The low values (23 to 30 dynes/cm) result in easy wetting of most materials, which is helpful for. lubricity and other properties. Electrical Properties. The typical volume resistivity of Halocarbon oil is in the range. of 1013 to 1014 ohm-cm. The dielectric constant is quite low.
When metals form ions, they tend to do so by losing their electrons  to gain a positive charge. Losing negatively charged electrons  causes the metals to become more positiv â¦ e due to having more  protons.
When combine chemically with atoms of other elements, they usually lose valence electrons, becoming positively charged metal ions. Metals lose electrons easily because their valence electrons are not strongly held; Metal atoms combine in a regular patterns in which the valence electrons are free to move from atom to atom.
