What happens when you change the number of electrons in an atom
aalyn [17]
<h2>Answer: It becomes an Ion </h2>

When an atom has gained or lost electrons (negative charge), it becomes an ion.

In this sense:

<h2>Ions are atoms that have <u>gained or lost</u> electrons in their electronic cortex. </h2><h2> </h2>

If a neutral atom <u>loses electrons</u>, it remains with an excess of positive charge and transforms into a positive ion or <u>cation</u>, whereas if a neutral atom <u>gains electrons</u>, it acquires an excess of negative charge and transforms into a negative ion or <u>anion</u>.

It is then how ions form bonds with other atoms differently depending on the number of electrons they have.

Pikes Peak near Denver, Colorado, has an elevation of 14,110 ft. Calculate the pressure at this elevation using three different
kramer

Answer:

a) P = 1240 lb/ft^2

b) P = 1040 lb/ft^2

c) P = 1270 lb/ft^2

Explanation:

Given:

- P_a = 2216.2 lb/ft^2

- β = 0.00357 R/ft

- g = 32.174 ft/s^2

- T_a = 518.7 R

- R = 1716 ft-lb / slug-R

- γ = 0.07647 lb/ft^3

- h = 14,110 ft

Find:

(a) Determine the pressure at this elevation using the standard atmosphere equation.

(b) Determine the pressure assuming the air has a constant specific weight of 0.07647 lb/ft3.

(c) Determine the pressure if the air is assumed to have a constant temperature of 59 oF.

Solution:

- The standard atmospheric equation is expressed as:

                           P = P_a* ( 1 - βh/T_a)^(g / R*β)

                          (g / R*β) = 32.174 / 1716*0.0035 = 5.252

                            P = 2116.2*(1 - 0.0035*14,110/518.7)^5.252

                            P = 1240 lb/ft^2

- The air density method which is expressed as:

                            P = P_a - γ*h

                            P = 2116.2 - 0.07647*14,110

                            P = 1040 lb/ft^2

- Using constant temperature ideal gas approximation:

                            P = P_a* e^ ( -g*h / R*T_a )

                            P = 2116.2* e^ ( -32.174*14110 / 1716*518.7 )

                            P = 1270 lb/ft^2

While standing on a balcony a child drops a penny. The penny lands on the ground floor 1.5 s later. How fast was the penny trave
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

14.7 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height = 11.025 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

We, can obtain the initial velocity of the penny as follow:

H = ½(v + u) t

11.025 = ½ (0 + u) × 1.5

11.025 = ½ × u × 1.5

11.025 = u × 0.75

Divide both side by 0.75

u = 11.025/0.75

u = 14.7 m/s

Therefore, the penny was travelling at 14.7 m/s before hitting the ground.
