Electrons are particles that have a negative charge. Therefore, an element in a neutral state will have the same number of protons and electrons.since the atomic number corresponds to the number of protons. atomic number of carbon is 6, so number of electron is also 6
To find the number of neutrons, you will need to subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.
13 - 6 = 7 neutrons
Phase is not determined by the number of molecules, as a substance with any number of molecules can be either solid, liquid, or gas.
Arrangement of molecules and molecular structure matter, since solids are closely packed together, gases are not, and liquids are in between. Intermolecular forces are also stronger for solids and liquids than they are for gases.
Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Atomic number of sodium is 11 and its electronic configuration is 
.
In order to gain stability, sodium loses one electron and hence it forms a positive ion 
.
Thus, we can conclude that when sodium combines with chlorine, it has a net charge of +1 because sodium loses a negative electron when forming chemical bonds.
Given:
Diprotic weak acid H2A:
Ka1 = 3.2 x 10^-6
Ka2 = 6.1 x 10^-9.
Concentration = 0.0650 m
Balanced chemical equation:
H2A ===> 2H+ + A2-
0.0650 0 0
-x 2x x
------------------------------
0.065 - x 2x x
ka1 = 3.2 x 10^-6 = [2x]^2 * [x] / (0.065 - x)
solve for x and determine the concentration at equilibrium.
