What is the difference between an electron donor and electron acceptor?
Donor atoms are atoms that donate electrons and have an extra pair of electrons in their orbital. Acceptor atoms are atoms that accept electrons and have a empty orbital to accommodate the extra electrons.
Why are the elements in the halogen family very reactive?
The elements in the halogen family are in group 7 and thus have 7 valence electrons. They are very reactive because the want an additional electron to complete the octet. They can get this additional electron by reacting with another element willing to donate that electron. A perfect example is an element from group 1 or 2 (alkali or alkali earth) which wants to donate an electron.
What bond will occur between metal and halogen?
Ionic. The metal will donate electron(s) to the halogen that will accept electrons. NaCl, for example.
What element group is considered to be an electron donor?
metals.this is because metals contain "free electrons" in thier outermost shells which are weakly held by the nucleus. so they are able to donate electrons
Metals tend to gain electrons to attain the electron configuration of noble gases?
true, just not for Boron witch tries to gain 6 electrons for a stable arrangement
Do metals donate or accept electrons and what do they become?
Metals donate electrons by losing electrons and forming positive ions.
What does FADH2 do in ETC?
FADH2 is an electron carrier similar to NADH, but only the second protein in the ETC accepts FADH2 electrons. So FADH2 is used in the ETC, but it produces less ATP due to it only entering the second protein in the ETC.
General explanation for acid and alkali?
Acids receive electron. Alkalis donate. Acids donate hydrogen ion in solution. Alkalis donate hydroxyl ion in solution. Alkalis donate lone pair electrons.
What is the difference between an electron donor and electron acceptor?
Donor atoms are atoms that donate electrons and have an extra pair of electrons in their orbital. Acceptor atoms are atoms that accept electrons and have a empty orbital to accommodate the extra electrons.
How many electrons does lithium give out when it reacts?
It has (and can donate) its only one valence electron: Lithium is in group 1.
What does NADH and FADH2 power?
NADH and FADH2 are electron carriers. They are said to have reducing power because they donate electrons to components of the electron transport chain.
What is back bonding in metal carbonyls?
carbonyl in electron acceptor ligand it has empty orbital which can accept electron as well as filled orbital which can donate electrons . when carbonyl binds with metal it donates the electrons ,metal which is in low oxidation state now has excess electrons and it becomes stable if it back donate some electrons to the carbonyl in its anti bonding orbital forming a pi bond
What is an atom that donates an electron called?
A substance that can donate a lone pair of electrons is called a Lewis base. The definition of a Lewis base is a compound or ionic species that can donate an electron pair to an acceptor compound.
Which molecules donate electrons to the electron transport chain?
I have no idea i clicked on the wrong question to answer
When atoms donate and accept electrons?
Donate electrons: oxidation.Accept electrons: reduction.
How does a atom become a positive ion?
This is by gaining (-) or losing (+) electrons
