Does the orbiting nucleus of an atom have a positive, negative, or neutral charge

Chemistry
1 answer:
zvonat [6]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

If you look at an atom as a whole, it is electrically neutral and possesses no overall charge.  The nucleus consists of Protons and neutrons, Protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge on them.

Hence, the nucleus of an atom is positively charged and is generally surrounded by one or more electrons.

The electrons on the other hand have a negative charge on them.  

The sign convention for proton (+1), neutron(0) and electron(-1). The nucleus is very heavy but is very small compared to the overall size of an atom.

The number of grams of H2 in 1470 mL of H2 gas. ​
Lorico [155]

Answer:

0.1313 g.

Explanation:

  • It is known that at STP, 1.0 mole of ideal gas occupies 22.4 L.
  • Suppose that hydrogen behaves ideally and at STP conditions.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mol of hydrogen occupies → 22.4 L.

??? mol of hydrogen occupies → 1.47 L.

∴ The no. of moles of hydrogen that occupies 1.47 L = (1.0 mol)(1.47 L)/(22.4 L) = 6.563 x 10⁻² mol.

  • Now, we can get the no. of grams of hydrogen in 6.563 x 10⁻² mol:

<em>The no. of grams of hydrogen = no. of hydrogen moles x molar mass of hydrogen</em> = (6.563 x 10⁻² mol)(2.0 g/mol) = <em>0.1313 g.</em>

Assuming an electron is a hydrogen atom can undergo any of the transitions below, thus changing its energy. Which transition is
inn [45]

Answer:

n = 3 to n = 5

Explanation:

According to the Bohr's model of the atom, electrons in an atom absorb energy to move from a lower to higher energy level.

We must note that as we progress away from the nucleus, the energy levels of electrons become closer together. The energy difference between successive levels decreases and the wavelength of light associated with such transitions become longer.

Hence,the absorption of light of the longest wavelength corresponds to n = 3 to n = 5
