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

1 answer:

6 0

<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>

Chloroform has a density of 1.483g/ml. A sample of chloroform has a volume of 1.93 liters. How many kilograms does it weight?

ollegr [7]

Weight of Chloroform : = 2.862 kg

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Density 1.483 g/ml

Volume = 1.93 L

Required

Weight of Chloroform

Solution

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

Density formula:

$\large {\boxed {\bold {\rho ~ = ~ \frac {m} {V}}}}$

ρ = density

m = mass

v = volume

Convert density to kg/L :

=1.483g/ml = 1.483 kg/L

So the weight(mass) :

= ρ x V

= 1.483 kg/L x 1.93 L

= 2.862 kg

A car traveling at a speed of 30.0 m/s encounters an emergency and comes to a complete stop in 7.5 seconds? What is the cars acc

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The acceleration is: $4m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

$u = 30.0m/s$ --- The initial velocity

$t = 7.5s$ --- time

$v = 0m/s$ -- The final velocity

Required

Determine the acceleration

To do this, we make use of the first equation of motion

$v = u - at$

We used negative because the car was coming to stop.

This gives:

$0 = 30 - 7.5 * a$

$0 = 30 - 7.5a$

Collect like terms

$7.5a = 30$

Solve for a

$a = \frac{30}{7.5}$

$a = 4m/s^2$

A serving of Cheez-Its releases 1.30 x 10^4 kcal (1 kcal = 4.18 kJ) when digested by your body. If this same amount of energy we

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The final temperature is:- 7428571463.57 °C

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of heat is shown below as:-

$Q=m\times C\times \Delta T$

Where,

$Q$ is the heat absorbed/released

m is the mass

C is the specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is the temperature change

Thus, given that:-

Mass of water = 1.75 mg = 0.00175 g ( 1 g = 0.001 mg)

Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g°C

Initial temperature = 35 °C

Final temperature = x °C

$\Delta T=(x-35)\ ^0C/tex]
Q = [tex]1.3\times 10^4$ kcal

Also, 1 kcal = 4.18 kJ = $4.18\times 10^3$ J

So, Q = $1.3\times 10^4\times 4.18\times 10^3$ J = 54340000 J

So,

$54340000=0.00175\times 4.18\times (x-35)$

$0.00175\times \:4.18\left(x-35\right)=54340000$

$x-35=\frac{54340000}{0.007315}$

$x=7428571463.57$

Thus, the final temperature is:- 7428571463.57 °C

The equations given in the problem introduction can be added together to give the following reaction: overall: N2O4→2NO2 However

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Reverse the $2 NO_2 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2$ reaction

Explanation:

Reactions:

$2 NO_2 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2$

$N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2$

Overall:

$N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO_2$

As can be seen, in the overall reaction we have $N_2O_4$ in the reactants like in the second reaction and $NO_2$ in the products. The $NO_2$ is in the first reaction but as a reactant so we need to reverse that reaction:

$2 NO + O_2 \longrightarrow 2 NO_2$

$N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2$

Combining:

$N_2O_4 + 2 NO + O_2\longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2 + 2 NO_2$

$N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO_2$
