Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the neutral atom with 10 electrons

A neutral atom with 10 electrons is neon (Ne), which has an atomic number of 10.

Step 2: Identify cations with 10 electrons

To find cations with 10 electrons, we need to consider atoms that lose electrons to achieve 10 electrons.

  1. Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 11. When it loses one electron, it becomes \( \text{Na}^+ \) with 10 electrons.
  2. Magnesium (Mg) has an atomic number of 12. When it loses two electrons, it becomes \( \text{Mg}^{2+} \) with 10 electrons.

Final Answer

\[ \boxed{\text{Ne}, \ \text{Na}^+, \ \text{Mg}^{2+}} \]

Determine whether the following function is a polynomial function. If the function is a polynomial function, state its degree. If it is not, tell why not. Write the polynomial in standard form. Then identify the leading term and the constant term. F(x)=4 x^6-π x^4+1/2 Determine whether F(x) is a polynomial or not. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. A. It is a polynomial of degree . (Type an integer or a fraction.) B. It is not a polynomial because the variable x is raised to the (Type an integer or a fraction.) power, which is not a nonnegative integer. C. It is not a polynomial because the function is the ratio of two distinct polynomials, and the polynomial in the denominator is of positive degree. Write the polynomial in standard form. Then identify the leading term and the constant term. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. A. The polynomial in standard form is F(x)= with the leading term (Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the expressions.) and the constant . B. The function is not a polynomial.
