Does the ability of atoms to conduct electricity have to with loosely held electrons?
Electrons shared between atoms.
How can you explain the fact that lanthanides are highly electropositive and metallic?
All have few outer energy level electrons which are loosely held by the atom.
What is the energy level farthest away from the nucleus of the atom that holds 8 or more valence electrons?
The valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding. The electrons more loosely held by the nucleus - are the ones that are gained, lost or shared.
Why are magnets attracted?
Magnets have lone pair of electrons in its loosely bounded Shell (valence orbit) the electrons are in spin motion in orbitals In the orbital which don't have two electrons to cancel each other effect of spinning, causes a field around it. Therefore it created a field around the whole element
What is the water loosely held in a crystal structure called?
Hydrate
Does the ability of atoms to conduct electricity have to with loosely held electrons?
Electrons shared between atoms.
The electrons farthest from the nucleus or most loosely held are called?
the electrons on the last shell of an atom are called valency electrons.
How friction can be used to transfer electrons?
When two materials rub together, the loosely held electrons of one material move to the material with the more tightly held electrons.
What kind of atoms are conductors?
Ones with loosely held outer electrons - metals.
How can friction be useful to us?
When two materials rub together, the loosely held electrons of one material move to the material with the more tightly held electrons.
The number of electrons determines what of an element?
The number of loosely held electrons determines the reactivity of an element. Other elements attract electrons and will react also.
How does the burning of natural gas methane release energy?
A. methane contains tightly held electrons. B. Carbon Dioxide and H2O contain loosely held electrons. C. Bonds with loosely held electrons are converted to bonds with tightly held electrons. D. Polar covalent bonds are converted to non-polar. E. C=O and O-H bonds are converted to C-H bonds. Which one????
Is it true the valence electrons are those electrons most loosely held by the atom?
yes it is true, they are the outermost electrons and sometimes get "stolen" by other elements creating an ion
Electrons that are held most loosely in an atom are called what?
The electrons in the valence band, this can be 1 to 8 electrons (in the s and p orbitals of the outer shell) depending on the element.
What are materials called in which the electrons are loosely bound?
Materials in which the electrons are loosely bound are called conductors.
How can you explain the fact that lanthanides are highly electropositive and metallic?
All have few outer energy level electrons which are loosely held by the atom.
