All atoms consist of a nucleus with protons and neutrons that is surrounded by a sea of electrons. If Uranium-235 is bombarded with a neutron then the atom's atomic number will remain the same but its mass will increase by 1 unit. Thus, it will temporarily become Uranium-236.

kati45 [8]
<span>First, obtain an ample amount of water, two clean containers, a stirring rod and a porous material for filtering. Next, place the water in the first container and heat the water until it boils. Then add the crude sugar to the boiling water and remove the mixture from heat. While still hot, pour the mixture through the filter into the second container, to remove sediments. Allow the filtered mixture to cool, and sugar crystals will form in the container. The recrystallization will occur more quickly if you add a seeding agent, like a small amount of refined sugar, to the cool mixture, but it is not necessary.</span>

When a solution of NaI reacts with a solution of AgNO3, what is the net ionic equation?
Leni [432]

Answer:

Ag⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq) → AgI(s)

Explanation:

Net ionic equation is a way to write a chemical equation in which you are listing only the species that are participating in the reaction.

In the reaction:

AgNO₃(aq) + NaI(aq) → AgI(s) + NaNO₃(aq).

The ionic equation is:

Ag⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq) → AgI(s) + Na⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq).

Now, listing only the species that are participating in the reaction:

<h3>Ag⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq) → AgI(s)</h3>

What is another name for the molecular orbital theory of bonding in metals? band theory ionic bond theory covalent bond theory e
mote1985 [20]

Band theory

The atomic orbitals of metals combine to form <em>molecular orbitals</em>. The molecular orbitals are so close in energy that they form a <em>band</em> of energies.

<em>Ionic bond theory</em> is incorrect because there are no ions in metals.

<em>Covalent bond theory</em> is incorrect because there are no covalent bonds in metals.

<em>Electron bond theory</em> is incorrect because there is no theory with that name (but there is a <em>valence bond theory</em>).

a student balanced the chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium with oxygen by writing Mg + O2 ----&gt; MgO2. What is wro
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnesium when it oxidizes has a valence of 2.

Oxygen, when it mixes with something, has a valence of - 2

So Mg and O2 will form something, but what? The answer is MgO

Mg + O2 ===> MgO

To balance this equation, you need 2 Magnesiums on the right and 2 Oxygens also on the right. The left will need a  two Magnesiums.

The balanced equation will be

2Mg + O2 ====> 2MgO
