The atom<span> then has more protons than electrons and so it will be positively charged, a positive </span>ion<span>. Example: A </span>magnesium atom<span> may lose two electrons and </span>become<span> a Mg2+ </span>ion<span>. Non-metal </span>atoms<span> may gain electrons and </span>become<span> negatively charged. ... (It loses two electrons.)</span>
Answer:
fluorine
Explanation:
because it is at the top of the halogen group, which is the second to right group on the periodic table. With halogens, the higher an element is in the column, the more reactive it is. Halogens are reactive because the outer shells that orbit the nucleus lack electrons.
also because it has low dissociation energy and the valence bonding is seen close to the nucleus hence the attraction for a new electron is greater and can gain an extra electron more easily.-if ur in a higer grade u will understand this
Answer:
MgCl2 + 2AgNO3 → 2AgCl + Mg(NO3)2
Explanation:
I'm assuming you want to balance it so...
The first thing I see is that there are two chlorines on the reactant side and one on the product side
Adding a coefficient of 2 would get 2AgCl2
Now there are two silvers on the reactant side, so add a 2 to AgNO3 on the products side. Now they are all balanced.
If that is not what you are looking for let me know!
