The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.
Explanation:
Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).
So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons.
You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.
You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.
Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.
Answer: This is hard to do accurately, but here is my best assessment.
Explanation:
Experiment: B - describes how the experiment was done
Conclusion: A - The data support the prevailing hypothesis
Research: D - This is what we analyzed
Analysis: C - We compared the data
Answer:
B.
Converted to renewable ones
exhausted or depleted
Answer:
actually pure water doesnt conduct electricity, any salts or impurities dissolved in water enable it to conduct electricity, When salts are dissolved in water, they separate into different electrically charged atoms called ions. Sodium chloride (NaCl), breaks up into positive Na ions and negative Cl ions.
Answer:
0.453 moles
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is:
2Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ==> 2Fe2O3
From the equation, mass of O2 involved = 16 x 2 x 3 = 96g
mass of Fe2O3 involved = [(2x26) + 3 x 16] x 2
= 100g
Therefore 96g of O2 produced 100g of Fe2O3
32.2g of O2 Will produce 100x32.2/96
= 33.54g of Fe2O3
Converting it to mole using number of mole = mass/molar mass
but molar mass of Fe2O3 = 26 + (16 X 3)
= 74g/mole
Therefore number of mole of 33.54g of Fe2O3 = 33.54/74
= 0.453 moles
