Answer:
5 electrons
Explanation:
When an atom loses are gain the electrons ions are formed.
There are two types of ions.
Anion
Cation
1 = Anion
It is formed when an atom gain the electrons. when atom gain electron negative charge is created on atom. For example.
X + e⁻ → X⁻
2= Cation
It is formed when an atom loses the electrons. when atom lose electron positive charge is created on atom. For example.
X → X⁺ + e⁻
When an atom loses three electrons +3 charge is created. If this atom have 8 protons it means there were 8 electrons too. When it lost three electrons then remaining number of electrons are 5.
X → X³⁺ + 3e⁻
I think it’s B vibrations in molecules
Explanation: The Kinetic Theory of Matter states that matter is composed of a large number of small particles—individual atoms or molecules—that are in constant motion.
Solute of solution = 17.8 g
Solvn = 198 g
% = 17.8 / 198
w% = 0.089 x 100 = 8.9% by mass
hope this helps!
