,8,1 where by if it loses one electron it becomes stable
5. is b
but im not sure about 4
hope this helps
Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) + H2(g) + ZnCl2(aq) Which statement is true about energy in this reaction? A. The reaction is exothermic because it releases heat.
Answer:
Covalent bonds usually occur between nonmetals. For example, in water (H2O) each hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) share a pair of electrons to make a molecule of two hydrogen atoms single bonded to a single oxygen atom. ... Covalent compounds tend to be soft, and have relatively low melting and boiling points.
