Solve if an element has a charge of 2+, how many more protons does it have than electrons? protons

Chemistry
1 answer:
Effectus [21]3 years ago
8 0
To determine how many protons are present, simply know or use the following equation

X = number of protons
Y = number of electrons
Z = formal charge of the element

X - Y = Z = 0 for a neutral atom

X - Y = 2

Then to solve for x

X = Y + 2.

This means that we would need an additional 2 more protons than electrons.

Enter the atomic symbol, including mass number and atomic number, for iodine-130.
WINSTONCH [101]

<u>Answer:</u> The atomic symbol of the given element is _{53}^{130}\textrm{I}

<u>Explanation:</u>

The general isotopic representation of an element is given as:  _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents the atomic number of the element

A represents the mass number of the element

X represents the symbol of an element

For the given isotope: 130-iodine

Mass number = 130

Atomic number = 53

Hence, the atomic symbol of the given element is _{53}^{130}\textrm{I}

Use the pop-up menus to label the following statements as either True of False.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

1 True

2. True

3. True

4. True

5. False

Explanation:

1. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl)  is a weak acid that forms when chlorine dissolves in water, and is partially dissociated, forming hypochlorite. HOCl is considered a strong oxidizing agent responsible for the killing action of germs in chlorine solutions.

2. Acetic acid is also known as ethanoic acid. It has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell, and is generally considered a weak acid. in a concentrated form, acetic acid can be corrosive.

3/4 . Methylene chloride is an organochloride compound with the formula CH2Cl2. It is  a colorless, volatile liquid with a moderately sweet aroma is widely used as a solvent. It is normally stable, non-flammable and non-explosive when mixed with air at temperatures below 100 °C, but its vapor is flammable only when present in relatively high concentrations of about 14% to 22% in air. Research shows that it is very much possibly carcinogenic, and it has been linked to cancer of the lungs, liver, pancreas, breast cancer and salivary gland cancer in laboratory animals.

5. Laboratory and medical waste are not to be disposed in the trash with regular wastes, as they are potentially toxic. Special disposal methods and agencies exists to take away such wastes.

Explain why Cl2 can form two different Na bonds
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer: There is a single covalent bond in a chlorine molecule.

Explanation: The chlorine molecule is represented as Cl−Cl, i.e. C

l2. Between the chlorine atoms, 2 electrons overlap to form a region of high electron density to which the positively charged chlorine nuclei are attracted, such that internuclear repulsion is negated and a net attractive force results. Because the bonding electrons are shared between the nuclei, we conceive that each atom has 8 valence electrons.

Of course, on reaction with sodium, the sodium reduces the chlorine molecule to give 2×Cl−. The resultant bond between Na+ and Cl−is ionic and a non-molecular substance results.

The forensic technician at a crime scene has just prepared a luminol stock solution by adding 16.0 g of luminol into a total vol
nikitadnepr [17]

 The  molarity  of  the stock solution of  luminol  is 1.2 M


 <u><em>calculation</em></u>

step 1:  find the moles  of  luminol  using   (moles=  mass/molar mass)  formula


molar  mass  of Luminol= 177 g/mol

moles  is therefore= 16.0 g/ 177  g/mol=0.0904 moles


Step  2:  find the molarity  using (molarity= moles/volume in liters)  formula

     convert  Ml  into liters =  75.0/1000= 0.075 L

  molarity is therefore= 0.0904 moles/ 0.075 L= 1.2M
