A. atoms can bond together in several different ways. name three types of chemical bonding. explain what happens to electrons in each type of bonding.

b. why are the elements in the far right column of the periodic table nonreactive?

c. what type of element gains electrons in ionic bonding, and what type of charge will it create?

d. why do nonmetals make poor electrical conductors?

Explanation:

a) Three types of chemical bondings:

b) Those elements are named as Noble gases which inert in nature that is less reactive due to fully filled electronic configuration.

Their general electronic configuration is given by:

n = principle quantum number

c) In an ionic bonding, electrons are transferred to the electronegative atom from the electropositive atom.

Electronegative: An atom which gains an electrons.Negative charge carrying ion is formed.

Electropositive : An atom which looses electrons.Positive charge carrying ion is formed.

d) This because the band width between the conduction band and valence band is large due to which electrons will not able to jump from valence band to conduction band.This makes the non metal poor electrical conductors.

b. false

explanation:

suppose a rock in free fall is dropped off a cliff. after falling for 5 seconds, its speed would not be 100 m/s.
