Applying a force can make an electron shift from one atom to another causing what?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]2 years ago
8 0
Electrons in atoms can act as our charge carrier, because every electron carries a negative charge. If we can free an electron from an atom and force it to move, we can create electricity.

N the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum (gains or loses)
Volgvan

Answer:

loses, gains

Explanation:

In the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum will lose electrons while each atom of selenium will gain the electrons.

An ionic compound is an interatomic bond formed between a metal and non-metal. The metal is less electronegative compared to the non-metal. In this case, the metal will lose electrons to become positively charged whereas the non-metal, selenium will gain the electron to become negatively charged.

The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of the ionic bond.

What is the bond angle between the hydrogen atoms in an ammonia (NH₃) molecule?
dimulka [17.4K]
There are 4 electron pairs (3 bonding and 1 lone pair) so the angle is 107 degrees. The 4 electron pairs are repelled to give a tetrahedral arrangement but the molecule has a pyrimidal shape due to the lone pair.

1. During an oceanic plate convergence, the plate will sink
Lorico [155]

Answer:

1. denser

2. subduction

3. divergence

4. hot spots

5. earthquakes

6. An underwater hot-spot volcano occasionally erupts, and the lava solidifies into an island. However, the plate that lies above the hot spot continues to move due to slab pull and ridge push, so the stationary volcano will be in a different location when it erupts again. This forms a new island, and the process may continue.

What are the key characteristics of a synthesis reaction
Crazy boy [7]

Answer is: There are more reactants and one product of the reaction. The reactants may be elements or compounds. The product is always a compound.

Synthesis reaction is a type of reaction in which multiple reactants combine to form a single product.

For example, balanced chemical reaction: Ba + F₂ → BaF₂.

In barium fluoride, barium has oxidation number +2 and fluorine has oxidation number -1, so compound has neutral charge.

Second chemical reaction: CaO(s) + H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq).

One molecule is produced from two molecules.
