If a hydrogen atom gains an electron, then

Chemistry

<span>The charge of the ion becomes negative. This is because electrons naturally come with a negative charge. Adding one electron will make the charge 1-, as it was a balanced atom before taking on the additional particle.</span>

A chemical compound in which ions are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bonds
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Ionic compounds contain ions and are held together by the attractive forces among the oppositely charged ions

Explanation:

Common salt (sodium chloride) is one of the best-known ionic compounds. Molecular compounds contain discrete molecules, which are held together by sharing electrons (covalent bonding).

calcium has atomic number of 20 how many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding
Lelu [443]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.

Calculate the number of hydrogen atoms present in 40g of urea, (NH2)2CO
tekilochka [14]

Answer: There are 16.14 \times 10^{23} atoms of hydrogen are present in 40g of urea, (NH_{2})_{2}CO.

Explanation:

Given: Mass of urea = 40 g

Number of moles is the mass of substance divided by its molar mass.

First, moles of urea (molar mass = 60 g/mol) are calculated as follows.

Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{40 g}{60 g/mol}\\= 0.67 mol

According to the mole concept, 1 mole of every substance contains 6.022 \times 10^{23} atoms.

So, the number of atoms present in 0.67 moles are as follows.

0.67 mol \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} atoms/mol\\= 4.035 \times 10^{23} atoms

In a molecule of urea there are 4 hydrogen atoms. Hence, number of hydrogen atoms present in 40 g of urea is as follows.

4 \times 4.035 \times 10^{23} atoms\\= 16.14 \times 10^{23} atoms

Thus, we can conclude that there are 16.14 \times 10^{23} atoms of hydrogen are present in 40g of urea, (NH_{2})_{2}CO.
