<u>X(N03)2</u>

Given: Consider a hypothetical atom x

molecular formula of calcium nitrate = Ca(NO3)2

formula of x chloride is xcl2

molecular formula for x nitrate = ?

  • we are first putting calcium with chloride
  • on checking calcium on the periodic table we observe it in group 2
  • so calcium has two plus charge
  • whereas chloride being a halogen it is observed in group 7
  • it forms ion with one negative charge which would become CaCl2
  • so if we have Ca(NO3)2 and see a Cl2
  • with our hypothetical atom x , if the formula of x with chloride as XCl2 then formula with the nitrate is going to be x
  • this will be similar to calcium because calcium is just like it when we look at calcium with chloride
  • hence when x goes with nitrate it is going to look just like the formula for calcium nitrate
  • this gives us the final answer to be <u>X(NO3)2</u>

Selenium (Se) has 30 protons and 20 neutrons in each atom, therefore its atomic
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

30, 50

Explanation:

Hello,

In this since an element's atomic number is equal to the number of protons in its atom, we can infer that selenium's atomic number is 30. Moreover, due to the fact the the neutrons are equal to the atomic mass minus the atomic number or the number of protons, by knowing the number of neutrons we compute the atomic as follows:

neutrons=mass-protons\\\\mass=neutrons+protons\\\\mass=30+20\\\\mass=50a.m.u

Thus, answer is 30, 50.

Best regards.

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons does the following isotope contain?<br> 27 A13+
Lapatulllka [165]

Hey there!

27 tells us the sum of protons and neutrons is 27.

Al tells us we have 13 protons.

3+ tells us that there are 3 less electrons than protons.

13 + n = 27

neutrons = 14

13 - 3 = 10 electrons

27Al3+ has 13 protons, 14 neutrons, and 10 electrons.

Hope this helps!

The electron configuration of an element is 1s22s22p4. Describe what most likely happens when two atoms of this element move tow
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

When the two atoms move towards each other a compound is formed by sharing electron pairs supplied by each of the atoms to enable them have the stable 8 (octet) valency electrons in their outermost shell

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of the given element can be written as follows;

1s²2s²2p⁴

The given electronic configuration is equivalent to that of oxygen, therefore, we have;

The number of electrons in the valence shell = 2 + 4 = 6 electrons

Therefore, each atom requires 2 electrons to complete its 8 (octet) electrons in the outermost shell

When the two atoms move towards each other, they react and combine to form a compound by sharing 4 electrons, 2 from each atom, such that each atom can have an extra 2 electrons in its outermost orbit in the newly formed compound and the stable octet configuration is attained by each of the atoms in the newly formed compound.
