What is meant by the term neutral in relation to atoms?

Chemistry

Sonbull [250]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

it means positive and negative charges are  equal.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

when a neutral atom loses a electron positive charge is created because  number of protons are positive charge becomes greater than negative charge.

X → X⁺ + e⁻

When a neutral atom accept  the electron negative charge is created because negative charge is become greater than positive charge.

X + e⁻ → X⁻

Which requires more heat to warm from 22.0°C and 85.0°C, 45.0 g of water or 200. g of aluminum metal?
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Aluminum

Explanation:

We need to warm from 22°C to 85°C

a) 45 g of water                      

b) 200 g of aluminum             Cp = 0.905 J/cal°C

a) Water

Q = mCpΔT

Q = (45)(1)(85 - 22) = 45(63) = 2835 cal

b) Aluminum

Q = (200)(0.905)(85 - 22) = 114030 cal

A small container of perfume is opened in a classroom. Soon every student in the room smells the perfume. Explain this in terms
iogann1982 [59]

When perfume or cologne is sprayed into the air, it turns into a gas and its particles mix with other air particles that quickly move around the room. This is because gas is the least dense of the three states of matter. It moves quickly into any space or volume because it has the least density. This is called diffusion, when molecules or particles move from areas with high concentration to low concentration areas.

I found a similar question online which will help me answer your incomplete question. To make it easier, show all the elements of the compound given. It is shown in the second picture attached.

a.) The formula for unsaturation number is shown in the 3rd picture attached. Following this, 
n = 8
m = 2(8) + 2 + 0 + 0 - 0 = 18
Thus,
x = Unsaturation number = (18 - 8)/2 = 5
<em>The unsaturation number is 5.</em>

b.) The molar mass of C is 12.01 g/mol; H is 1 g/mol; O is 16 g/mol. So, the molecular weight is:
Molecular weight = 12.01(8) + 8(1) + 2(16) = 136.08 g/mol
<em>The molecular weight of the ester is 136.08 g/mol.</em>

Calculate the Molarity (M, moles solute / Liter of solution) of a solution that is made by dissolving 3.456 mmoles of Barium per
yan [13]
Since Molarity is moles per Liter, you will first need to convert the mL into L, which makes it 0.4321L. Next divide: moles on top, Liters on the bottom.
3.456 moles / .4321L = 7.998 M
