Question

Which of the following is true about electrons? Select all that apply.

A) Their mass is so small, it's negligable

B) They have a positive electrial charge

C) "Ions" are atoms that have either more or fewer electrons than protons (but have the same number of electrons as protons)

D) Electrons are shared during an ionic bond

E) In the polar covalvent bonds of a water molecule, electrons spend more time with the oxygen than hydrogens

Expert Solution
Step 1

Electron:- electron(e-) is negatively charged particles and its mass is 9.1×10-31 Kg.

=>Mass of electron is so small so it's is negligible so statement (A) is true.

 

=>As electron has negative charged not positive charge so statement(B) is not true.
