Chemical properties of elements are primarily determined by the electrons but not by neutrons. Therefore, the isotopes of the same element have similar chemical behavior. (a) The atomic number is 17, so there are 17 protons and 17 electrons. The mass number is 35, so there are 18 (=35-17) neutrons. Hope this helps. :)
B. positive because y increases as x does. It it were negative y would decrease as x increases and it would be 0 if y stayed the same as x increases.
10H₂ + 5O₂ → 10H₂O
Explanation:
This problem deals with balancing of chemical equations. In balancing chemical equations, the law of conservation of mass must be followed. This states that:
"In a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another".
This meaning of this is that; the number of atoms on each side of the expression must be the same.
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
let us check is the equation above is balanced;
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Elements reactant product
H 4 4
O 2 2
We can see vividly that the equation is balanced;
Now; if we have 5 oxygen gas, we multiply the equation through by 5:
5 x ( 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O )
⇒ 10H₂ + 5O₂ → 10H₂O
Elements reactant product
H 20 20
O 10 10

It is very important<span> to know the shape of a molecule if one is to understand its reactions. It is also desirable to have a simple method to predict the geometries of compounds. For main group compounds, the </span>VSEPR<span> method is such a predictive tool and unsurpassed as a handy predictive method.</span>
