How many electrons are in polonium with a -3 charge?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elina [12.6K]3 years ago
6 0
Polonium has an atomic number of 84 meaning it has 84 protons. Usually, this means there would also be 84 electrons in a normal element. A -3 charge means that there are 3 more negative electrons that positive protons so the overall number of electrons would be 87.

A compound containing chromium, Cr; chlorine, Cl; and oxygen, O, is analyzed and found to be 33.6% chromium, 45.8% chlorine, and
Assoli18 [71]

Answer

The empirical formula is CrO₂Cl₂

Explanation:

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of an atom present in a compound.

The compound contain, Chromium=33.6%

                                         Chlorine=45.8%

                                          Oxygen=20.6%

And the molar mass of Chromium(Cr)=51.996 g mol.

                 Chlorine containing molar mass (Cl)= 35.45    g mol.

                 Oxygen containing molar mass (O)=15.999  g mol.

Step-1

 Then,we will get,

Cr=\frac{1}{51.996} \times33.6=0.64 mol

Cl= \frac{1}{35.45} \times45.8=1.29 mol.

O=\frac{1}{15.99} \times=1.28 mol.

Step-2

Divide the mole value with the smallest number of mole, we will get,

Cr= \frac{0.64}{0.64} =1

Cl= \frac{1.29}{0.64} =2

O= \frac{1.28}{0.64} =2

Then, the empirical formula of the compound is CrO₂Cl₂ (Chromyl chloride)

Which of the following corresponds to an alpha particle?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Atomic number=No. of protons=No. of electrons in ground state(unchanged atom)

Atomic number=13=No. of protons

Atomic mass=no. of protons+no. of neutrons=13+14=27

For isotope no. of proton=13(same atomic number but different mass number are isotopes)

no. of electrons=13

no. of neutrons=14+2=16

Explanation:

hope it's help you

Explain how the copper could be in the lake sample near the picnic area but not have been detected by this test.
Masja [62]

Answer:

May be the instrument is incorrect or may be error in it.

Explanation:

The copper have not been detected by this test because the test may be not for the detection of copper, may be it is used for identification of another minerals. If there is copper in the lake sample but can't be detected in the test so it means that the instrument which is used for detection is not the right one  or having error in that instrument. Every mineral has a specific type of instrument that detect its presence, if we use incorrect instrument for the mineral then we can't detect the presence of that specific mineral.

Which label belongs in the region marked X?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

A) involves changes in temperature

Explanation:

The figure is missing, but I assume that the region marked X represents the region in common between Gay-Lussac's law and Charle's Law.

Gay-Lussac's law states that:

"For an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically, it can be written as

p\propto T

where p is the pressure of the gas and T its absolute temperature.

Charle's Law states that:

"For an ideal gas kept at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically, it can be written as

V\propto T

where V is the volume of the gas and T its absolute temperature.

By looking at the two descriptions of the law, we see immediately that the property that they have in common is

A) involves changes in temperature

Since the temperature is NOT kept constant in the two laws.
