What happens to an Atom when it gains two electrons

1 answer:

4 0

When an atom gains two electrons, it becomes increasingly negative. In a neutral atom, there is the same number of protons and electrons to keep the atom charge free. By adding two electrons, you have thrown off the balance, making the atom negative

Calculate the molecular (formula) mass of each compound: (a) iron(ll) acetate tetrahydrate; (b) sulfur tetrachloride; (c) potass

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

a) Iron(ll) acetate tetrahydrate: 245,68 g/mol

b) Sulfur tetrachloride: 173,87 g/mol

c) Potassium ermanganate 158,034 g/mol

Explanation:

To solve this kind of exercises you must look for the number of atoms in each molecule first, then look on the periodic table the atom weight and the multiply the atom weight times the quantity of each atom. For instance:

The molecule of Iron(II) acetate itetrahydrate is (CH3COO)2Fe•4H2O, it means that you have:

2 atoms of carbon times the atomic weight of C (12.00g/mol)= 24g

14 atoms of Hidrogen times the atomic weight of H (1,00g/mol)= 14g

6 atoms of Oxigen times the atomic weight of O (16,0g/mol)= 96

2 atoms of Iron times the atomic weight of Fe (55,84g/mol)= 111,68g

At last, you only have to add the results: 24+14+96+11,68= 245,68g/mol. This example was for the first molecule.

See you,

Identify the single displacement reaction. 2H 2 + O 2 ⟶ 2H 2O Al 2S 3 ⟶ 2Al + 3S Cl 2 + 2KBr ⟶ 2KCl + Br 2 C 4H 12 + 7O 2 ⟶ 6H 2

Answer: $Cl_2+2KBr\rightarrow 2KCl+Br_2$

Explanation:

A single displacement reaction is one in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its salt solution. Thus one element should be different from another element.

$Cl_2+2KBr\rightarrow 2KCl+Br_2$

Synthesis reaction is defined as the reaction where substances combine in their elemental state to form a single compound. $2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O$

Decomposition reaction is defined as the reaction where a single substance breaks down into two or more simpler substances.

$Al_2S_3\rightarrow 2Al+3S$

Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons burn in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water along with heat.

$C_4H_{12}+7O_2\rightarrow 6H_2O+4CO_2$
