There are negative ions and positive ions known as anions and cations.

Atoms of elements (besides the noble gases) are not stable.

These atoms lose or gain electrons to gain the stable electronic configuration of a noble gas which has either 2 electrons or 8 electrons in the valence shell.

Since an atom is neutral, once it loses or gain electrons, it gains charge and is known as an ion

New substances formed during a chemical reaction are indicated -
Darya [45]

Answer:

on the right side of the equation and are called products

Explanation:

Reactants are on the left side of the equation. When reactants react, they give products.

Products formed are at the right side of the equation.

They are directed as reactant to product using an arrow pointing towards the products.

New substances formed are called products. Several By-Products can also be formed . They are also on the right hand side.

Al2(SO4)3(s) + H2O(l) ---- Al2O3(s) + H2SO4 (aq) calculate enthalpy formation for this reaction. Balance the reaction. Calculate
katen-ka-za [31]

The given chemical equation is:

Al_{2}(SO_{4})_{3}(aq)+H_{2}O(l)-->Al_{2}O_{3}(aq)+H_{2}SO_{4}(aq)

On balancing the equation we get,

Al_{2}(SO_{4})_{3}(aq)+3H_{2}O(l)-->Al_{2}O_{3}(aq)+3H_{2}SO_{4}(aq)

Calculating enthalpy of formation of this reaction from the standard heats of formation of the products and reactants:

ΔH_{reaction}^{0}=[H_{f}^{0}(Al_{2}O_{3}(s)) + (3*H_{f}^{0}(H_{2}SO_{4}(aq))] -   [H_{f}^{0}(Al_{2}SO_{4}(aq)) + (3*H_{f}^{0}(H_{2}O(l))]

=[(-1669.8kJ/mol)+ {3* (-909.27 kJ/mol)}]-[(-3442kJ/mol)+{3*(-285.8 kJ/mol)}]

=[(-4397.61kJ/mol)]-[(-4299.4kJ/mol)]

=-98.21kJ/mol

Total enthalpy change when 15 mol of Al_{2}(SO_{4})_{3}reacts will be=

15 mol Al_{2}(SO_{4})_{3}*\frac{-98.21kJ}{1 molAl_{2}(SO_{4})_{3}} =-1473.15kJ/mol

Identify the subatomic structure of an atom.
weqwewe [10]

SUBATOMIC PARTICLES

After reading this section you will be able to do the following:

<span>List the three main subatomic particles of an atom.Discuss the positions of these particles within the atom and what electric charge they carry, if any.</span>

What are atoms made of?

Now that we have talked about how atoms are combined to make other substances, let's talk about the particles that make up the atom. Particles that are smaller than the atom are called subatomic particles. The three main subatomic particles that form an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons. The center of the atom is called the nucleus. First, let's learn a bit about protons and neutrons, and then we will talk about electrons a little later.

Protons and Neutrons

Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of an atom. All protons are identical to each other, and all neutrons are identical to each other. Protons have a positive electrical charge, so they are often represented with the mark of a "+" sign. Neutrons have no electrical charge and are said to help hold the protons together (protons are positively charged particles and should repel each other).

If all protons are identical and all neutrons are identical, then what makes the atoms of two different elements different from each other? For example, what makes a hydrogen atom different from a helium atom? The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus give the atoms their specific characteristics. In the graphic below you will notice that each of the three elements have different numbers of protons and neutrons. They would also like to have the same number of electrons as they have protons in order to stay electrically balanced.
