This depends on the rules of oxidation...
it depends on if youre working with a compound or an ion
an atom is neutral because the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons

IceJOKER [234]

A small sample of methane burns, releasing 120.0 kJ of heat and doing 830.0 kJ of work. The total energy released is -950.0 kJ.

  • What is energy?

Energy is a property that is transferred to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light.

A small sample of methane undergoes combustion. As the hot gas mixture expands, it releases energy (E).

  • It releases 120.0 kJ of heat. By convention, when heat is released, we assign it a negative sign. Thus, q = -120.0 kJ.
  • It does 830.0 kJ of work. By convention, when the system does work on the surroundings, we assign it a negative sign. Thus, w = -830.0 kJ.

The change in the energy is the sum of the heat released and the work done.

ΔE = q + w = -120.0 kJ + (-830.0 kJ) = -950.0 kJ

Which observation about methane (ch4) can be explained using the orbital hybridization theory?
MissTica
<span>All 4 C-H bonds are identical.

Hybridisation or hybridization is the idea of blending atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals, with various energies, shapes, and so on, than the component atomic orbitals, appropriate for the matching of electrons to make chemical bonds in valence bond theory.

How does an atom become a positively charged ion
sladkih [1.3K]
When, it donates electons.

as for example take
NaCl ( sodium chloride)

it's an ionic compund,
that means it is formed by donating or gaining electrons

Na is writen first than, it must be electropositive i.e it has donated electons which made it positive and the clorine gains electron so it's electronegative.

Na is positive because
as we know it's atomic number is 11 that means it has 11 protons and 11 electrons
now, when it donate electon it has, greater number of protons whose change is +ve so the atom becomes overall positively charged ion or cation.

and something same happens in clorine and because it gains one electron and the number of electrons increase in it by 1 whise charge is -ve so, the atom becomes negatively charged ion or anion which has a -1 charge.
