Neutrons don’t carry an electrical charge, meaning that adding or subtracting them from the nucleus will not change the electrical charge of the nucleus of an atom. But, adding/removing neutrons changes the mass of the nucleus. This is how isotopes are formed.
Answer:
1.Hydrogenation of Alkenes and akynes.
2.Reaction of alkylhalides.
3. Halogenation.
The loss of electron from an results in the formation of cation represented by the positive charge on the element whereas gaining of electron results in the formation of anion represented by the negative charge on the element.
The alkali earth metal beryllium (
) belongs to the second group of the periodic table. The ground state electronic configuration of
is:
From the electronic configuration it is clear that it has 2 valence electrons in its valence shell (
).
After losing all valence electrons that is 2 electrons from
orbital. The electronic configuration will be:

Since, lose of electron is represented by positive charge on the element symbol. So, the beryllium will have +2 charge on its symbol as
.
Hence, beryllium will have 2+ charge on it after losing all its valence electrons in the chemical reaction.
My science text book said that it was either diamond or gold. Gold may not be right, but I am pretty sure diamond is.
Sorry if I got this wrong.
Answer:
The emission spectrum is formed when the electrons of a particular atom absorb energy and are excited (in this case by heating), reaching higher energy levels.
You can see it for example with an experiment where we light alcohol mixed with banana chips (it has potassium). The burning alcohol emits heat that makes potassium atoms excite and these in turn emit something red, orange light. If we add for example boric acid you see a green light.
