Which of the following statements explains why atoms are always neutral in charge

Chemistry
1 answer:
laila [671]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

D. They have the same number of protons as electrons.

Explanation:

Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom and have a positive charge while electrons orbit around the nucleus and have a negative charge. Usually, in a neutral atom of an element, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. This is why the atom has no charge because the positive and negative charges cancel out. When an atom loses an electron its charge turns positive while when it gains an electron its charge turns negative.

Which of the following samples had the lowest average kinetic energy?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

B. 10 mL of Cabr2(aq) at 35 degrees celsius

Explanation:

The colder something is the more the atoms are compressed together; atoms can't move as much. 35 degrees is the warmest option, so it makes the most sense.

4. Explain error and how it can impact your results from an experiment
Jet001 [13]

Random errors will shift each measurement from its true value by a random amount and in a random direction. These will affect reliability (since they're random) but may not affect the overall accuracy of a result.

1. NaF, Na₂S, Na₃P, Na₂O

2. MgF₂, MgS, Mg₃P₂, MgO

3. AlF₃, Al₂S₃, AlP, Al₂O₃

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Ionic charge

Required

The formula of binary ionic compounds

Solution

Ionic compounds consisting of cations (ions +) and anions (ions -)

Ionic compounds usually consist of metal cations and non-metal anions

Metal: cation, positively charged.

Nonmetal: negatively charged

The anion cation's charge is crossed

The ionic compounds :

1. NaF, Na₂S, Na₃P, Na₂O

2. MgF₂, MgS, Mg₃P₂, MgO

3. AlF₃, Al₂S₃, AlP, Al₂O₃

These statements describe three different reactions.
Naily [24]

An atom gains an electron from another atom. Hence, option B is the correct answer.

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

An atom is a particle of matter that uniquely defines a chemical element. An atom consists of a central nucleus that is usually surrounded by one or more electrons.

When an atom shares electrons with another atom then it results in the formation of a covalent bond.

Whereas when an atom transfer electrons from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond.

When the nucleus of an atom splits then it represents a nuclear fission reaction and energy is released during this process.

Hence, option B is the correct answer.
