What else can I help you with?
Which electrons in an atomic take part in chemical bonding and what are they called?
outer energy level electrons... called valence electrons
What is the process called to replace lost electrons?
The process of replacing lost electrons is called reduction. Reduction involves the gain of electrons by an atom, ion, or molecule.
What is called when electrons are not shared equally in a molecule?
When electrons are not shared equally in a molecule, it is called polarization or an unequal distribution of charge. This can create regions of partial positive and negative charges within the molecule, leading to dipole moments and creating polar molecules.
Two atoms linked together is called?
Any number of atoms joined together by means of chemical bonds is called a molecule. The number of atoms in a particular molecule varies.
What is a neutral particle that forms as a result of electron sharing?
A neutral particle formed when atoms share electrons?
Which term indicates how strongly an atom attracts the electron in a chemical bond?
Linus Pauling defined electronegativity as "the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself."
What is induced force?
the positive end of one molecule attracts the mobile electrons of the nearby non polar molecule in this way polarity is induced these forces called as dipole-induce dipole forces
How much an element attracts electrons is called what?
Electronegativity
A chemical bond formed when two atoms share electrons is called a(n)?
a covalent bond is when two atoms share a pair of electrons
Molecules that furnish electrons during a chemical reaction are called?
Molecules that furnish electrons during a chemical reaction are called reducing agents or electron donors. These molecules undergo oxidation as they donate electrons to another molecule, known as the oxidizing agent or electron acceptor.
When a molecule gains oxygen or loses electrons its called?
When a molecule gains oxygen, it is called oxidation. When a molecule loses electrons, it is called reduction. Together, oxidation and reduction make up redox reactions.
The loss of electrons by a molecule atom or ion is called?
oxidation. Gaining electrons is called reduction.
What are two or more unlike atoms held together by chemical bonds called?
Two non-identical atoms held together by the sharing of two electrons in a bond, is called a molecule. Two identical atoms held together by the sharing of two electrons, is called a diatomic molecule.
What is a substance formed by chemical bonds called?
A chemical molecule
A chemical reaction that removes electrons from an atom is?
called oxidation. In oxidation, an atom or molecule loses electrons, resulting in an increase in its oxidation state. This process can involve the transfer of electrons to another atom or molecule.
Why is there no such molecule as methane?
There is a molecule called methane; its chemical formula is CH4.
What is it called when you add another atom?
When you add another atom to a molecule, it is called a chemical reaction or a process of chemical bonding, resulting in the formation of a new compound. This can involve sharing, transferring, or rearranging electrons between atoms to create new chemical bonds.
