Answer:
<u>In an ionic bond , an element will have to lose or gain electrons.</u>
Explanation:
- Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.
- Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.
- <em>The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).</em>
∴
- <em>The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds cannot be zero.</em>
Do you not understand how to solve for the answer?
Answer:
The right option is option E. None of the answer choices given are totally correct.
Explanation:
All insulators normally have an equal amount of positive and negative charges distributed on their surface.
The amber rod (an insulator) is called negative because after the coming together with fur (another insulator), the amber rod rubs off electrons from the fur onto itself and has an overall more negatively charged particles than positively charged particles on its surface.
The fur in turn becomes positive because it has more positive charges than negative on its surface.
So, the convention allows the now rubbed off amber rod to be called negative.
So, it is evident that none of the answer choices are totally correct, the right answer is more of a mix of some of the answer choices and more!
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
The car has velocity and acceleration but is not decelerating
Explanation:
Since the car is traveling at 25 mph around the curve, it has a tangential velocity. This tangential velocity is constantly changing in direction (so the car could adapt to the curve and not moving forward in a straight line), there should be a centripetal acceleration in play here. This acceleration does not slow down the car so it's not decelerating.
The answer that fits the blank is SOURCE REDUCTION. Source reduction refers to the prevention of further pollution by eliminating the source before this can produce the wastes. This helps in the reduction of pollution, thus reduces the amount of toxins brought by these wastes that may harm the environment.
