Answer:
8 valence electrons
Explanation:
There are 4 valence electrons in carbon because it is in group 4A of the periodic table. There is 1 valence electron per hydrogen based on its position on the periodic table, but CH4 has 4 hydrogens in it. So 1 times 4 is 4. Add the 4 valence electrons from carbon with the 4 electrons from H4 to get 8.
Hey there!
Answer: Protons
The atom in a sample of an element must contain nuclei with the same number of protons. If the protons change in number, then the element will modify as well.
Thank you!
74.62 g of magnesium oxide is formed from 45.00 g magnesium so 74.62-45.00= 29.62 g of oxygen is consumed or in other words a new compound is formed in the burning of magnesium in oxygen with a heavier mass than the pure magnesium.
Answer:
A radical is a group of atoms of elements carrying a charge, e.g., chlorate [ClO3–]. Radicals or ions are formed by losing or gaining electrons. When an electron is gained the group of atoms acquire a negative charge and is called a negative radical or negative ion.
Answer:
Explanation:
In general, an increase in pressure (decrease in volume) favors the net reaction that decreases the total number of moles of gases, and a decrease in pressure (increase in volume) favors the net reaction that increases the total number of moles of gases.
Δn= b - a
Δn= moles of gaseous products - moles of gaseous reactants
Therefore, <u>after the increase in volume</u>:
- If Δn= −1 ⇒ there are more moles of gaseous reactants than gaseous products. The equilibrium will be shifted towards the products, that is, from left to right, and K>Q.
- If Δn= 0 ⇒ there is the same amount of gaseous moles, both in products and reactants. The system is at equilibrium and K=Q.
- Δn= +1 ⇒ there are more moles of gaseous products than gaseous reactants. The equilibrium will be shifted towards the reactants, that is, from right to left, and K<Q.
