Which atom is most likely to accept electrons to form an ionic bond? A. a mercury ion with a negative 2 charge
B. a potassium ion with a negative 1 charge
C. radon, a noble gas with 8 valence electrons
D. sulfur, a nonmetal with 6 valence electrons

The answer is A

Explanation:

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy
