Answer: Peer-reviewed journal article is the most useful because the information in them had been carefully scrutinized and aproved by people who are experts in that particular field.
- Atoms that loss or gain electrons are called ions. There are two types of ions: cations and anions.
- Here, 2+ represents that Calcium (Ca) should gain 2 more electrons so that its number equals to that of protons.
- 3- represents that Nitrogen (N) should loss 3 electrons to equivalent with the number of protons.
- Here, anions are S^2-, P^3-, Se^2-, Br^-.
- While cations are Cr^3+, Ag^+, Li^+, Ba^2+.
- The number of protons of Magnesium (Mg) = 12
- The number of nuetrons of Mg = 12
- The number of electrons of Mg = 12
Hope you could get an idea from here.
Doubt clarification - use comment section.
This is known as polymerisation
So I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking but I’m going to give it a go. The elimination reaction is a term used in organic chemistry that describes a type of reactions. The name kinda tells you what’s going to happen. Something is going to be removed/eliminated from initial reactant/substrate and as a result, an alkene (double bond containing compound) will form.
In elimination reactions a hydrogen atom is first removed (as a H+) from the beta carbon. As a result, the left behind electrons create a pi bond between the beta carbon and the neighboring alpha carbon. This promotes the electronegative atom, on the alpha carbon, to leaves the substrate taking both electrons from the shared sigma bond with the alpha carbon.
