What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron?
The question is: What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron?This question may seem hard and/or confusing, but it's really not. You just have to think about it for a minute. This question was in my science quiz online. I had to take LOTS of notes, and guess what?, the answer was right there in my notes..The notes that I took for this question had the topic:Electrons in an ElementMy notes were:-Electrons occupy the electron cloud.-Each electron occupies an energy state.-Electrons farther from the nucleus occupy a higher energy state.-The electron cloud is divided into energy levels.-Each energy level can hold a certain number of electrons-Valence Electrons are usually found in the highest energy level.Not very much notes, but lots of information, and most of them are about energy, and one is about Valence electrons. So, let's figure this.If a valence electron usually have the highest energy level, then a nonvalence electron must not have any energy levels. So, what you would have to add to the nonvalence electron is add energy to become a valence electron.Our question is: What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron?So the answer to our question is: Energy. Energy can be added.
How would you use photograph in a sentence?
The photograph would remind us all about the prom.
Was rutherfords model of the atom incorrect or incomplete?
Rutherford's model of the atom was one that resembled the solar system. The nucleus took the place of the sun, at the centre. The electrons followed well-defined orbits around the nucleus so that it should be possible to determine the location and motion of the electrons. In fact, electrons orbit the nucleus in a cloud. It is not possible to know their position and momentum at the same time.
What did the invention of the airplane and the discovery of the atom have in common?
This took me so long to figure out i'm not sure it is right but this is the best answer i can come up with - They are both even, balanced and equal because a plane design is even and balanced to be able to fly, and a normal atom is balanced and even as well.
How can you tell if an element will conduct energy?
Elements are in fact a bundle of energy if you will. I believe what your asking is How can you tell if an element will conduct electricity. If an atom contains less the the required atoms for its outer shell to become full and stable, it is classified as a conductor. Here's why: The atoms of a given element is composed of the protons, neutrons, and electrons. Electrons are the "electricity" part of an atom. These electrons orbit the protons and neutrons that are at the center of the atom. The electrons are in Valence shells, which is basically which orbit the electrons are on, the closest shell/orbit can contain only 2 electrons, and then it is said to be stable and full; the second valence shell/orbit can only contain 8 electrons, and then it is said to be stable and full; the third valence shell/orbit can only contain 8 electrons, and then it is said to be stable and full also ect.... Now, if we took the third valence shell, and it only contained 1 electron, it is NOT stable and full, so this 1 electron/electricity-part-of-the-atom is free to float around to other empty shells. This is due to the fact that the electrons always want to be in a stable shell/orbit. Some atoms of certain elements naturally contain a full AND therefore stable outer valence shell, (the furthest shell/orbit away.) If an atom contains less the the required atoms for its outer shell to become full and stable, it is classified as a conductor.
Can an atoms take away an electron from an atom of another element?
No. Removing an electron from any atom of any element will not change what element it is. An element is identified by the number of protons in its nucleus. Only that. Fooling around with an electron or three will make no difference.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The above is entirely correct. However a change in the number of electrons naturally associated with an atom changes that atom into what is called a "Ion". An ion is an atom that is no longer electrically neutral.
What happens to the charges of an atom if the one proton and electron are removed?
Removal would cause the atom to change from an atom would change it into an atom of the element with an atomic number one less. Now what happens next? It depends on whether the isotope of the element you have just made is stable. If not it will undergo radioactive decay. (Note hydrogen would of course disappear if you removed 1 proton and 1 electron)
If an atom has one valence electron what will it form?
Since the element has only one valence electron, it will be very easy for it to lose it and form an ionic bond.
Would foxes increase if you took them away or not?
If you took foxes away, they would decrease, at least in the area where you took them from. If the area you took them to was an ideal habitat for them, they could then perhaps increase.
What is the nucleus referred to?
A charged atom is called an Ion (pronounced like eye-on) of whatever base element. For example hydrogen usually has one proton and one electron. If you took away it's electron it would have a positive charge and therefore be a hydrogen ion.

What kind of ions do a sodium atom and a chlorine atom become when a valance electron is transferred one to the other?
First off sodium. Sodium is an alkali metal and when alkali metals react they lose an electron. When an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged. Chlorine is in the halogen family and when they react they gain one electron, when an atom gains an electron, it becomes negative charged. So, Sodium=Positive Chlorine=Negative I got this as an homework question yesterday, took like 5mins but i finally figured it out :)
If you took one proton away from an iron atom would it still be iron?
Yes, removing one proton from an iron atom would change its identity from iron to manganese because the number of protons in an atom determines its element. Iron has 26 protons while manganese has 25 protons.
What is the main difference between an atom and an ion?
Basically, an ion is when the charge of an element is not what it would normally be. So if you took oxygen, which is naturally a -2 charge, and it lost an electron, it would become an oxygen ion with a charge of -1.
If i had 10 and someone took 5 how much money would i have left?
If you had 10 and someone took away 5 you would have been left 5.
If i had 3 apples and i took 2 away how many would i have?
22 1apple
Does sodium become positive or negative when it loses it's outer electron?
Sodium (Na) is a metal and metals tend to form cations. Cations are positively charged ions. For experimental purposes Na is assumed to have a 1+ charge anyway, so if you took away another electron the resulting ion would have s stronger positive charge.
