The word that best fits the underlined in the sentence is "free-to-rotate." The carbon atoms in their carbon bonds are free to rotate since alkanes do not have geometric isomers. They only have single bonds and the most common example of which are trans molecules.
Most atoms have three different subatomic particles inside them: protons, neutrons, and electrons. The protons and neutrons are packed together into the center of the atom(which is called the nucleus) and the electrons, which are very much smaller, whizz around the outside. Most of an atom is empty space.
I hope this helps you! :D
Answer:
The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion, while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion
