Answer:
The sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equals zero.
Aluminium has a charge of +3 while Oxygen has a charge of -2 on each ion.
Al203 has 2 Al atoms and 3 O atoms.
Charge on Al2O3 = 2(charge on Al ion) + 3(charge on O ion)
= 2(3) + 3(-2)
= 6 - 6
= 0
Explanation:
Aluminium has 3 electrons in the outermost shell and has the tendency to lose those 3 electrons to form a positive ion and have a complete outermost shell.
Whereas, Oxygen has 6 electrons in the outermost and has the tendency to accept two more electrons to form a negative ion and have a complete outermost shell.
a). Perihelion . . . the point in Earth's orbit that's closest to the Sun.
We pass it every year early in January.
b). Aphelion . . . the point in Earth's orbit that's farthest from the Sun.
We pass it every year early in July.
c). Proxihelion . . . a made-up, meaningless word
d). Equinox . . . the points on the map of the stars where the Sun
appears to be on March 21 and September 21.
