What is the correct symbol of an ion containing 17 protons,20 neutrons and 18 electrons

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nataliya [291]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The symbol of the ion is A^-

Explanation:

Let A be the symbol of the element.

Proton = 17

Electron = 18

Neutron = 20

Since the element has more electrons than protons, it means it has gain electrons.

From the question given,

The difference between the electron and proton = 18 — 17 = 1

So, the element has gain 1 electron.

Therefore the symbol of the ion is A^-

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Glycogen. Cellulose. Amylose. Cellulose. Amylopetin and Glycogen. Amylopetin and Cellulose.

Explanation:

Glycogen is the form that glucose is stored in human body.

Cellulose is the structural part of plant cell walls and human cannot digest it.

Amylose is the polysaccharide linked mainly by the the bonds of \alpha 1,4 glycosidic.

Cellulose is an unbranched polysaccharide linked mainly by the bonds of  \beta 1,4 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Glycogen are branched polysaccharides linked by the bonds of \alpha 1,4 glycosidic and \alpha 1,6 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Cellulose are mainly stored in plants.

How do you work out question 1a?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

-125 kJ

Explanation:

You calculate the energy required to break all the bonds in the reactants. Then you subtract the energy to break all the bonds in the products.

                     H₂C=CH₂   +    H₂ ⟶    H₃C-CH₃

Bonds:       4C-H + 1C=C     1H-H     6C-H + 1C-C

D/kJ·mol⁻¹:  413       612        436       413      347

The formula relating ΔHrxn and bond dissociation energies (D) is

ΔHrxn = Σ(Dreactants) – Σ(Dproducts)

(Note: This is an exception to the rule. All other thermochemical reactions are “products – reactants”. With bond energies, it’s “reactants – products”. The reason comes from the way we define bond energies.)

<em>For the reactant</em>s:

Σ(Dreactants) = 4 × 413 + 1 × 612 + 1 × 436 = 2700 kJ

<em>For the products:</em>

Σ(Dproducts) = 6 × 413 + 1 × 347 = 2825 kJ

<em>For the system</em> :

ΔHrxn = 2700 - 2825 = -125 kJ
