What happens to the composition of an atom to cause it to become positively or negatively charged?

Chemistry

cupoosta [38]3 years ago

<span>The addition and subtraction of negatively charged electrons can easily change an atom’s charge, because they perpetually spin in valence shells outside the nucleus. It is easier for a neighboring atom to share or steal an electron rather than a positively charged proton, which is found in the nucleus. It requires a strong energy input to split a proton free from other protons and neutrons. thus, the atoms lose or gain electrons from neighboring ones and become what is known as "ions". Hope it helped!</span>

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

λ = 1.1×10⁸ m

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency of wave = 2.7 Hz

Wavelength of wave = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength

Speed of wave = 3×10⁸ m/s

now we will put the values in formula.

3×10⁸ m/s = 2.7 s⁻¹ × λ

λ = 3×10⁸ m/s /2.7 s⁻¹

λ = 1.1×10⁸ m

Classify each of the following particulate level illustrations as a representation of either a pure substance, a homogeneous mix
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The classification and illustrations are attached in the drawing.

Explanation:

It is possible to identify the pure substance observing the figure, since it is the only one that has 2 joined atoms (purple and blue) which forms a single compound.

On the other hand, the homogeneous mixture is identified by noting that its atoms are more united with respect to the heterogeneous mixture, highlighting that in homogenous mixtures the atoms, elements or substances are not visible to the naked eye and are in a single phase, instead in the heterogeneous mixture if they can be differentiated.
