Atomic number of potassium is = 19
Electronic configuration is = 1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P6 4S1 = [Ar] 4S1
Potassium (K) looses one electron to become a positive ion i.e., cation.
Nitrogen = atomic number = 7 = 1S2 2S2 2P3
Nitrogen has to gain 3 electrons to become like Neon with electron configuration 1S2 2S2 2P6.
Valence electrons indicate the electrons present in outer shell.'Valence electrons of nitrogen are 3 or 5 while for potassium number of valence electrons is 1.
How many electrons does potassium need to lose to become an ion? Will it become a...
How many electrons must nitrogen gain to become like its closest noble gas, Neon?
Constants I Periodic Table Learning Goal: To become familiar with the octet rule and to use it to determine the charges of ions. Noble gases are especially stable because their valence shells are full. This is referred to as having an octet, because most valence shells contain eight electrons. Other elements will gain or lose electrons to achieve an octet and become an ion. A positively charged ion has lost electrons and is called a cation whereas a negatively charged...
Electron transfer is the term for this process. The resulting anion and cation are attracted by Coulombic forces and an ionic compound is formed. Ionic compounds are neutral: the number of electrons lost in forming the cation(s) must equal the number gained in forming the anion(s). For example, Aluminum (Al, Z = 13, Group 3A or 13) will lose 3 electrons to become Al3+ which is isoelectronic with Neon (Ne), its closest noble gas. To form an ionic compound those...
Metals lose electrons under certain conditions to attain a noble gas electron configuration. How many electrons must be lost by the element Li? number of electrons: Which noble gas electron configuration is attained in this process? O krypton O neon O argon O xenon O radon O helium
Nitrogen has five electrons in its valence shell. How many electrons does it need to gain to complete its valence shell?
46) How many electrons will lithium gain or lose when it forms an ion? A) lose 1 (B) gain 5 C) lose 2 D) gain
Nonmetals gain electrons under certain conditions to attain a noble gas electron configuration. How many electrons must be gained by the element oxygen (O) to attain noble gas electron configuration? number of electrons: Which noble gas electron configuration is attained in this process? O neon krypton helium O argon O radon O xenon
Because of the number of valence electrons (determined above], how many electrons will the lose or gain or what charge will the given elements most likely have? Also indicate the number of bonds each atom will most likely make due to the number of valence electrons.
