The anion<span> is also </span>larger than<span> the </span>atom<span> because of </span>electron-electron repulsion<span>. As more </span>electrons are<span> added to the </span>outer shell<span>, and even to </span>higher<span> principle energy levels, the </span>repulsion<span> bewteen the negatively charged particles grows, pushing the </span>shells<span> farther from the nucleus.</span>

An isotope has 15 protons, 16 neutrons, and 15 electrons. What is the isotopic notation of the isotope
VikaD [51]

Answer:

^{31}_{15}P is the isotopic notation of the atom

Explanation:

The isotope notation is:

^a_bX

<em>Where a is the mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons</em>

<em>b is atomic number = Number of protons</em>

The atomic number define the nature of the atom, the element with atomic number = 15 is phosphorus, P:

^a_bP

a = 15 protons + 16 neutrons = 31

b = 15

^{31}_{15}P is the isotopic notation of the atom.

Question 4 (1 point)
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

In an endothermic reaction products are <u>HIGHER </u>than reactants in potential energy and <u>LESS </u>stable.

Explanation:

Energy is input into the reaction in an endothermic reaction. This means the products are of a higher energy level than the reactants. Therefore the reaction increases Gibb's free energy and reduces entropy. Remember in thermodynamic stability involves an increase in entropy and a decrease in Gibbs free energy. Therefore the products are less stable than the reactants. This is why endothermic reactions do not occur spontaneously like exothermic reactions.
