Answer:

The third option "A molecule of a compound is composed of at least two types of atoms" is correct

Explanation:

This question isn't about molecules, it's about elements and compounds.

Elements are made of one and only one type of atoms, while compounds are made of more than one type of atoms.

(Molecules are just groups of atoms, it doesn't matter what they're made of)

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.  Both atoms are joint together by electrostatic interaction and ionic compound sodium chloride is formed.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive and both bonded atoms connected together through covalent bond.

Select all that apply. The stability of atomic nuclei is related to the _____. ratio of protons to electrons ratio of neutrons t
Marat540 [252]
The stability of atomic nuclei relies on the forces within the atom that balance out the charge. The electrons have the power to make an atom negatively or positively charged, but neutrons allow the atom to be electrically neutral regardless. The gravitational pull of protons and neutrons in the atomic nuclei keeps the electrons in an orbit, and with less protons than neutrons, electrons will be pulled into the nuclei and make the atom unstable; with less neutrons than protons, the electrons will be repelled and make the atom unstable. Therefore, the number and ratio of protons to neutrons are the factors that make an atom stable.

Answer: ratio of neutrons to protons and number of protons and neutrons

Hope this helps!
