Metal atoms tend to lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, forming positive ions. Non-metal atoms tend to gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, forming negative ions. When a metal and non-metal come together, the transfer of electrons from the metal to the non-metal leads to the formation of ionic bonds. The resulting attraction between the oppositely charged ions creates a stable compound.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. Mixtures, on the other hand, are combinations of different substances that are physically mixed together, but not chemically bonded.
When atoms combine, they form molecules. The type of molecule formed depends on the atoms involved and how they bond with each other. Bonding can occur through ionic bonds (transfer of electrons) or covalent bonds (sharing of electrons).
Atoms bond together to form molecules through the sharing or transfer of electrons. Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons, while ionic bonds are formed when atoms transfer electrons. These bonds create stable structures known as molecules.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei, resulting in different atomic masses. This is how there can be two different atoms of iridium.
Atoms of the same element cannot have different numbers of protons. Different numbers of protons mean different elements. An atom with the a different number of neutrons is called an isotope.
Chemical bonds hold large numbers of different molecules together by forming attractive forces between atoms. These bonds can be covalent, where atoms share electrons, or ionic, where electrons are transferred between atoms to create charged particles that attract each other. These interactions contribute to the stability and structure of molecules and materials.
a group of the same attoms create an element and a group composed of different atoms forms a compound
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. Mixtures, on the other hand, are combinations of different substances that are physically mixed together, but not chemically bonded.
A general name for a pure substance containing different atoms chemically joined together is a compound. Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements bond together through chemical reactions to create a new substance with unique properties.
the two atoms belong to two different elements
When atoms combine, they form molecules. The type of molecule formed depends on the atoms involved and how they bond with each other. Bonding can occur through ionic bonds (transfer of electrons) or covalent bonds (sharing of electrons).
These atoms are called isotopes.
Yes, atoms of different elements have a different number of protons.
No, they can't. Atoms (be careful of the difference between atoms and ions) can only have different numbers of neutrons, and those are called isotopes.
Non-ionic and non-isotopic atoms (i.e normal, stable atoms) all have different numbers of protons and electrons.
When two different atoms combine together they create an element. You can find all the elements on the periodic table.
All atoms of an element contain the same number of electrons and protons but they can have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms with different numbers of neutrons are isotopes.
