I need help with the question 8B

Which statement is true about the element shown here? A) This element tends to gain electrons to become stable. B) This element

Ierofanga [76]

ITS C

This element tends to lose 2 electrons to become a 2+ ion, is the correct statement regarding the element calcium. Calcium has 2 electrons in its outer shell and it is easier to lose them than it is to gain enough to become stable. When stable it has 2 more protons than electrons forming a 2+ ion.

When forming a bond, an atom that has 3 electrons in its second shell and a filled first shell will?

Butoxors [25]

Macromolecule polymers are assembled by the connecting of monomers. An -OH group is detached from one monomer and a hydrogen atom is detached from an additional in a procedure named dehydration synthesis in the monomers bond. For every subunit supplementary to a macromolecule in which one water molecule is detached. Macromolecule polymers are broken down by breaking bonds among subunits. This procedure is named hydrolysis and is the opposite of dehydration. During hydrolysis the hydrogen atom is supplementary to one monomer and a hydroxyl cluster to the other and by breaking the covalent bond in the middle of the monomers.

A tugboat tows a ship with a constant force of magnitude F1. The increase in the ship's speed during a 10 s interval is 3.0 km/h

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of F₁ is 3.7 times of F₂

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

Speed = 3.0 km/h

Speed of second tugboat = 11 km/h

We need to calculate the speed
