<span>Answer: O₃
</span><span />

<span>Explanation:
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
The term isoelectronic means same number of electrons.
</span><span />

<span>Then you need to count the number of electrons in the given species NO₂⁻.
</span><span />

<span>You have to count the number of electrons of N (nitrogen) atoms, the number of electrons of two O (oxygen) atoms, and the adjust for the negative charge of the ions.


</span><span>The atomic number of N is 7, meaning that each atom has 7 protons and 7 electrons.</span>
<span /><span>
The atomic number of O is 8, meaning that each atom has 8 protons and 8 electrons.
</span><span />

<span>The negative charge of the ion means that it has one extra electron, which is the responsible for the negative charge.
</span><span />

<span>Therefore the total number of electrons of the ion NO₂⁻ is 7 + 2 (8) + 1 = 24.
</span><span />

<span>Note that that 24 = 3 x 8, so 24 is the number of electrons in 3 atoms of oxygen.
</span><span />

<span>The moleucle O₃ is an allotrope of the oxygen. (an allotrope is a a form of an element with different structure and physical properties in the same physical state).
</span><span />

<span>Therefore, the allotrope of oxygen isoelectronic with NO₂⁻ is O₃ (ozone)</span>

17. Write the molecular balanced equation for the recovering of copper metal. 18. Write the complete ionic balanced equation for
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

17. it goes from solid copper to aqueous copper:

Cu(s) --> Cu₂(aq) + 2e⁻

18. complete ionic:

Cu(s) --> Cu₂(aq) + 2e⁻

19. net ionic, must include only reacting species, so

Cu(s) --> Cu₂(aq) + 2e⁻

20. this type of reaction is dissolution reaction(redox reaction)

copper reduced from Cu²⁺ to Cu.

When an atom loses an electron, we say that the atoms was ____________________.
arlik [135]

Answer:

However, if something happens to make an atom lose or gain an electron then the atom will no longer be neutral.

Explanation:

A charged atom is called an ion. When an atom loses electron(s) it will lose some of its negative charge and so becomes positively charged. A positive ion is formed where an atom has more protons than electrons.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

0.00580=5.8*10^-3

3000=3.0*10^3

0.000908=9.08*10^-4

What is the kinetic energy of a 1-kilogram ball is thrown into the air with ab ititial velocity of 30m/s?
mariarad [96]
KE=1/2*mass*velocity^2
So u do 1/2 * 1 * 30^2
1/2 * 1 * 900
= 450kgm/s

P.s. I'm not sure if I would have to convert kg to g.
Anyways hope this helped

Which statements are true regarding redox reactions? (Note that in redox reactions, the molecule that "causes" another to gain o
Dvinal [7]

Answer:A, C, D, E, F

Explanation:

A. True: Oxidizing agents are electron acceptors. They accept electrons and the get reduced. This means their oxidation number reduces

B. False: Reducing agents do not accept H+ ions. Reducing agents remove oxygen from another substance or give hydrogen to it.

C. True: oxidizing agents oxidizes other molecules but they accept electrons and get reduced themselves. If a molecule accepts electrons it has been reduced.

D True: Redox reactions MAY and may not involve the transfer of hydrogen ions depending on the reactants (H+). But redox in terms of acid and base means the donating and receiving of protons(H+)

E. True: A molecule that has gained H atoms is said to be reduced. Oxidizing agents are always the proton acceptor.

F. True: Oxidizing agents May and may not accept H+. In terms of acid and base oxidizing agents accept protons(H+)
