Answer:
When atoms join together to form molecules, they are held together by chemical bonds. These bonds form as a result of the sharing or exchange of electrons between the atoms. It is only the electrons in the outermost shell that ever get involved in bonding.
Answer: Strong acid vs weak acid
Strong acids and strong bases refer to species that completely dissociate to form ions in solution.
Explanation: By contrast, weak acids and bases ionize only partially, and the ionization reaction is reversible. Thus, weak acid and base solutions contain multiple charged and uncharged species in dynamic equilibrium.
Answer: B. 1:2
Explanation: Beryllium and chlorine forms a binary ionic compound. Ionic compound is formed when a metal loses its electrons to a receiving non metal. Beryllium (metal) has two valence electrons while chlorine (nonmetal) has seven valence electrons, and so a beryllium atom has to give out its two valence electrons to attain a duplet stable structure while a chlorine atom will gain one electron to attain its stable octet structure. In the reaction between beryllium and chlorine, two atoms of chlorine have to accept the two electrons from one beryllium atom to attain their stable octet structure.
The formula of the compound formed is BeCl2.
