Iron atom is oxidized or you can say it loses 2 electrons.
ΔS =S(products) -S(reactants)
Where ΔS is the change of entropy in a reactions
a. ΔS = (2) - (2+1) = -1
b. ΔS = (1+1) -(1) = 1
c. ΔS = (1+2) - (1) = 2
d. ΔS = (2) - (2+1) = -1
e. ΔS = (1) - (1) = 0
ΔS is negative for reaction a. and d.
A. Malleability
Ductility is being able to be drawn into wires
Elasticity is being able to resist stress
Resilience is being able to spring back into shape (kind of like elasticity)
C cuz it just doesn’t make sense
<u>Answer:</u> Non-metals form ions when they gain electrons.
<u>Explanation:</u>
An ion is formed when an atom looses or gains electron.
- When an atom looses electrons, it will form a positive ion known as cation.
- When an atom gains electrons, it will form a negative ion known as anion.
Metals are the elements which have a tendency to loose electrons and thus they form cations. <u>Example:</u> Sodium will loose 1 electron to form
ion.
Non-metals are the elements which have a tendency to gain electrons and thus they form anions. <u>Example:</u> Fluorine will gain 1 electron to form
ion.
Hence, non-metals form ions when they gain electrons.
