Hi,
The answer is +2, since there are 10 positive charges (protons) and 8 negative charges (electrons), so 10(+1) + 8(-1)= +10 -8= +2.

If my answer was not clear enough or you’d like further explanation please let me know.
Hope this helps!

The charge of 1 proton is +1 and the charge of one electron is -1
So you multiply by how many you have and add by the number of protons by the number of electron because you want to find the total charge and even if one electron has a negative charge you still need to include it
10(+1)+8(-1)
10-8
+2

If 2.68 g of benzaldehyde are involved with the mixed aldol condensation reaction, how many moles of benzaldehyde are present? R
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles

Explanation:

The molecular formula of benzaldehyde is C₇H₆O

Its molecular mass is calculated from the atomic masses of the constituent atoms.

C = 12.0 g: H = 1.0 g; O = 16.0 g

Molecular mass = ( 12 * 7) + (1 * 6) + (16 * 1) = 106.0 g/mol

Number of moles of  substance = mass of substance/ molar mass of the substance

mass of benzaldehyde = 2.68; molar mass = 106.0 g/mol

Number of moles of benzaldehyde = 2.68 g/ 106 g/mol = 0.0253 moles

Therefore, the number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles
