There are primarily three subatomic particles in an atom;
Protons
Electrons
Neutrons
----------------
Protons are positively charged subatomic particles in an atom. These particles give an element it's identity, based on it's 'Atomic Number', or how many protons are contained in the atom.

Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles in an atom. These particles give an element it's reactivity, and are a major part in finding where an element lies on the Periodic Table by valence electrons. We can discuss more of this in PM if you'd like to know more about this. Electrons are also a major part of finding an element's 'atomic mass', or how many neutrons it has.

Neutrons are subatomic particles in an atom that have a neutral or 'no' charge. These are inside of the nucleus of an atom, as opposed to protons and electrons, which are farther outward of the center of an atom.

To answer your question, and reading from the text above, 'Neutrons' is your answer.

I hope this helps!

  • Increase in melting point;
  • Trans- arrangements of side chains around double bonds that remains in the hydrogenated fat.

Explanation:

Vegetable oil contain a larger ratio of double bonds among all its carbon-carbon bonds than animal fat such as butter does. Unlike carbon-carbon single bonds, structures connected to carbon-carbon double bonds are unable to rotate around the bonding axis. As a result, molecules rich in double bonds aren't as malleable or stack as tightly as those with a smaller number of double bonds do. The spacy molecular configuration hinders the formation of intermolecular forces, such that in nature in comparison with animal fats, vegetable <em>oils</em> tend to demonstrate lower melting points.

Hydrogenating vegetable oils reduce the number of double bonds per molecule while attaching extra hydrogen atoms to carbon atoms that used to form double bonds. This process would increase the strength of intermolecular interaction, hence raising the melting point.

The hydrogenation process does not necessary convert <em>all</em> double bonds to single bonds; some double bonds remains in the molecule, preventing the rotation of structures on their sides. Double bonds in naturally-occuring fatty acids tend to be of the cis- configuration, with hydrogen atoms connected to the same side of the carbon-carbon double bond. The high temperature involved in the hydrogenation process (around 90 degrees Celsius) can trigger the flipping of atoms connected to these double bonds to produce trans- fatty acids with hydrogen atoms bonded to opposite sides of the double bond.

Calcium reacts gently with water to give hydrogen and calcium hydroxide, which is only slightly soluble, thus slows down the reaction.

It will be assumed that hydrochloric acid used is a dilute aqueous solution.

However, calcium reacts with hydrochloric acid to give calcium chloride which is readily soluble in water, and hydrogen, being a typical reaction of relatively active metals with acids.
Ca(s) + 2HCl(aq)  -> CaCl2(aq) +H2(g) &uarr; + heat

The clues that it is a chemical reaction could be:
- formation of a new substance, gaseous hydrogen
- disappearance of a metallic solid in the solution
- heat formed during the vigorous reaction.

As silver is below hydrogen in the electrochemical series, it will not be expected to react with dilute hydrocloric acid. (however, it dissolves in oxidizing acid such as nitric acid, but not displacing hydrogen as a product).

Do all solids have thermal energy? Why?
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Yes because all solids have some thermal energy, its atoms do vibrate. However, this movement is very small and very rapid, and cannot be observed under ordinary conditions. When heat is added a solid can become a liquid.
