The answer is: lose electrons and form positive ions.
Most metals have strong metallic bond, because of strong electrostatic attractive force between valence electrons (metals usually have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively charged metal ions.
The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
For example, magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.
Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.
First we determine the
moles CaCl2 present:
525g / (110.9g/mole) =
4.73 moles CaCl2 present
Based on stoichiometry,
there are 2 moles of Cl for every mole of CaCl2:<span>
(2moles Cl / 1mole CaCl2) x 4.73 moles CaCl2 = 9.47 moles Cl </span>
Get the mass:<span>
<span>9.47moles Cl x 35.45g/mole = 335.64 g Cl</span></span>
The answer would be "false" or the second option. A opinion is what you think on a certain subject and science is full of facts and opinions of other scientist which would mean your using someone else for your opinion just remember opinions is what you think about a subject and you can't use science for your opinion.
Hope this helps!
