Why can't polyatomic ions ever stand alone?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Basile [38]3 years ago
7 0
The prefix "poly-" means "many," and "atomic" refers to atoms, so a polyatomic ion is made of 2+ atoms covalently bonded together. These ions are charged, which is why they can never stand alone.

How many grams are in 2 moles of H₂O?
Lynna [10]

<em>Question:</em>

<h2>How many grams are in 2 moles of H₂O?</h2><h2 />

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<h3>One mole of H2O has a mass of (2*1 + 1*16 = 18g). We read the 1 and the 16 from the periodic table of the elements under “atomic weight” or “atomic mass”. I’ve taken the whole numbers from memory to keep it simple but you can read a more accurate value if you need a more accurate value from your periodic table. </h3><h3 /><h3>So if one mole of H2O has a mass of 18g, then 2 moles will have a mass of 18*2 = 36g.</h3><h3 />

<em>Note: * I am not responsible if you get it wrong, for you are the one who asked the question. *</em>

<u>If this helped, your welcome! Please know that I might be wrong, and if I am, I am truly sorry for that. But If you would, please make me brainliest.</u>

Which element will only gain one electron during a chemical reaction?
Gelneren [198K]

Halogens

Explanation:

Halogens are a group of non-metals located in the seventh group on the periodic table. The will only gain one electron during a chemical reaction.

  • Halogens have a seven electrons in their outermost shell.
  • To complete the number of electrons in this shell, they need to gain an additional electron.
  • One more electron makes the halogen similar to the corresponding noble gas which is very stable.
  • Halogens are very reactive groups of elements and are highly electronegative.
  • They have a high affinity for electrons.
  • These elements are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and Astatine.
