Lead has an atomic number of 82. Which statement describes all neutral atoms and ions of lead?

IRINA_888 [86]

The neutral atom of lead must have 82 protons while ions can have b or less than 82.

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus of the element.

Also, for neutral atoms, the number of protons equals the number of electrons.

In ionic form, the number of protons/electrons of an atom may vary and be different from that of the neutral form.

Positive charges mean that the ion has less proton than its neutral version while negative charges mean that it has more electrons than its neutral version.

Thus, the neutral atom of lead will contain an equal number of protons as the electrons while its ionic form can have more or less than 82 protons.

How does the electron configuration of elements within the same group compare? (A.) They all have their valence electrons in the

lesya [120]

Answer:

B.They all have their valence electrons in the same type of subshell

Explanation:

The electron configurations of elements in the same group (column) of the periodic table have them in the same type of subshell.
But the subshells may be of different shells. Thus , the energies of them need not be the same.
For example , The Alkalai Metals are found in the first column of the periodic table Group IA. This set of elements all have valence electrons in only the ' $s$ ' orbital and because they are in the first column they all have $s^{1}$ configuration. i.e,

H $1s^1$
Li $1s^2 2s^1$
Na $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1$
K $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^64s^1$
