Answer is: (3) ionic and molecular.
Ionic compounds are made of ions held together with ionic bonds.
Ionic bond forms when a cation transfers its extra electron to an anion who needs it.
For example compound magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) has ionic bond (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).
Magnesium (metal) transfers two electrons (became positive cation) to chlorine (became negative anion).
Molecular compounds are made up of molecules whose atoms are connected with covalent bonds.
Covalent bond is bond between nonmetals.
For example, molecule carbon monoxide CO has covalent bond.
Carbon (C) and oxygen (O) are nonmetals.
Carbon atom and oxygen atom are connected by a triple bond (six shared electrons in three bonding molecular orbitals) that is formed of two covalent bonds and one dative covalent bond.
Answer is: mass number is 234.
Beta decay is radioactive decay<span> in which a </span>beta ray<span> and a </span>neutrino<span> are emitted from an </span><span>atomic nucleus.
</span>There are two types of beta decay: beta minus<span> and </span>beta plus. <span> In beta minus </span><span>decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an </span>electron<span> and an </span>electron antineutrino and in beta plus <span>decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and </span>positron<span> and an </span>electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.
The number of protons in the nucleus for that element
Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A covalent bond is formed when there occurs sharing of electrons between atoms.
For example, in hydrogen atom there is one electron in its orbit and in a chlorine atom there is 7 valence electron. So, in order to attain stability both hydrogen and chlorine share electrons when they come close to each other.
Whereas except hydrogen and chlorine rest of the given atoms will form ionic bond, that is, bond formed by transfer of electrons.
Thus, we can conclude that a pair of hydrogen and chlorine will form a covalent bond.
