A gold atom in its neutral state has how many electrons

Chemistry

To find the number of electrons in a neutral gold atom look at it's atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons in the element. For an atom to be neutral it needs the same number of electrons as protons, therefore the positive and negative charges will be balanced out. Gold's atomic number is 79 therefore it has 79 electrons.

irina [24]

Answer:

a)

K_2=1.3x10^{2}atm^{-1/2}

b)

PCl_5\rightarrow PCl_3+Cl_2

[PCl_5]=0.0375M

Explanation:

Hello!

a) In this case, since we can see that the second reaction is equal to the half of the first reaction, we can relate the equilibrium constants as shown below:

K_2=K_1^{1/2}

Thus, by plugging in the the equilibrium constant of the first reaction we obtain:

K_2=(1.6x10^4atm^{-1})^{1/2}\\\\K_2=1.3x10^{2}atm^{-1/2}

b) In this case, for the described reaction we can write:

PCl_5\rightarrow PCl_3+Cl_2

Thus, the corresponding equilibrium expression is:

K=\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{[PCl_5]}

In such a way, since we know the equilibrium constant and the concentrations of PCl3 and Cl2 at equilibrium, we can compute the concentration of PCl5 at equilibrium as follows:

[PCl_5]=\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{K}\\

[PCl_5]=\frac{\frac{0.20mol}{4L} *\frac{0.12mol}{4L} }{0.04}

[PCl_5]=0.0375M

Best regards!

Answer:

Methyl group

Explanation:

From the diagram shown, we can see that the family group CH3 is attached to the structure.

This is simply called a methyl group because it is derived from me than and written that way to show the direct bonding between carbon and the 3 hydrogen atoms.

Why diamond has a very high melting point than aluminium??
Bogdan [553]
Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms. A lot of energy is needed to separate the atoms in diamond. This is because covalent bonds are strong, and diamond contains very many covalent bonds. This makes diamond's melting point and boiling point very high.
