What is formed when sodium chloride reacts with copper sulphate?

I'm not sure, but I think it wont react because sodium chloride is more stable than any compound may be formed such as sodium sulphate or copper chloride


What type of ions do transitional metals typically form?

cations or positive ions, as transition metals lose electrons to achieve a stable arrangement


Is sodium chloride reactive or stable?

It is not reactive.It is a neutral compound.


Explain what atoms are trying to achieve in there electron shells when they bond with each outher?

Atoms are trying achieve a stable electronic configuration i.e., stable arrangement of electrons in their electron shells. All configurations are not stable. Mostly stable configuration is attained by forming an octet of electrons in outer most shell. Sometimes octet rule is violated also.


How do elements acquire a stable atomic structure like that found in a noble gas?

Atoms can achieve a stable outer electron arrangement by gaining, losing or sharing valence electrons with other atoms or ions.


How can you use the word stable to explain why the alkali metals tend to lose valence electrons?

Alkali metals, have only one valence electron so they will "want" to lose it to achieve a stable electron arrangement.


How many stable isotopes does the element copper have?

copper has 2 stable isotopes


Why are the members of group 18 in the periodic table virtually nonreactive?

The noble gases have a stable electron arrangement and so do not need to react to achieve stability

What does the roman mean in an ionic compound?

A Roman number in the name of an ionic compound gives the absolute value of the oxidation number of that element in the compound which immediately precedes the Roman number. This is most common with cations of elements, such as copper and cobalt, that can form stable cations in more than one oxidation state. Copper(II) chloride, for example as the formula CuCl2 while copper(I) chloride has the formula CuCl.
