QUESTION:

Problem 2E

Which periodic property is particularly important to nerve signal transmission? Why?

ANSWER:

Solution 2E:Step 1: Ionic bonding: Ionic bonding is defined as the complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms. It is achemical bond which is generated by using two oppositely charged ions. Generally metals losetheir electrons to form positively charged cation, whereas nonmetals accept those electrons tobecome negatively charged anions.Therefore, to forming ionic bonds, one acceptor and onedonor is required.
