<u>Answer:</u> When an atom is an ion, it must have a charge.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An ion is formed when a neutral atom looses or gains electrons.

  • When an atom looses electrons, it results in the formation of positive ion known as cation.  <u>For Example:</u> Sodium looses 1 electron to form Na^+ ion.
  • When an atom gains electrons, it results in the formation of negative ion known as anion. <u>For Example:</u> Chlorine gains 1 electron to form Cl^- ion.

Hence, when an atom is an ion, it must have a charge.

Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Energy can be neither created nor destroyed.

Water freezes at 0°C

If  a piece of platinum is placed in acid, it will not react.

<h3>What are the correct pairing of the given terms?</h3>

The correct pairing of the given terms are obtained from the given options as follows:

Atoms of elements contains three sub-atomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Energy is the ability to do work.

According to the law of conservation of energy, Energy can be neither created nor destroyed.

Water is a liquid which freezes at 0°C.

Therefore, Water freezes at 0°C.

Platinum is a metal which is less reactive than hydrogen, Hence, it cannot displace hydrogen from acids.

Hence, if a piece of platinum is placed in acid, it will not react.

In conclusion, the correct pairing gives the correct description of the properties of the given terms.

Suppose you have an Avogadro's number of nitrogen atoms. How many grams does this represent? Enter your answer to one decimal pl
shusha [124]

Answer:

2.3 x 10-23 g.

Explanation:

The mass of a single atom is the mass number, 14, is the mass in grams of one mole of carbon.

One mole of Nitrogen atom is 6.022 x 1023 atoms (Avogadro's number). This can then used to convert a nitogen atom to grams by the ratio:

mass of 1 atom / 1 atom = mass of a mole of atoms / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms.

mass of 1 atom = mass of a mole of atoms / 6.022 x 1023

mass of 1 N atom = 14 / 6.022 x 10^23 N atoms

mass of 1 N atom = 2.325 x 10^-23 g

The mass of a single Nitrogen atom is 2.325 x 10-23 g.
