How many valence electron does Ca lose or gain to attain noble-gas electron configuration?
Calcium loses two electrons to obtain a noble-gas electron configuration.
How could iodine atoms react to achieve a noble gas configuration?
Iodine accepts one electron to achieve noble gas configuration. Strontium loses two electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Nitrogen accepts three electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Krypton already has a noble gas configuration.
What happens to an atom of fluorine (F) when it forms an ionic bond in which it has the same electron configuration as the noble gas neon?
It accepts one electron.
What is the correct noble gas configeration for Li?
The electron configuration and noble gas core for Li+ is that of He: Li+: (1s2, 2s0)
Is copper noble gas?
yes, Cu+ has a pseudo-noble-gas electron configuration
What happens when potassium achieves a noble gas state?
Potassium loses one electron to form K+ ion that has the noble gas configuration of the element neon.
How many valence electron does Ca lose or gain to attain noble-gas electron configuration?
Calcium loses two electrons to obtain a noble-gas electron configuration.
Why lithium highly reactive?
if lithium loses one electron it attains the stable noble gas electron configuration of helium. hence it is highly reactive.
What happens if a calcium atom loses an electron to a chlorine atom?
Because calcium has 2 valence electrons, it needs to get rid of them to have a stable noble gas conformation. Chlorine atom has 7 VE and only needs to gain one electron to have the noble gas conformation. Therefore one calcium will give one electron to two chlorine atoms, therefore resulting in an ionic bond.
Is Calcium stable by losing 1 electron?
No. Calcium gains the noble gas configuration (octet) if it loses two electrons and not one.
Does (k) lose electrons to form cations?
Yes it does. Potassium has one valence electron. It loses this electron to from the cation, K+, thereby attaining stable noble gas configuration.
What happens to an atom of fluorine when it forms an ionic bond in which it has the same electron configuration as the noble gas neon?
It accepts one electron.
How could iodine atoms react to achieve a noble gas configuration?
Iodine accepts one electron to achieve noble gas configuration. Strontium loses two electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Nitrogen accepts three electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Krypton already has a noble gas configuration.
What happens to an atom of fluorine F when it forms an ionic bond in which it has the same electron configuration as the noble gas neon?
It accepts one electron.
What happens to an atom of fluorine (F) when it forms an ionic bond in which it has the same electron configuration as the noble gas neon?
It accepts one electron.
What is the noble gas configuration for F?
The "Noble gas electron configuration," or the condensed electron configuration, for F is [He] 2s2 3p5.
How many electron shells do noble gases have?
The number of electron shells depends on the noble gas. The number of shells will be equal to the period in which the noble gas is present.
