Answer:

Anions. Some atoms have nearly eight electrons in their valence shell and can gain additional valence electrons until they have an octet. When these atoms gain electrons, they acquire a negative charge because they now possess more electrons than protons. Negatively charged ions are called anions.

Edit the reaction by drawing all steps in the appropriate boxes and connecting them with reaction arrows. Add charges where need

gregori [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

Edit the reaction by drawing all steps in the appropriate boxes and connecting them with reaction arrows. Add charges where needed. Electron flow arrows should start on the electron(s) of an atom or a bond and should end on an atom, bond, or location where a new bond should be created. Include all free radicals by right-clicking on an atom on the canvas and then using the Atom properties to select the monovalent radical.

Which element, under normal circumstances, does not combine chemically with other elements to form compounds?

Ilya [14]

That would be the NOBLE GASES (Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon). Because these elements have a filled outer shell (thus giving them the full octet that other elements crave), they are stable elements under normal circumstances and as such resist chemical combination.

Plz note that under special conditions, noble gases such as Xenon and Radon can form compounds (Xenon Fluoride and Oxide; Radon Fluoride)
