Most atoms do not. For those atoms that do not have a full valence shell (which usually would contain eight electrons, except for hydrogen and helium, where it would contain two), something has to change. So nature's tendency toward a full valence shell will lead to one of two things: The gain or loss of electrons.
Answer:
When you place the north pole of one magnet near the south pole of another magnet, they are attracted to one another.
Explanation:
Answer:
MnO- Manganese Oxide
Explanation:
Empirical formula: This is the formula that shows the ratio of elements
present in a
compound.
How to determine Empirical formula
1. First arrange the symbols of the elements present in the compound
alphabetically to determine the real empirical formula. Although, there
are exceptions to this rule, E.g H2So4
2. Divide the percentage composition by the mass number.
3. Then divide through by the smallest number.
4. The resulting answer is the ratio attached to the elements present in
a compound.
Mn O
% composition 72.1 27.9
Divide by mass number 54.94 16
1.31 1.74
Divide by the smallest number 1.31 1.31
1 1.3
The resulting ratio is 1:1
Hence the Empirical formula is MnO, Manganese oxide
