When a solute molecule is solvated, is energy released or absorbed?

Energy is released when a solute molecule is solvated.

If a hydrogen atom is neutral, it must also have  one electron. an oxygen atom (o) has an atomic number of eight (8). this means a neutral oxygen atom has eight protons and eight electrons. the element actium (ac) has an atomic number of 89, so it has 89 protons and 89 electrons in a neutral atom

Non metal is an element or substance that is not a metal metal is a solid material that is typically hard, shiny, malleable, fusible, and ductile, with good electrical and thermal conductivitymetalloid is an element (e.g., germanium or silicon) whose properties are intermediate between those of metals and solid nonmetals. they are electrical semiconductors.
