The valence level of an atom refers to the number of electrons that reside in the upper most energy level. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7 and therefore has 7 electrons. The first energy level (1) holds 2 electrons, leaving 5 electrons to reside in the second energy level (2s and 2p). Therefore the valence of nitrogen is 5.
An element can be represented symbolically in terms of its atomic number and mass number as:
_{Z}^{A}\textrm{X}
where X = symbol of the element
A = atomic mass
Z = atomic number
In this case we have the representation as:
_{0}^{1}\textrm{n}
where n = symbol for neutron
mass number of neutron = 1
charge/atomic number of neutron = 0
Ans: D) A neutron of zero charge and one unit mass
Answer:
B
Explanation:
If the concentration is increased, there are more particles to collide with each other, increasing the rate of the reaction.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
reaction order is simply the sum of orders for each reactant.
