How cations can become neutral atoms?​

Chemistry

Answer:

By gaining elections

Explanation:

Cations are formed when neutral atoms loss electrons and when they gain back the lost electrons the charges are neutralized.

Eg. Cu=Cu2+ + 2é

Cu2+ + 2é=Cu

A neutral atom contains the same number of electrons as protons and that means that the electric charge of the atom is neutral or otherwise known as zero. However, if a particular atom loses an electron, the atom becomes positively charged because there is more protons than electrons.
THIS IS CALLED A CATION.

A sports car and a fully loaded semi truck pull side by side at a red light. Using your knowledge of acceleration, predict which
Len [333]
According to Newtons second law of motion:

a =  \frac{F}{m}

This shows, acceleration and mass are inversely proportional. So, larger the mass, less will be the acceleration produced and vice versa.

In case of a sports car and a fully loaded truck, the mass of truck is a lot more than the sports car. As a result the sports car will accelerate faster when the traffic light turns green.

What is the difference between “mass number” and “atomic mass”? which is found on the periodic table?
Greeley [361]

<span>Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom, and it tells us about the mass of the atom in amu, or atomic mass units. Atomic mass is the average mass of all the isotopes of a certain type.</span>

A gas with a volume of 250 mL at a temperature of 293K is heated to 324K. What is the new volume of the gas?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

The new volume of the gas is 276.45 mL.

Explanation:

Charles's law indicates that for a given sum of gas at constant pressure, as the temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases, and as the temperature decreases, the volume of the gas decreases.

Charles's law is a law that mathematically says that when the amount of gas and pressure are kept constant, the quotient that exists between the volume and the temperature will always have the same value:

\frac{V}{T} =k

Analyzing an initial state 1 and a final state 2, it is satisfied:

\frac{V1}{T1} =\frac{V2}{T2}

In this case:

  • V1= 250 mL
  • T1= 293 K
  • V2= ?
  • T2= 324 K

Replacing:

\frac{250 mL}{293 K} =\frac{V2}{324 K}

Solving:

V2=324 K*\frac{250 mL}{293 K}

V2= 276.45 mL

<em><u>The new volume of the gas is 276.45 mL.</u></em>
