Explanation:

Adding a neutron will not affect the charge. The atom remains neutrally charged.

Since the charge of a neutron is neutral, or 0, the charge is not affected. Protons have a positive charge, whereas electrons have a negative charge. Since there are an equal number of protons and electrons, they cancel out.

Adding a neutron also increases the mass by 1. The mass of a neutron is 1 amu. The atomic mass is calculated by protons + neutrons.

Originally, the mass is 7 (because 3+4). The mass would now be 8 (because 3+5).

How many moles of AgCl2 are in 5.78x1024 molecules of AgCl2?

Zolol [24]

Answer:

9.6 mol AgCl2

Explanation:

You have to use Avogadro's number: 6.023 x 10^23

5.78 x 10^24 molecules (1 mol AgCl2/ 6.023 x 10^23 molecules) =9.6 mol AgCl2

Define Triple point of water?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>TRIPLE POINT:</h2>

Triple point is that temperature, at which the substance is found in all three states i.e. solid, liquid and gas. Every substance has different triple point, because Triple point is just above the freezing point and each substance has different freezing and boiling point.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>WATER:</h2>

Water has a Melting point or Freezing Point (MP or FP) of $0^0$ C or 273K and Boiling point (BP) $100^{0}$ C or 373 K. Since the triple point is just above the MP or FP thus Triple Point of water is $0.01^{0}$ C or 273.16K.
