Atoms can combine only if they are having an incomplete valence shell. They combine to attain an octet structure. They can also share electrons. There are some elements whose atoms do not combine, they are the inert gases.
Yes it does.
Yes. For example, one sodium atom and one chlorine atom combine to make sodium chloride, commonly known as table salt. Two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom make water.
a new element is formed! CO....assuming its one atom each.
Atomic Fusion
Hydrogen- the only atom smaller
One potassium atom can combine with one chlorine atom to form potassium chloride.
One atom of sodium will combine with one atom of chlorine to form one molecule of sodium chloride (NaCl) through ionic bonding.
The two atoms that combine are a metal atom and an oxygen atom.
2 Hydrogen atoms can combine with 1 Oxygen atom to make water. H2O
hydrogen atom
one
Yes it does.
An atom
Yes. For example, one sodium atom and one chlorine atom combine to make sodium chloride, commonly known as table salt. Two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom make water.
a new element is formed! CO....assuming its one atom each.
One sodium atom can combine with one chlorine atom to form a stable ionic compound called sodium chloride (table salt). The sodium atom gives up one electron to the chlorine atom, resulting in a stable arrangement for both atoms.
