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 do models help scientists predict the polarity of molecules?
yuradex [85]

Answer:There are three main properties of chemical bonds that must be considered—namely, their strength, length, and polarity. The polarity of a bond is the distribution of electrical charge over the atoms joined by the bond. Specifically, it is found that, while bonds between identical atoms (as in H2) are electrically uniform in the sense that both hydrogen atoms are electrically neutral, bonds between atoms of different elements are electrically inequivalent. In hydrogen chloride, for example, the hydrogen atom is slightly positively charged whereas the chlorine atom is slightly negatively charged. The slight electrical charges on dissimilar atoms are called partial charges, and the presence of partial charges signifies the occurrence of a polar bond.

2.00 moles of an ideal gas was found to occupy a volume of 17.4L at a pressure of 3.00 atm and at a temperature of 45 C. Calulat
lidiya [134]

Answer:

0.082 atm L mol^{-1} K^{-1}

Explanation:

The pressure, the volume and the temperature of an ideal gas are related to each other by the equation of state:

pV=nRT

where

p is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume of the gas

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature

For the gas in this problem:

n = 2.00 mol is the number of moles

V = 17.4 L is the gas volume

p = 3.00 atm is the gas pressure

T=45C+273=318 K is the absolute temperature

Solving for R, we find the gas constant:

R=\frac{pV}{nT}=\frac{(3.00)(17.4)}{(2.00)(318)}=0.082 atm L mol^{-1} K^{-1}
