Answer:

The charge will be "-1".

Explanation:

In a neutral atom there are protons and neutrons in the nucleus and the same number of electrons (as of protons) in the outer shells.

As given that there are four protons and 5 electrons, it means the given atom is not neutral.

An atom may have lesser number of electrons than that of protons or it may have more number of electrons.

If an atom has less number of electrons, it will carry positive charge

If an atom has more number of electrons, it will carry negative charge.

So the total electric charge on the atom will be "-1"

Neutrons are uncharged
proton (+4) + electrons (-5)= -1

A sample of 0.53 g of carbon dioxide was obtained by heating 1.31 g of calcium carbonate. what is the percent yield for this rea
Masja [62]

CaCO3(s) ⟶ CaO(s)+CO2(s) 

<span>
moles CaCO3: 1.31 g/100 g/mole CaCO3= 0.0131 </span>

<span>
From stoichiometry, 1 mole of CO2 is formed per 1 mole CaCO3, therefore 0.0131 moles CO2 should also be formed. 
0.0131 moles CO2 x 44 g/mole CO2 = 0.576 g CO2 </span>

Therefore:<span>
<span>% Yield: 0.53/.576 x100= 92 percent yield</span></span>

Does the identity of gas matter when predicting its behavior why or why not?
just olya [345]

Answer: The gas phase is unique among the three states of matter in that there are some simple models we can use to predict the physical behavior of all gases—independent of their identities. We cannot do this for the solid and liquid states. ... Gas particles do not experience any force of attraction or repulsion with each other.
