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.

Answer: 15.3 grams C
Explanation: 1 mole is 6.02x10^23 atoms. We can find the moles of C in 7.675 x 10^23 atoms of C by dividing:
(7.675 x 10^23 atoms C)/(6.02x10^23 atoms C/mole) = 1.275 moles C
The molar mass of carbon is 12g/mole. So the mass of 7.675 x 10^23 atoms is (1.275 moles C)*(12 g/mole C) = 15.3 grams.
Answer: (a) The solubility of CuCl in pure water is
.
(b) The solubility of CuCl in 0.1 M NaCl is
.
Explanation:
(a) Chemical equation for the given reaction in pure water is as follows.

Initial: 0 0
Change: +x +x
Equilibm: x x

And, equilibrium expression is as follows.
![K_{sp} = [Cu^{+}][Cl^{-}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_%7Bsp%7D%20%3D%20%5BCu%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%5BCl%5E%7B-%7D%5D)

x = 
Hence, the solubility of CuCl in pure water is
.
(b) When NaCl is 0.1 M,
, 
, 
Net equation: 
= 0.1044
So for, 
Initial: 0.1 0
Change: -x +x
Equilibm: 0.1 - x x
Now, the equilibrium expression is as follows.
K' = 
0.1044 = 
x = 
Therefore, the solubility of CuCl in 0.1 M NaCl is
.
Answer:
sodium hexachloroplatinate(IV)- Na2[PtCl6]
dibromobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) bromide- [Co(en)2Br2]Br
pentaamminechlorochromium(III) chloride-[Cr(NH3)5Cl]Cl2
Explanation:
The formulas of the various coordination compounds can be written from their names taking cognisance of the metal oxidation state as shown above. The oxidation state of the metal will determine the number of counter ions present in the coordination compound.
The number ligands are shown by subscripts attached to the ligand symbols. Remember that bidentate ligands such as ethylenediamine bonds to the central metal ion via two donors.
