It is b i think bc it looks like it would be it and my tudor helped me
Answer:
5 electrons
Explanation:
When an atom loses are gain the electrons ions are formed.
There are two types of ions.
Anion
Cation
1 = Anion
It is formed when an atom gain the electrons. when atom gain electron negative charge is created on atom. For example.
X + e⁻ → X⁻
2= Cation
It is formed when an atom loses the electrons. when atom lose electron positive charge is created on atom. For example.
X → X⁺ + e⁻
When an atom loses three electrons +3 charge is created. If this atom have 8 protons it means there were 8 electrons too. When it lost three electrons then remaining number of electrons are 5.
X → X³⁺ + 3e⁻
Answer:
It would have a charge of +2.
Explanation:
A proton has a charge of +1, an elctron has a charge of -1, and a neutron has a charge of 0. Ignore the neurons since they have a charge of 0. Since there are 20 protons and 18 electrons (20-18), the overall charge of the atom is +2.
The answer is: A) Na3PO4 + 3KOH → 3NaOH + K3PO4, because K retains the same charge throughout the reaction.
This chemical reaction is double displacement reaction - cations (K⁺ and Na⁺) and anions (PO₄³⁻⁻ and OH⁻) of the two reactants switch places and form two new compounds.
Na₃PO₄ is sodium phosphate.
KOH is potassium hydroxide.
NaOH is sodium hydroxide.
K₃PO₄ is potassium phosphate.
According to the mass conservation law, there are same number of atoms on both side of balanced chemical reaction.
Be= Beryllium= weight 9.01
Cl= Chlorine= weight 35.45
Since there are 2 Chlorine, you have to add Chlorine twice.
9.01 + 35.45 + 35.45= 79.91
Answer: 79.91
