2. They both need to gain one electron.
3. Sodium needs to lose one electron, and chlorine needs to gain one electron.
4. Sodium needs to gain one electron, and chlorine needs to lose one electron.
Answer: The correct option is (3) " Sodium needs to lose one electron, and chlorine needs to gain one electron ".
Explanation :
The electronic configuration of sodium (Na) is . It has only one vacant electron.
While the electronic configuration of chlorine is . It has seven valance electrons.
When Na reacts with Cl, Na will lose one electron and this lost electron gets transferred to chlorine. This forms a strong ionic bond.
So, the correct option is (3) " Sodium needs to lose one electron, and chlorine needs to gain one electron ".
Answer:
The Earth would increase in volume
Explanation:
What would happen to Earth if ocean floor were created at divergent boundaries at a faster rate than it is destroyed at convergent boundaries?
Divergent boundaries are boundaries where plates pull away from each other, forming mild earthquakes and volcanoes as magma comes to the surface. Earthquakes are as a result of vibrations travelling within the earth or ocean floors . Volcanoes occur as a result of the eruption of molten magma from the ocean floor
In divergent boundaries, the plates pull away and and the weakened crust in between collapse leaving more space thereby increasing in volume.
Convergent boundaries are boundaries that pull into each other. mountain chains are formed as the two plates push into each other if they are of the same density.
c. controlling
b. manipulated
d. dependent
b) gram (used to measure mass)
c) cubic centimeter (used to measure volume)
Answer:
Option (c)
Explanation:
The combination of two or more fundamental units is called derived unit. For example, cubic metre, newton per metre, metre per second.
Thus, cubic centimetre is a derived unit.
