I believe that this atom is chlorine and the atom has an overall charge of zero.
Chlorine is chemical element which is atomic number 17 in the periodic table. Each chlorine atom has 17 protons (positively charged) in the nucleus balanced by 17 electrons (negatively charged) in the energy shells ( thus an overall charge of zero)
Plants require pH to thrive which in turn gives us food.
Answer:
a
Explanation:
Because of their valence electron
Carbon, Silicon and germanium has 4 as their valence electron
The arrangement of the elements in order of decreasing metallic character is: Rb, Zn, P, S, F, Ca, Co, Cr
<h3 /><h3>What are metals?</h3>
Metals are elements which are known by their special ability to form ions by a loss of electrons.
The increasing metallic character of metal is a measure of their ability to lose electrons.
Metallic character increases from right to left and down a group in the period table.
Metals are found to the left of the period table.
In conclusion, metals are known by their ability to lose electrons.
