The right answer is Sillicon.
Silicon (Si) is the chemical element of atomic number 14. It is the most abundant element in the earth's crust after oxygen, or 25.7% of its mass, but it is comparatively only present in relatively small quantities in the material constituting the living.
It is a semi-metal, ie it does not meet all the criteria to be defined as being a metal.
It has four free electrons in the last orbit, so it is able to form four covalent bonds. (the carbon can form 4 covalent bonds but it is not a semi-metal)
Answer:
1. 2+ (
).
2. 0 (
).
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, the described chemical reaction is a redox reaction in fact, since the oxidation states of both magnesium and copper change as shown due to the displacement:
Therefore:
1. Since copper is the cation in the copper (II) nitrate, the (II) means that its charge is 2+ ().
2. Since copper is alone, it means no electrons are being neither shared not given, its charge is 0 ().
Best regards.
10 electrons
Explanation:
The maximum number of electrons in a single d-subshell is 10 electrons.
The d-notation stands for an azimuthal quantum number or secondary quantum number.
This subshell can only accommodate a maximum of 10 electrons.
d- subshell has five orbitals
Each orbital is able to accommodate 2 electrons.
Therefore 5 x 2 = 10 electrons

Ionic bond is a chemical bond formed by the complete transfer of electrons between two atoms. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge (cation) and that which accepts electrons gains a negative charge (anion). Now, electronegativity is a parameter that measures the tendency of an atom to accept electrons. In the context of ionic bonding, two elements which show a significant difference in their electronegativity values form ionic bonds.
In the given examples, the difference in electronegativity is greatest between K and Br i.e. 0.8 and 2.8 respectively with a difference of 2.0. This also makes sense since K and Br are on the extreme ends of the periodic table. Hence, potassium with a valence electron configuration of 4s1 will lose its s electron to Br (4s24p6) and form an ionic molecule K⁺Br⁻
