What action would you expect an atom of Aluminum to undergo?

Chemistry
1 answer:
KATRIN_1 [288]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C. Lose three electrons to have a full outer shell  

Explanation:

Al is in Group 13 of the Periodic Table, so it has three valence electrons.

It must either lose three electrons or gain five to achieve a stable octet.

It is easier to lose three electrons than it is to gain five, so Al loses three electrons.

D. is wrong, for the same reason.

A. is wrong. If Al lost three electrons, it would be breaking into a stable inner shell.

C. is wrong. Al is a metal, so it will lose electrons in a reaction.

What is a product in a chemical reaction?
Alexus [3.1K]
chemical reaction results in the forming or breaking apart of chemical bonds between various elements. These reactions can result in many different outcomes, which can be affected by temperature, pressure and the amount of the reactants. Catalysts can also start a reaction or speed up its rate. However, the catalyst is not involved in the chemical reaction, as it remains unchanged before and after the reaction.
Although the elements and compounds may change form during the reaction, every atom in the reactants is also found in one of the products. In the reaction, individual elements can bond together to form compounds, or compounds can break apart into elements. For instance, when water is exposed to an electrical current, it breaks apart into oxygen and hydrogen gases. Alternatively, when zinc and sulfur react together, the two elements bond together to form zinc sulfide.
Some reactions also result in chemical equilibrium, which occurs when the reactants change into products at the same time as the products change back into the original reactants.

What test would be done to prove the color of specific compounds is due to metal ions apart from flame test
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Borax bead test

Explanation:

Another test that can be used to identify colored ions in a specific compound such as salt is called "Borax bead test".

This test involves use of a clear glassy bead of borax that is joined together in a wire loop which is going to be involved in chemical reaction with the salts of certain metals.

This reaction will produce colors that we can use to identify the exact metal ions that are present.
