Answer : 3. "lose electrons"
Explanation :

Answer: C) lose electrons Explanation: Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.   Hence, when Ionic bonds are formed metallic atoms tend to lose electrons and become positive ions

Answer : 1. "4 kmph"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 4 kmph Explanation: Let the speed of current = 'C' km/hr   Given the speed of boat in still water = 6 kmph   Let 'd' kms be the distance it covers.   According to the given data,   Boat takes thrice as much time in going the same distance against the current than going with the current   i.e, d8 - C = 3 × d8 + C   ⇒ 24 - 3C = 8 + C⇒ 4C = 16⇒ C = 4 kmph   Hence, the speed of the current C = 4 kmph.
