<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The number of neutrons is </u><u>48</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

As we know that the atomic number is the number of protons. If we subtract the atomic number from the mass number, we can actually find the number of neutrons.

So

Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number

Neutrons = 70 - 22 = 48

Which of the following processes would you predict to have an increase in entropy?
Anna [14]
C. Melting ice. 
It is C because melting ice is a change of state from solid to liquid which requires an addition of energy(or entropy) into the system.
Condensation of water occurs from a gas to a liquid state, which takes energy out of the system(water) and gives it to the surroundings(air around it). Freezing water is the same as condensation except for the state change. Deposition is simply gas to a solid instantaneously so you can again see it as with the other two examples.

Hydrofluoric acid is what type of acid?
posledela

Hydrofluoric acid is a solution of hydrogen fluoride (HF) in water. Solutions of HF are colourless, acidic and highly corrosive. It is used to make most fluorine-containing compounds; examples include the commonly used pharmaceutical antidepressant medication fluoxetine (Prozac) and the material PTFE (Teflon).

The main reason that cs2 has a higher boiling point than co2 is that cs2
OlgaM077 [116]

Explanation:

Inspite of having similar intermolecular forces, CS2 has a higher boiling point than CO2, since it has a greater molar mass. The potential energy of molecules reduces until a certain level as they get closer to each other. Although the polarity of both CO2 and CS2 are cancelled because of their linear structure.

How many unpaired electrons are present in a ground-state atom from each of the following groups?
musickatia [10]

For 7A(17) :

Electronic configuration ns^2 np^5

So, there are 5 unpaired electrons present in group 7A(17).

<h3>What are Unpaired Electrons?</h3>
  • An unpaired electron is an electron that doesn't form part of an electron pair when it occupies an atom's orbital in chemistry.
  • Each of an atom's three atomic orbitals, designated by the quantum numbers n, l, and m, has the capacity to hold a pair of two electrons with opposing spins.
  • Unpaired electrons are extremely uncommon in chemistry because an object carrying an unpaired electron is typically quite reactive. This is because the production of electron pairs, whether in the form of a chemical bond or as a lone pair, is frequently energetically advantageous.
  • They play a crucial role in describing reaction pathways even though they normally only appear momentarily during a reaction on a thing called a radical in organic chemistry.
