How many electrons would a neutral atom of nitrogen need to gain in order to have a full valence electrons shell

2 answers:

4 0

Nitrogen atom has a valence electrons of 5 electrons. A full octet or full valence electrons shell is composed of 8 electrons. Hence, an additional of 4 electrons are needed for it to become full. this is achieved by covalent bonding where electrons are shared or ionic bonding where electrons are transferred.

Which aqueous solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure?(1) 1.0 M KC1(aq) (3) 2.0 M KCl(aq)(2) 1.0 M CaC12(aq)

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

(4) 2.0 M CaCl₂(aq).

Explanation:

Adding solute to water elevates the boiling point.

The elevation in boiling point (ΔTb) can be calculated using the relation:

ΔTb = i.Kb.m,

where, ΔTb is the elevation in boiling point.

i is the van 't Hoff factor.

van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1.

Kb is the molal elevation constant of water.

m is the molality of the solution.

(1) 1.0 M KCl(aq):

i for KCl = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 1.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kb)(1.0 m) = 2(Kb).

(2) 2.0 M KCl(aq):

i for KCl = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 2.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kb)(2.0 m) = 4(Kb).

(3) 1.0 M CaCl₂(aq):

i for CaCl₂ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 3/1 = 3.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 1.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (3)(Kb)(1.0 m) = 3(Kb).

(4) 2.0 M CaCl₂(aq):

i for CaCl₂ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 3/1 = 3.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 2.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (3)(Kb)(2.0 m) = 6(Kb).

So, the aqueous solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure is: (4) 2.0 M CaCl₂(aq).

What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron?

vazorg [7]

Answer:

What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron is energy.

Explanation:

The normal state of the atoms, where all the electrons are occupying the lowest possible energy level, is called ground state.

The valence electrons are the electrons that occupy the outermost shell, this is the electrons in the highest main energy level (principal quantum number) of the atom.

So, a nonvalence electron occupies an orbital with less energy than what a valence electron does; in consequence, in order to a nonvalence electron jump from its lower energy level to the higher energy level of a valence electron, the former has to absorb (gain) energy.

This new state is called excited state and is temporary: the electron promoted to the higher energy level will emit the excess energy, in the form of light (photons), to come back to the lower energy level and so the atom return to the ground state.

The spectrum of the combined chloro and aqua cobalt complex solutions tells you_______________.

andre [41]

Answer:The purple color is due to a mixture of the pink aqua complex and blue chloro complex and is not due to a new species.

Explanation:

The pink aqua complex of cobalt can be in equilibrium with blue chloro complex of cobalt giving rise to a purple colour. This equilibrium is governed by Le Chaterliers principle. A change in chloride or water concentration could shift the equilibrium towards any of the species causing its colour to become the dominant colour of the solution.
