The correct answer is A. All electrons become free and separate from the nuclei. In metallic bonds, the electrons of the metal atoms are delocalized. The electron in the electron sea can freely roam around or are free to flow.
Answer:
1. RbOH(s) ⇒ Rb⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)
2. Na₂CO₃(s) ⇒ 2 Na⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)
3. (NH₄)₂SeO₃(s) ⇒2 NH₄⁺(aq) + SeO₃²⁻(aq)
Explanation:
Let's consider the dissolving equations for the following compounds.
1. Rubidium hydroxide
RbOH(s) ⇒ Rb⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)
2. Sodium carbonate
Na₂CO₃(s) ⇒ 2 Na⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)
3. Ammonium selenite
(NH₄)₂SeO₃(s) ⇒2 NH₄⁺(aq) + SeO₃²⁻(aq)
The four quantum numbers for an atom refer to the state of the valence or outermost electron. For a potassium atom, the electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p64s1 , which means that n=4
There are 14 atoms, the 2 at the front times' everything by 2, so there 4Ks, 2Ss and 8Os, altogether 14
Answer:
An atom consists of a positively charged nucleus, surrounded by one or more negatively charged particles called electrons. The positive charges equal the negative charges, so the atom has no overall charge; it is electrically neutral. ... The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons
