To change "lose" to "gain" by altering one letter at a time, you could follow this sequence:
- lose
- lope (change 's' to 'p')
- lape (change 'o' to 'a')
- gape (change 'l' to 'g')
- gain (change 'p' to 'i')
This way, each step is a valid English word, and you achieve the final transformation.
What else can I help you with?
Can an atom gain or lose protons why or why not?
No, an atom cannot gain or lose protons. Protons are the positively charged particles within the nucleus of an atom, and changing the number of protons would change the atom's identity. However, atoms can gain or lose electrons, which affects their charge but not their identity.
Why do atoms change to ions?
Because they either lose or gain valence electrons.
How does change of state take place?
for a state change to happen it must lose or gain or loose kinetic energy
How many protons will uranium have after releasing a beta particle?
It depends on whether the beta decay sequence is beta- or beta+. In beta-, the atom will gain a proton, changing into neptunium. In beta+, the atom will lose a proton, changing into protactinium.
What do atoms do that alters there overall neutral charge?
Atoms either gain or lose electrons to change their overall neutral charge.
Can an atom gain or lose protons why or why not?
No, an atom cannot gain or lose protons. Protons are the positively charged particles within the nucleus of an atom, and changing the number of protons would change the atom's identity. However, atoms can gain or lose electrons, which affects their charge but not their identity.
What happens to the temperatures of a substance while it is changing state?
It can lose or gain energy or it forms the attractions between particles.
Do atoms lose protons but seldom lose or gain electrons?
Atoms typically do not lose protons because that would change the identity of the element. Instead, atoms can lose or gain electrons to form ions with a different charge. Protons are not generally lost by atoms in chemical reactions.
What happens to temperature of a substance while it is changing state?
It can lose or gain energy or it forms the attractions between particles.
What happens to the temperature of substance while it is changing state?
It can lose or gain energy or it forms the attractions between particles.
Why do atoms change to ions?
Because they either lose or gain valence electrons.
Are you going to lose any of your information or files if you change your desktop?
If you are changing the desktop background, you will not, and if you are changing the layout of the desktop, it will not either.
What cannot change in an atom is it protons neutrons or electrons?
An atoms protons cannot change.The number of neutrons can change (gain or lose) to form an isotope (ex. Hydrogen naturally has no neutrons. But it can gain neutrons to form Heavy Hydrogen, or in other words, a Hydrogen Isotope).An atom can gain or lose electrons to form an ion. Usually an atom will gain or lose electrons to fill its valence (outermost) shell. It takes just as much energy to gain an electron as it is to lose one, so an atom will always look to lose or gain the least amount of electrons possible. (ex. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons. It will look to gain 2 electrons, rather than lose 6).Protons: DO NOT CHANGENeutrons: Can change to form an isotopeElectrons: Can change to form an ion
How does change of state take place?
for a state change to happen it must lose or gain or loose kinetic energy
Why you gain a day while going to west and lose one to east?
time change
Do particles lose or gain energy when changing from a liquid to a gas?
Particles gain energy when changing from a liquid to a gas as they absorb heat energy. This extra energy allows the particles to break free from the intermolecular forces that hold them together in the liquid state, enabling them to move more freely in the gas phase.
When compounds gain electrons they lose or gain energy?
Lose
