Answer:
D
Explanation:
We must study the reaction pictured in the question closely before we begin to attempt to answer the question.
Now, the reaction is a free radical reaction. This implies that only one electron is transferred. The transfer of one electron is shown using a half arrow rather than a full arrow. The both species are radicals (odd electron species) and contribute one electron each.
Hence we must show electron movements in both species using a half arrow.
Answer: C. The non metal
Explanation:-
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:
1. Positive ion or metal is written first.
2. The negative ion or non metal is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.
For example: , cesium is metal having an oxidation state of +1 called as
cation and bromine
is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
called as cesium bromide.
