in which of the following is the symbol for the ion and the number of electrons it contains given correctly? *
gregori [183]

Answer:Number of electrons that are present in an atom is determined by the electronic configuration of that atom.

If an ion is carrying a positive charge, it means that the atom has lost electrons and if an ion is carrying a negative charge, it means that the atom has gained electrons.

For the given options:

Option A: The atomic number of hydrogen atom is 1 and the electronic configuration for  ion will be:  

Thus, this atom does not have any electrons.

Option B: The atomic number of bromine atom is 35 and the electronic configuration for  ion will be:  

Thus, this atom has 36 electrons.

Option C: The atomic number of aluminium atom is 13 and the electronic configuration for  ion will be:

A generic gas, x, is placed in a sealed glass jar and decomposes to form gaseous y and solid z. 2x(g)â½ââây(g)+z(s) how are thes
Elan Coil [88]
The chemical equation given is:

<span>2x(g) ⇄ y(g)+z(s)</span>

Answer: the higher the amount of x(g) the more the forward reacton will occur and the higher the amounts of  products y(g) and z(s) will be obtained at equilibrium.

Justification:

As Le Chatellier's priciple states, any change in a system in equilibrium will be compensated to restablish the equilibrium.

The higher the amount, and so the concentration, of X(g), the more the forward reaction will proceed to deal witht he high concentration of X(g), leading to an increase on the concentration of the products y(g) and z (s).

Choose the reaction that represents the combustion of C6H12O2.
Leona [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  letter D

Explanation:

In a combustion reaction, the reactants are always a molecule with Carbon that reacts with oxygen and the products are carbon dioxide and water.

According to the explanation, the only possible solution is:

a) C₆H₁₂O₂(l) ⇒ 6 C(s) + 6 H₂(g) + O₂(g)

b) Mg(s) + C₆H₁₂O₂(l) ⇒ MgC₆H₁₂O₂(aq)

c) 6 C(s) + 6 H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ C₆H₁₂O₂(l)

d) C₆H₁₂O₂(l) + 8 O₂(g) ⇒ 6 CO₂(g) + 6 H₂O(g)

e) None of the above represent the combustion of C₆H₁₂O₂.

The concentration of species in 500 mL of a 2.104 M solution of sodium sulfate is ________ M sodium ion and ________ M sulfate i
omeli [17]

Answer:

The concentration of species in 500 mL of a 2.104 M solution of sodium sulfate is 4.208 M sodium ion and 2.104 M sulfate ion.  (option E)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume = 500 mL = 0.500 L

The concentration sodium sulfate = 2.104 M

Step 2: The equation

Na2SO4 → 2Na+ + SO4^2-

For 1 mol Na2SO4 we have 2 moles sodium ion (Na+) and 1 mol sulfate ion (SO4^2-)

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of the ions

[Na+] = 2*2.104 M = 4.208 M

[SO4^2-] = 1*2.104 M = 2.104 M

The concentration of species in 500 mL of a 2.104 M solution of sodium sulfate is 4.208 M sodium ion and 2.104 M sulfate ion.  (option E)

What happens to an electron when it emits a photon
Flura [38]

Answer:

when electron emit the radiations it means it jumped to the lower energy level from higher energy level.

Explanation:

When electron jump into lower energy level from high energy level it loses the energy.

The process is called de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum.
