The atomic number of sodium is 11. Sodium is a metal and it has the electronic configuration: 2, 8,1. This configuration implies that, the electrons in an atom of sodium are distributed into three different shells and the outermost shell has one electron in it. If sodium decide to give away the electron on its outermost shell, it will have 10 electrons left and those electrons will be distributed in only the first two shells and then it will be described as an ion. The third shell will not exist again because the electron there has been given away. Thus, the sodium ion is going to have a smaller atomic radius because its size has been reduced. This implies that the sodium ion will have a smaller radius than the sodium atom.

Its atomic radius increases because there is less electron shielding after the sodium loses one e-.  Sodium is a nonmetal which means it forms an anion. Anions always increase from their original atomic radius

Virty [35]
Explain whether this is a chemical or physical change, and why. does it involve elements, compounds, mixtures, or pure substances?

If the process involves a chemical reaction then surely it is a chemical change where new bonds are being formed from the collision of the reactants.

Describe how many atoms are involved before and after. what do you notice about the number of atoms?

From the balanced chemical reaction, we see that we need 1 mol of N2 gas and 3 mol of H2 in order to form 2 mol of NH3.

How many joules of heat is lost when a 64 g piece of copper cools from 375 oC to 26 oC? The specific heat of copper is 0.38 J/go
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: 8500 J lost or -8500 J

Explanation:

q=cmt

t=375-26

t=349

q=0.38(64)(349)

q=8487.68 J

Answer must have 2 sig figs, which means it rounds to 8500 J.

Tisa makes a diagram to organize her notes about charging objects.
Amanda [17]
The answer is Electrons move between objects. The reason this is known is that the acts of friction and conduction (from the little picture he could not put in) involves contact to be known as friction and conduction. Without contact the electrons could not move between objects. I also got this question right on the test. That's how I know this is right. I hope this helps. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The hydrostatic pressure is defined as the pressure that is exerted by a fluid at equilibrium at a given point within the fluid, due to the force of gravity, the formula is:

P = ρgh + P₀

Where:

ρ is density (1020kg/m³)

g is gravity (9,8m/s²)

h is depth (150m)

P₀ is the atmspheric pressure (101325 Pa)

Replacing, P = 1'600'725 Pa

I hope it helps!
