In the reaction between bromine and sodium, a bromine atom gains an electron and forms the bromide ion, Br–.What happens to bromine?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: After the bromine atom gains an electron and becomes a negatively charged ion, Br-, it is attracted to the Na atom, the sodium atom which as a result of the sodium atom giving its 1 valence electron to bromine, becomes a positively charged ion.

Both the sodium ion and bromine ion are attracted to each other and form an ionic bond. The electrostatic attraction between the ions allows for an ionic bond to form after donation of valence electrons from one atom to another. Ionic structures are usually ionic lattices.

We are given 32 protons, so the 32nd element of the Periodic Table is Selenium (Se).

What will happen as an object receives energy due to heat flow? The molecules will move faster. The molecules will move more slowly.

Answers

The correct answer is the first option. If an object receives energy from heat flow, the molecules of that object will move faster because temperature and kinetic energy is directly proportional. As the heat is added, the temperature increases therefore increasing the kinetic energy of the molecules resulting to a faster motion.

The molecules will move faster

Does Silicon form a cation or is it anion?

Answers

Silicon generally forms at least polar covalent bonds, like carbon, as befits its status as a Gropu 4A nonmetal. The only obvious exception I can think of is SiC, which despite the similarity you might expect to graphite or diamond does, I think, have significant ionic or metallic character to its bonding in the solid state.
