If the sentence is true, write true. if the sentence is false , replace the underlined word to make the sentence true.

1, elements (separate) to form compounds .

2, electrons are located in a (cloud) around the nucleus.

3, atoms can lose or gain electrons to form (elements)

1. False

Elements bond to form compounds.

Consider that compounds are essentially clumped up atoms. Knowing this, we know that atoms don’t separate, but rather combine in order to make compounds.

2. True

3. False

Atoms cam lose or gain electrons to form ionic bonds.

When at atom doesn’t have enough electrons to become stable, it will either give or take electrons from another atom in order to become stable. However, because of the fact that the atoms become oppositely charge, they attract each other, thus forming an ionic bond

that tool would be a compass

it can be observed without changing the identity of the object.

it depends on what substance you're talking about as well as many other factors. in quantum mechanics, the observation of particles affects the observers ability to measure certain properties. for example: you can know the velocity of a particle, but you can't know it's position; or you can know it's position, but not it's velocity. it's like trying to find out where a grain of sand is by throwing other grains of sand at it. once you find out where it is, it's been moved. it's also like trying to find an answer to the question of whether or not a tree falling in a forest makes a sound if nobody is there to hear it. paradoxically, the only way to find out is to be there and hear it.
