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.
A. The kitten shivers like she’s cold
those link share ppl are SOOOOOO ANNOYING
Mass atomic of Ne=20.18 u
Therefore:
molar mass=20.18 g/1 mol
1 mole=6.022*10²³ particles (atoms or molecules)
Then: 6.022*10²³ atoms are contained in 20.18g
Now, We can solve this problem by the three rule.
6.022*10²³ atoms-------------------20.18 g
x------------------------------------------32 g
x=(6.022*10²³ atoms * 32 g)/20.18 g=9.55*10²³ atoms.
Answer: 9.55*10²³ Ne atoms are contained in 32 g of the element.
<h3>your query : </h3>
Which statement about photosynthesis is FALSE?
Answer:
b. Oxygen is needed as a reactant to produce
glucose is the incorrect statement here
Explanation:
plants uses simple raw materials to prepare their food , which includes water ( H2O ) and Carbon dioxide ( CO2 ).
and traps sunlight by Green pigments known as chlorophyll and stores these energy in bonds of glucose molecules
so ,
after this reaction glucose and oxygen is formed as products
● hence we conclude that Oxygen is not needed as a reactant to produce glucose , oxygen is the bi product formed during photosynthesis.
The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter is not created nor destroyed.
Based on this, we can use some addition to find the answer.
3.00 + 1.40 = 4.40 g
Hope this helps :)
