The atomic number (Z) uniquely identifies a chemical element. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.
The atomic number, Z, should not be confused with the mass number, A, which is the number of nucleons, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
In this video Kristine Born explains this two concepts in more detail.
Answer: F. Electron pair acceptor
Explanation:
A Lewis acid can be properly defined as any substance such as H+ (hygrogen ion) that can accept a pair of electron.
While a Lewis base is any substance such as (OH-) that can donate a pair of electron.
In the neutralization reaction between an acid ( H+ ) and a base (OH-). Hydrogen ion (H+ ) is the Lewis acid because it accepts an electron pair from (OH-).
Other examples of Lewis acid are; Mg2+, K+
Answer:
D, E and F
Explanation:
About tetrachloro cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed
- Color of the tetrachloro cobalt complexes is blue.
- They do not decompose on heating that means synthesis of tetra chloro is endothermic.
About hexa aqua cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed
- Color of the hexa aqua cobalt complexes is pink color.
- They decompose on heating and remain stable on cooling that means process of synthesis of hexa aqua cobalt complexes is exothermic.
Based on above, the correct statements are:
The correct is chloro cobalt complex is blue and aqua cobalt
complex is pink.
The chloro complex is favored by heating.
If the chloro complex is a product, then the reaction must be endothermic.
The correct options are D, E and F.
Malleability is the property due to which substances tend to hammered into thin sheets when pressure is applied. Malleability is observed in metal as the metal atoms are bound by metallic bonds. The layers of metal atoms can roll over each other without breaking the metal bond when pressure is applied. In the periodic table malleability decreases as the metallic nature decreases. Among the given metals Al is the most metallic element, followed by Zinc an Carbon is a non metal. Therefore, the order of increasing malleability will be C, Zn, Al
