false, it would be true if it didn't say ionic and instead said covalent bond.

How do you use te periodic table to identify the number of electrons available for bonding?

Valence electrons describe the number of available electrons for bonding. The group number describes outermost electron. The elements in same group has same valence electrons.The number of electrons available for bonding are the valence electrons. In an element, the group number is equal to the number of valence electrons. So the number of electrons available for bonding can be identified by the group number.


The electron-group geometry is equal to the number of the bonding pairs of electrons in a covalent bond?

False


What term describes an atom or molecule that has an equal number of protons and electrons, making it electrically neutral in chemistry?

The term that describes an atom or molecule with an equal number of protons and electrons, making it electrically neutral in chemistry, is "neutral."


What is ion and molecule?

a molecule is more than one atom attached together, an ion is an atom/molecule where the number of electrons is not equal to the number of protons in the nucleus


How do you find the number of protons and electrons of a molecule?

To find the number of protons in a molecule, you sum the atomic numbers for each element present in the molecule. Each proton has a positive charge equal to its atomic number. For neutral molecules, the number of protons also equals the number of electrons, as atoms are electrically neutral with equal numbers of protons and electrons.


In an atom the number of what is equal to?

In an atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. That is, in the case of an un-ionized, non valence bonded molecule... If the atom were ionized, it could have fewer or less electrons. If the atom were part of a valence bonded molecule, it could be sharing valence electrons with other atoms.


How the atomic number related to the core electrons?

The atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom's nucleus, which is also equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom. Core electrons are those that are closest to the nucleus and are not involved in chemical bonding. The number of core electrons in an atom is equal to the difference between the atomic number and the number of valence electrons.


The bond order is equal to the number of pairs of electrons in a covalent bond?

Bond order is more accurately described as the average number of chemical bonds between a pair of atoms in a molecule. It is calculated by the difference between the number of bonding electrons and the number of anti-bonding electrons divided by two. A bond order of 0.5 indicates a weak bond, while a bond order of 3 indicates a strong bond.


Do electrons determine what kind of element an atom is?

Yes, the number of electrons in an atom determines its chemical properties and therefore what kind of element it is. The arrangement of electrons in an atom's energy levels is responsible for the element's characteristics such as reactivity and bonding behavior.


What is the negative charge of Ion?

An ion exists as an atom or a molecule where the total number of protons in the nuclei do not equal the atom/molecule's electrons. An example is Ca2+. It has 2 less electrons than it has protons.


What is the meaning of negatively charge?

An ion exists as an atom or a molecule where the total number of protons in the nuclei do not equal the atom/molecule's electrons. An example is Ca2+. It has 2 less electrons than it has protons.


In a covalently bonded molecule the number of electrons that an atom shares with others is usually equal to the number of electrons?

In a covalently bonded molecule, the number of electrons that an atom shares with others is typically equal to the number of electrons needed to achieve a stable octet (or duet for hydrogen). This sharing allows each atom to satisfy the octet rule, resulting in a more stable molecular structure.
