Oxygen has 8 plus-charged protons. The number of minus-charged electrons is

Chemistry

DiKsa [7]3 years ago
6 0

A single oxygen has atomic number 8 that means the nuclei of all oxygen atoms have eight protons. The number of minus-charged electron is two but the number of electrons is 10. <span>To gain a minus two-charge ion, it must have two more negative electrons than positive charged protons. With this, the ion has 10 electrons, which give it a -2 net charge. </span>

What happens when chlorine from<br> CFCs mixes with ozone?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Because they are extremely stable molecules, CFCs do not react easily with other chemicals in the lower atmosphere. ... Free chlorine atoms then react with ozone molecules, taking one oxygen atom to form chlorine monoxide and leaving an ordinary oxygen molecule.

What is the preasure in atmospheres of 20 mol of nitrogen gas in 36.2 L cylinder at 25 degrees C?
Savatey [412]

Answer:

P = 13.5 atm

Explanation:

Given that

No. of moles, n = 20 moles

Volume of nitrogen gas = 36.2 L

Temperature = 25°C = 298 K

We need to find the pressure of the gas. Using the ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

Where

R is gas constant, R=0.082057\ L-atm/K-mol

So,

P=\dfrac{nRT}{V}\\\\P=\dfrac{20\times 0.082057\times 298}{36.2 }\\\\P=13.5\ atm

so, the pressure of the gas is equal to 13.5 atm.

Lewis structure for 2O2
Mrrafil [7]

the big number describes the number ratio in a chemical equation

so for example,

2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O means

2 moles of hydrogen reacts with one mole of oxygen to form 2 moles of water

and as you know, the small (subscript) number determines the number of atoms of that element in one molecule of a compound

so I believe that drawing a normal lewis structure ( O=O ) should be correct
