The correct answer is: Atoms are the building blocks that make up elements. At the center of each atom is a nucleus composed of small particles called protons and neutrons. Nuclei is the plural of nucleus; option C.

<h3>What is atomic number of an element?</h3>

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom of the element.

The nucleus is the center of the atom and is the heaviest part of the atom.

Another sub-atomic particle fund in the nucleus is the neutron.

Elements are named according to the number of protons in the nuclei.. This is because the number of protons in the nucleus of any given atom whereas the neutron number may vary, Also, electrons are easily removed from atoms of elements.

In conclusion, the number of protos in atom is used to name the atom.

A chemical reaction in which atoms have their oxidation number (oxidation state) changed.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron.

The solubility of calcium oxalate, CaC2O4, in pure water is 4.8 × 10‑5 moles per liter. Cal­culate the value of Ksp for silver c
inn [45]

Answer:

2.3 × 10⁻⁹

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the reaction for the solution of calcium oxalate

CaC₂O₄(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + C₂O₄²⁻(aq)

Step 2: Make an ICE chart

We can relate the molar solubility (S) with the solubility product constant (Ksp) through an ICE chart.

        CaC₂O₄(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + C₂O₄²⁻(aq)

I                                0                 0

C                              +S               +S

E                                S                 S

The solubility product constant is:

Ksp = [Ca²⁺] × [C₂O₄²⁻] = S² = (4.8 × 10⁻⁵)² = 2.3 × 10⁻⁹

Calculate the energy required to ionize a ground state hydrogen atom. report your answer in kilojoules.
hjlf

First we find for the wavelength of the photon released due to change in energy level. We use the Rydberg equation:

1/ʎ = R [1/n1^2 – 1/n2^2]

where,

ʎ is the wavelength

R is the rydbergs constant = 1.097×10^7 m^-1

n1 is the 1st energy level = 1

n2 is the higher energy level = infinity, so 1/n2 = 0

 

Calculating for ʎ:

1/ʎ = 1.097×10^7 m^-1 * [1/1^2 – 0]

ʎ = 9.1158 x 10^-8 m

 

Then calculate the energy using Plancks equation:

E = hc/ʎ

where,

h is plancks constant = 6.626×10^−34 J s

c is speed of light = 3x10^8 m/s

 

E = (6.626×10^−34 J s * 3x10^8 m/s) / 9.1158 x 10^-8 m

E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J = 2.18 x 10^-21 kJ

 

This is still per atom, so multiply by Avogadros number = 6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mol:

E = (2.18 x 10^-21 kJ / atom) * (6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mol)

E = 1312 kJ/mol
