Answer:

Boron

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.

For example

In given atomic model we can see that there are five electrons out side the nucleus it means this atomic model is of that element which have atomic number 5 and it is boron.

It has 5 electron 5 proton and 6 neutrons.

It means its atomic number is five and mass number is 5+6 = 11

Need help with this question.... Next to each Formula, write the number of atoms of each element found in one unit of the compou

Andrew [12]

Answer:

The number of atoms present in one unit of the following compounds is:

a). Potassium Iodide , KI = 2

b).Sodium Sulfide, $Na_{2}S$ = 3

c). Silicon Dioxide , $SiO_{2}$ = 3

d). Carbonic Acid , $H_{2}CO_{3}$ = 6

Explanation:

Atomicity : It is defined as the number of atoms that are present in a given molecule/compound.

Atom : The smallest unit of matter is called atom. For e.g O is atom of oxygen but $O_{2}$ is not an atom , it is molecule of oxygen .

$O_{2}$ molecule has 2 atoms of Oxygen

Similarly Na , K , Fe are atoms but $O_{2}$ , $CO_{2}$ , $N_{2}$ , $H_{2}$ are molecules

a).Potassium Iodide

KI = 1 atom of K + 1 atom of I

Total atoms = 2

b) Sodium Sulfide

$Na_{2}S$ = 2 atoms of Na + 1 atom of S

Total atoms = 3

c) Silicon Dioxide

$SiO_{2}$ = 1 atom of Si + 2 atoms of O

Total atoms = 3

d) Carbonic Acid

$H_{2}CO_{3}$ = 2 atom of H + 1 atom of C + 3 atom of O

= 2+1+3

Total atoms = 6

Electronegativity is a measure of an atom’s affinity for electrons. Which of the following statements is true? Electronegativity

jekas [21]

Answer: Electronegativity increases as the size of an atom decrease.

Explanation: Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom in a bond to attract electrons to itself.

Electronegativity increases across a period and decreases down a group.

Towards the left of the table, valence shells are less than half full, so these atoms (metals) tend

to lose electrons and have low electronegativity. Towards the right of the table, valence shells are more than half full, so these atoms (nonmetals) tend to gain electrons and have high electronegativity.

Down a group, the number of energy levels (n) increases, and so does the distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. The increased distance and the increased shielding weaken the nuclear attraction, and so an atom can’t attract electrons as strongly.

5. Which are physical properties of a property of Aluminum metal?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Aluminum is a shiny, silvery white colored metal that is light in weight and strong. Th density of aluminum is 2.7 g/mL, which means the metal will sink in water, but is still relatively light

Hope this helps (:
