What happens when chlorine form an ion is that it gains an electron and has an octet in its outer shell ( answer A)
<u><em> Explanation</em></u>
<u><em> </em></u>Chlorine is is in atomic number 17 in periodic table.
The electron configuration of chlorine is 1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P5 or[Ne]3S2 3p5 or 2.8.7.
chlorine therefore has 7 valence electron therefore it gain 1 electron to form Cl- ( ion)
Cl- has 8 electron in its outer shell ( it obeys octet rule of eight valence in outer shell.
The question is asking us to determine what gives the Amethyst its purplish color. Amethyst colors range from light to dark purple. The most highly regarded are the transparent deep purple colors. Amethyst ( chemical formula: Si O2 ) is the purple variety of the mineral Quartz.The pure Quartz is often colorless. Amethyst gets its purplish color because of the presence of Iron ( Fe ) and other impurities in the gem. Answer: C. Iron.<span /><span />
I think its the first 1 C i remember answering this question on my school work
Answer: b) positron
Explanation:
The antiparticle or the antimatter counterpart of the electron is called positron.
The positron has an electric charge of +1 e and same mass as an electron. When a positron collides with an electron, annihilation takes place.
