    So also, nonmetals that have near 8 electrons in their valence shells tend to promptly acknowledge electrons to accomplish honorable gas arrangement. In ionic holding, more than 1 electron can be given or got to fulfill the octet run the show. The charges on the anion and cation relate to the quantity of electrons gave…

    Atoms, ions, and isotopes are everything you eat, breathe and see. They are everywhere and everything is made up of them. The first person that aided in the discovery of the atom was Democritus in 400 BC. He is the one that named the atom. The word atom comes from the Greek word atomos which means indivisible. Aristotle which was another flossier in at that same time disagreed with him. He believed that matter could be divide infinitely without changing its properties. At that time more people…

    When two or more atoms chemically bond with each other, the resultant chemical structure is a molecule. The familiar water molecule, H2O, consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, which bond together to form water . Atoms can form molecules by donating, accepting, or sharing electrons to fill their outer shells. These processes go under Covalent or Ionic bonding. A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. It only happens between…

    Q. Why do wire and a compass work to detect electric currents? A. I’m going to start off with the basics here. A compass points north. Everyone knows that. Why does it point north? Well, all magnets have two “poles” or ends. One end of the magnet is called the north-seeking pole. The north-seeking pole is often abbreviated to north pole or the letter N. The north pole end of a magnet is usually colored red. The other end of a magnet is called the south-seeking pole. The south-seeking pole is…

    At the water molecule occurs the covalent bond. Hydrogen has an inferior electronegativity compared with oxygen.4 Oxygen attracted the negatively charged electrons, and it makes the oxygen has a negative charge. 4 The opposite applies to hydrogen, and makes it has a positive…

    negatively charged beta particle due to the lack of neutrons to hold the particles together which will, in turn, throw the balance of the particles off making it unstable.Beta particles are shown by the symbol which shows that the beta particle has a charge of -1 this also give it an almost massless effect as well.Beta particles travel at very high speeds almost at the speed of light although it exact speed can vary.Alpha particles have the same structure as a helium nucleus of 2 neutrons and 2…

    shows that other prisons are charging inmates a certain dollar amount for every day they are incarcerated and additional charges for things such as parole, visitation, and probation. Vega and Rawlings also tell their readers the affects these charges have on inmates post prison. Now there are many other articles just like these two. These two articles show the facts concerning charges inmates have to…

    positive charge. Hence his model was known as plum pudding model. It was also known as watermelon model where the positive charge was the flesh of the watermelon and the electrons were the sects. a) J.J. Thomson who discovered the electron in 1897, proposed the plum pudding model of the atom in 1904 before the discovery of the atomic nucleus in order to include the electron in the atomic model. b) In Thomson’s model, the atom is composed of electron surrounded by a soup of positive charge to…

    work is through the property known as the ‘photoelectric effect’ that causes some materials to absorb photons of light and release electrons that are captured, forming an electric current. “The photoelectric effect was first noted by a French physicist, Edmund Bequerel, in 1839” he found that specific materials would produce electric currents when in exposure to light, such as the light radiated from the sun, Sol (Knier 1). “In 1905, Albert Einstein described the nature of light and the…
