The family on the periodic table that has a filled outer
energy level is VIIIA. The answer is letter D. They are also called the noble
gases or inert gases. They are virtually unreactive towards other elements or
compounds. They are found in trace amounts in the atmosphere. Their elemental form
at room temperature is colorless, odorless and monatomic gases. They also have
full octet of eight valence electrons in their highest orbitals so they have a
very little tendency to gain or lose electrons to form ions or share electrons with
other elements in covalent bonds.
Answer:
Noble gases are a unique set of elements in the periodic table because they don't naturally bond with other elements.

Answer:B) a reactant that undergoes reduction
Explanation:
Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases during oxidation.
Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced during reduction.
Overall reaction:
The substance M which itself gets oxidized, reduces other and is called as reducing agent. The substance N which itself gets reduced, oxidizes other and is called as oxidizing agent.
Eukarya cause all cells with nuclei are considered eukaryotic
Answer:
Metals lose electrons to become cations.
Explanation:
For example, sodium loses an electron to become a sodium cation.
Na· ⟶ Na⁺ + e⁻
A is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.
B is <em>wrong</em>. Metals lose electrons.
D is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.
