an atom has a charge of -3 in its orbitals which statement must be true in order for this atom to have no net charge

Chemistry

NISA [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The atom must lose its three extra electrons to make the atom over all neutral.

Explanation:

The three subatomic particles construct an atom electron, proton and neutron. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons.

If an atom have -3 charge it means three more electrons are added. In order to make the atom overall neutral three more electrons must be removed so that negative and positive charge becomes equal and cancel the effect of each other and make the atom neutral.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Proton and neutron:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Which of the following processes are endothermic? ice forming on a pond iodine crystals subliming water boiling gasoline burning
san4es73 [151]

The boiling of water and sublimation of iodine crystals are endothermic processes.

Answer: Option B & C

Explanation:

Endothermic process are the classifications of chemical reactions where the heat is absorbed by the system from the surroundings. As the matters can exists in three phases like solid, liquid and gases.

The endothermic process occurs by absorption of heat energy by the system. So according to the given options, the boiling of water and iodine crystal sublimation follows endothermic process. In the boiling of water occurs when the water molecules absorb heat from the surrounding and convert to gas phase.

Similarly, the sublimation of iodine crystals also require heat energy from the surrounding to break the bonds of the iodine crystals to sublimate to gas phase. Thus the boiling of water and sublimation of iodine crystals are the examples of endothermic processes.
