30 Points! What is the difference between an atom and an ion

Chemistry

Atom is a neutral element found in nature without any charge. In other words, it has same number of Protons and electrons, whereas ion is a charged thing, either positive or negative. We can find their charge by:

Charge = Number of Protons - Number of Electrons

Hope this helps!

Atoms are neutral, they have a similar number of protons (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge)

Ions have either a positive or negative charge by adding or taking away electrons to change the charge.

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 100g of an iron from 25°C to
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

382.5J

Explanation:

<em>Use the formula:</em>

E = mcΔθ or Q = mcΔT

m = 100g

c = 0.45 J/g°C

ΔT or Δθ = 110 - 25 = 85°

<em>Sub in the values:</em>

E = 100 × 0.45 × 85

= 382.5J

An atom of oxygen has atomic of 8 and a mass number of 18. How many of each type of subatomic particle doe it contain?
Tju [1.3M]
An atom of Oxygen. Contains:

Protons = 8
Electrons = 8

Neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 18 - 8 = 10

Neutrons = 10.

Determine the rate law, including the values of the orders and rate law constant, for the following reaction using the experimen
olga55 [171]

Answer: Rate law=k[A]^1[B]^2, order with respect to A is 1, order with respect to B is 2 and total order is 3. Rate law constant is 3L^2mol^{-2}s^{-1}

Explanation: Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

Rate=k[A]^x[B]^y

k= rate constant

x = order with respect to A

y = order with respect to A

n = x+y = Total order

a) From trial 1: 1.2\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^x[0.20]^y    (1)

From trial 2: 4.8\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y    (2)

Dividing 2 by 1 :\frac{4.8\times 10^{-2}}{1.2\times 10^{-2}}=\frac{k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y}{k[0.10]^x[0.20]^y}

4=2^y,2^2=2^y therefore y=2.

b) From trial 2: 4.8\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y    (3)

From trial 3: 9.6\times 10^{-2}=k[0.20]^x[0.40]^y   (4)

Dividing 4 by 3:\frac{9.6\times 10^{-2}}{4.8\times 10^{-2}}=\frac{k[0.20]^x[0.40]^y}{k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y}

2=2^x,2=2^1, x=1

Thus rate law is Rate=k[A]^1[B]^2

Thus order with respect to A is 1 , order with respect to B is 2 and total order is 1+2=3.

c) For calculating k:

Using trial 1:  1.2\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^1[0.20]^2

k=3 L^2mol^{-2}s^{-1}.
