Answer:
The critical temperature of a substance is the temperature at and above which vapour of the substance cannot be liquefied, no matter how much pressure is applied.
The answer is: lose electrons and form positive ions.
Most metals have strong metallic bond, because of strong electrostatic attractive force between valence electrons (metals usually have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively charged metal ions.
The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
For example, magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.
Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.
Answer:
It’s twice as much as 9+10
Explanation:
The characteristics of wave are amplitude, speed , frequency and wavelength.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Amplitude is defined as the distance covered by the particles or molecules moving in a wave nature. So the maximum positive and negative peak position is termed as amplitude of the wave.
Every wave forms a series of crests and trough regions. The crest region is the positive amplitude while the trough region is the negative amplitude. The distance between two successive crests and troughs are termed as wavelength.
A single crest and trough forms a complete cycle. So the number of times a cycle is repeated for a given time is known as frequency. Speed is defined as the product of frequency and wavelength of the wave. In other words, speed of a wave is the rate at which the particles are moving a given area per unit time.
