When a beta particle is emitted<span> from the nucleus the nucleus has one more proton and one less neutron. This means the atomic mass number remains unchanged and the atomic number increases by 1.</span>

how many moles of sodium are needed to react with sulfuric acid to produce 3.75 moles of sodium sulfate according to the followi
anastassius [24]
Hello!
<span>
You'll need to react 7,5 moles of Sodium with sulfuric acid to produce 3.75 moles of sodium sulfate
</span>
First of all, you need to balance the reaction. The balanced reaction is shown below (ensuring that the Law of Conservation of Mass is met on both sides):

2Na + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + H₂

Now, all that you have to do is to use molar equivalences in this reaction applying the coefficients to calculate the moles of Sodium that you'll need:

molesNa=3,75moles Na_{2} SO_4* \frac{2 moles Na}{1 mol Na_{2} SO_4} =7,5 moles Na 

Have a nice day!

What does a fluorine ion have in common with a neon and a sodium ion
DanielleElmas [232]
The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.

Explanation:

Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).

So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons. 

You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.

You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.

Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.

1. Mg2+ and Ca2+ are in the same group on the periodic table. In terms of electronic
finlep [7]

Answer:

Se detailed explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both magnesium and calcium ions are in group IIA, we can review the following similar properties:

- Since both calcium and magnesium are in group IIA they have two valence electrons, it means that the both of them have two electrons at their outer shells.

- They are highly soluble in water when forming ionic bonds with nonmetals such as those belonging to halogens and oxygen's family.

- Calcium has 18 electrons and magnesium 10 which are two less than the total protons (20 and 12 respectively) since the both of them have lost two electrons due their ionized form.

- Their electron configurations are:

Ca^{20}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^3,3p^6,4s^2\\\\Mg^{12}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^2

It means that the both of them are at the s region since it is the last subshell at which their electrons are.

Best regards.
