What happens when a nitrogen atom loses two electrons?

Chemistry

When any atom loses two charged particles, it becomes an ion, with a charge opposite of the particles it lost. Ions will attempt to join up with other ions in ionic bonds, held together by the opposite charges of the atoms.

Since losing and gaining has to do with the ions, we know the answer! It would become a ion, specifically a cation, and gain a positive charge because it lost 2 electrons.

The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of sodium(s) with water(l) to form sodium hydroxide(aq) and hydrogen(g
ra1l [238]

Answer:

1) When 6.97 grams of sodium(s) react with excess water(l), 56.0 kJ of energy are evolved.

2) When 10.4 grams of carbon monoxide(g) react with excess water(l), 1.04 kJ of energy are absorbed.

Explanation:

1) The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of sodium(s) with water(l) to form sodium hydroxide(aq) and hydrogen(g).

2 Na(s) + 2H₂O(l) ⇒ 2NaOH(aq) + H₂(g) ΔH = -369 kJ

The enthalpy of the reaction is negative, which means that 369 kJ of energy are evolved per 2 moles of sodium. The energy evolved for 6.97 g of Na (molar mass 22.98 g/mol) is:

6.97g.\frac{1mol}{22.98g} .\frac{-369kJ}{2mol} =-56.0kJ

2) The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of carbon monoxide(g) with water(l) to form carbon dioxide(g) and hydrogen(g).

CO(g) + H₂O(l) ⇒ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)  ΔH = 2.80 kJ

The enthalpy of the reaction is positive, which means that 2.80 kJ of energy are absorbed per mole of carbon monoxide. The energy evolved for 10.4 g of CO (molar mass 28.01 g/mol) is:

10.4g.\frac{1mol}{28.01g} .\frac{2.80kJ}{mol} =1.04kJ
