What is the difference between an atom an ion how to determine the charge

Chemistry
1 answer:
Eduardwww [97]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

When an atom's outermost orbital gains or loses electrons (also known as valence electrons), the atom forms an ion. An ion with more protons than electrons carries a net positive charge and is called a cation. An ion with more electrons than protons carries a net negative charge and is called an anion

What is the equation for SHC? Give all<br> units
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Q=mcΔT

Explanation:

The formula for expressing the amount of heat transferred between energy stores is given by the equation. The specific heat capacity of water is 4180 J/kgoC (Joules per kilogram per degree), this means it takes 4180 J of heat energy to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1oC.

Give the half equation to show what happens to oxygen when it is rusting
ycow [4]

Answer:

½O 2 + 2e - + H 2O → 2OH.

Explanation:

Redox reactions - Higher

In terms of electrons:

oxidation is loss of electrons

reduction is gain of electrons

Rusting is a complex process. The example below show why both water and oxygen are needed for rusting to occur. They are interesting examples of oxidation, reduction and the use of half equations:

iron loses electrons and is oxidised to iron(II) ions: Fe → Fe2+ + 2e-

oxygen gains electrons in the presence of water and is reduced: ½O2 + 2e- + H2O → 2OH-

iron(II) ions lose electrons and are oxidised to iron(III) ions by oxygen: 2Fe2+ + ½O2 → 2Fe3+ + O2-

What is the concentration of H+ in a 2.5 M HCl solution?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

The concentration of H⁺ in a 2.5 M HCl solution is 2.5 M

Explanation:

As HCl is a strong acid and hence a strong electrolyte, it will dissociate as

HCl ⟶ H⁺ + Cl⁻

So, The concentration of H⁺ will be 2.5 M (same as HCl)

Thus, The concentration of H⁺ in a 2.5 M HCl solution is 2.5 M

Answer:

solution:-a homogenous mixture of two or more substances in relative amounts that can be varied continuously up to what is called the limit of solubility.

solute:-is a substance, usually a solid, that is dissolved in a solution, which is usually a liquid.

solvent:-substance, ordinarily a liquid, in which other materials dissolve to form a solution.

polar molecule:-is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative.

Nonpolar molecules occur when electrons are shared equal between atoms of a diatomic molecule or when polar bonds in a larger molecule cancel each other out.

concentration refers to the amount of a substance in a defined space.
