Explain how you would determine the charge of a metal, a non metal and a transition metal for an ion within a compound. Be prepared to provide the charge of an element on the periodic table from each of these categories.

In a sample of oxygen gas at room temperature, the average kinetic energy of all the balls stays constant. which postulate of kinetic molecular theory best explains how this is possible? a. attractive forces between gas particles are negligible because the particles of an ideal gas are moving so quickly. b. collisions between gas particles are elastic; there is no net gain or loss of kinetic energy. c. gases consist of a large number of small particles, with a lot of space between the particles. d. gas particles are in constant, random motion, and higher kinetic energy means faster movement.
