An electron is a particle with a _____.

Chemistry

Answer: An electron is a particle with a negative charge, found outside the nucleus.

Explanation: In an atom, there is a nucleus in the center that has protons and neutrons. Mostly the mass of an atom is the sum of masses of protons and neutrons.  Protons are positively charged ions and neutrons are neutral.

Electrons are present around the nucleus(outside the nucleus) in different energy shells. An electron has negative charge and gain or loss of electrons is the cause of chemical reactions.

Number of protons equals to the atomic number of an atom. Number of electrons is also same to the number of protons for a neutral atom where as the difference of mass number and protons is the number of neutrons.

Predict the pressure that would be observed if the container was at a temperature of 1,135 K.
denis-greek [22]

This problem is asking to predict the pressure in the container at a temperature of 1,135 K with no apparent background; however, in similar problems we can be given a graph having the pressure on the y-axis and the temperature on the x-axis and a trendline such as on the attached file, which leads to a pressure of 21.2 atm by using the given equation and considering the following:

<h3>Graph analysis.</h3>

In chemistry, experiments can be studied, modelled and quantified by using graphs in which we have both a dependent and independent variable; the former on the y-axis and the latter on the x-axis.

In addition, when data is recorded and graphed, one can use different computational tools to obtain a trendline and thus, attempt to find either the dependent or independent value depending on the requirement.

In this case, since the provided trendline by the graph and the program it was put in is y = 0.017x+1.940, we understand y stands for pressure and x for temperature so that we can extrapolate this equation even beyond the plotted points, which is this case.

In such a way, we can plug in the given temperature to obtain the required pressure as shown below:

y = 0.017 ( 1,135 ) + 1.940

y = 21.2

Answer that is in atm according to the units on the y-axis:

In an experiment, hydrochloric acid reacted with different volumes of sodium thiosulfate in water. A yellow precipitate was form
juin [17]

Answer:

The time decreases steadily

Explanation:

We know that the rate of chemical reaction is defined as how fast or slow a chemical reaction proceeds. Hence a chemical reaction is said to proceed at a faster rate if it takes a lesser time for the reaction to get to completion.

There are certain factors that affects the rate of reaction, prominent among them is the concentration of reactants. Concentration simply means the amount of substance in a system.

Taking a look at the table given in the question, we will realize that the volume of HCl remained constant, the volume of thiosulphate increased steadily while the volume of water decreased steadily. Remember that concentration increases when less water is added to the system. This implies that the reactant concentration increases steadily. Hence, according to the collision theory, particles collide more frequently and the rate of reaction increases.

As the rate of reaction increases, it now takes a lesser time for the reaction to get to completion (indicated by the disappearance of the cross). Hence as we move down the table, it takes lesser and lesser time for the cross to disappear. This means that the column for time will decrease steadily.

Explain why an atom with 7 valence electrons and 2 energy levels has a high electronegativity and ionization energy.
boyakko [2]

Explanation:

This atom is on the almost extreme right of the 2nd period of the periodic table (except for the stable element on the extreme right). This means it has the highest mass number of the unstable elements of the period. It thus attracts its electron clouds more strongly that the elements to the left of the period . This means it can gain an atom easily ( this is what is called electronegativity – tendency to attract an electron) than is can lose an electron. In addition, it only needs to acquire one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration (8) in its valence shell.

Due to these, it is hard for the atoms to lose an electron which is why it has a high ionization energy- the energy required to lose an electron.
