Barium forms cation : Ba²⁺

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Barium element

Required

Ion type

Solution

Barium with the symbol Ba is an alkaline earth metal element having the atomic number 56

Electron configuration of Barium: [Xe] 6s2

If we look at this configuration, then Barium will try to achieve stability by removing 2 electrons so that the electron configuration is the same as the noble gas Xenon (Xe)

Because it removes 2 electrons, Barium has the number of protons> the number of electrons so that the charge is positive and forms a cation

Explain the significance of this quote, “Heisenberg may have slept here.”
ch4aika [34]

Umm...Well...

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle says that we can never know both the position and rate of change of a particle at any time. We can only know one or the other. This leads to rather silly jokes that deal with uncertainty, probability, and superposition. So, saying that "Heisenberg may have slept here" is essentially saying that it is uncertain if Heisenberg slept there or not, making for a rather silly, but slightly unfunny physics joke.
