The metalloids fall in between, near. the zigzag line. This trend isnât a coincidence. The number of valence electrons, or electrons in the. outer shell, determines how an element acts. For example, metals have few electrons in their outer shell. This causes them to possess metallic properties such as, conductivity & reactivity. Conversely, the. nonmetals on the right of the periodic table have almost complete sets of electrons in their outer level.
While relations between Cuba & the United States are improving, itâs still technically illegal to travel there. Hereâs how you can travel to Cuba as an American anyway. UPDATE: As of August 2016, there are now regular flights to Cuba from the United States from certain airlines/cities. Keep reading for more information.
However, the possibility of traveling to Cuba expeditiously, with a U.S. passport, could be an incentive for thousands of these legal residents to become U.S. citizens. Thus, these new citizens, at the time they vote in local or federal elections, would do so thinking about their interests and those of their families.
