Answer:
I believe the answer is B
Explanation:
A nucleus of an atom has protons and neutrons. We know that a proton has a charge of +1 , while a neutron has no charge, or 0 . Therefore, the nucleus of an atom will always have a positive charge.
Answer: Structural Isomers
Explanation:
The compounds having similar molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms or groups in space are called isomers and the phenomenon is called as isomerism.
Isomers are of two types: structural isomers and stereo isomers.
Structural isomers are isomers in which molecules with the same molecular formula have different bonding patterns.
Stereoisomers are isomers in which molecules have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space.
Thus when molecules have the same number of each element but those atoms are arranged differently they are known as Structural isomers.
Thomson's model of the atom was called the plum pudding model. He discovered electrons, so he placed them in the atoms. This was before the nucleus was discovered.
Now, the current model is an atom that contains a positively charged nucleus (with both protons and neutrons), and negatively charged orbitals with electrons.
Answer:
D. Ni²⁺
Explanation:
We know at once that the answer cannot be A or C, because Ni and Cu are already in their lowest oxidation states.
The correct answer must be either B or D.
An electrolytic cell is the opposite of a galvanic cell. In the former, the reaction proceeds spontaneously. In the latter, you must force the reaction to occur.
One strategy to solve this problem is:
- Look up the standard reduction potentials for the half reaction·
- Figure out the spontaneous direction.
- Write the equation in the reverse direction.
1. Standard reduction potentials
E°/V
Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu; 0.3419
Ni²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Ni; -0.257
2. Galvanic Cell
We reverse the direction of the more negative half cell and add.
<u>E°/V
</u>
Ni ⟶ Ni²⁺ + 2e⁻; 0.257
<u>Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu; </u> 0.3419
Ni + Cu²⁺ ⟶ Cu + Ni²⁺; 0.599
This is the spontaneous direction.
Cu²⁺ is reduced to Cu.
3. Electrochemical cell
<u>E°/V</u>
Ni²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Ni; -0.257
<u>Cu ⟶ Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻; </u> <u>-0.3419</u>
Cu + Ni²⁺ ⟶ Ni + Cu²⁺; -0.599
This is the non-spontaneous direction.
Ni²⁺ is reduced to Ni in the electrolytic cell.
Explanation:
Because opposites attract, the negative charge at the bottom of the storm cloud wants to link up with the ground’s positive charge. Once the negative charge at the bottom of the cloud gets large enough, a flow of negative charge called a stepped leader rushes toward the Earth. The positive charges at the ground are attracted to the stepped leader, so positive charge flows upward from the ground. When the stepped leader and the positive charge meet, a strong electric current carries positive charge up into the cloud. This electric current is known as the return stroke. We see it as the bright flash of a lightning bolt.
Thunder and lightning occur at roughly the same time although you see the flash of lightning before you hear the thunder. This is because light travels much faster than sound
