In all atoms, the number of protons and the number of electrons is always the same. The number of neutrons is very roughly the same as the number of protons, but sometimes it's rather more. The number of protons in an atom is called the atomic number and it tells you what type of atom you have.

Answer:

Atoms make up everything in the known universe.

Explanation:

Atoms have different configurations, meaning that they have a different number of electrons surrounding the atom. There are actually two separate concentric rings around the atom, but that's not important to the answer. These separate atoms bind together to make molecules, which band together in different ways to form solids, liquids, gasses, and everything in between. In other words, we are all made up of around seven billion billion billion (7*10^27) atoms.

For the reaction KClO2⟶KCl+O2 KClO2⟶KCl+O2 assign oxidation numbers to each element on each side of the equation. K in KClO2:K i
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula of the reaction:

            KClO₂ → KCl + O₂

To assign oxidation numbers, we have to obey some rules:

  1. Elements in an uncombined state or one whose atoms combine with one another to form molecules have an oxidation number of zero.
  2. The charge on simple ions signifies their oxidation number.
  3. The algebraic sum of all the oxidation number of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero. For radicals with charges, their oxidation number is the charge.

The oxidation number of K in KClO₂:

                                   K + (-1) + 2(-2) = 0

                                    K-5 = 0

                                    K = +5

The oxidation number of K in KCl:

                                K + (-1) = 0

                                K = +1

The oxidation number Cl in KClO₂ is -1

For Cl in KCl, the oxidation number is -1

For O in KClO₂, the oxidation number is (2 x -2) = -4

For O in O₂, the oxidation number is 0

K moves from an oxidation state of +5 to +1. This is a gain of electrons and K has undergone reduction. We then say K is reduced.

O moves from an oxidation state of -4 to 0. This is a loss of electrons and O has undergone oxidation. We say O is oxidized.

If a sample of N2 gas has an initial pressure of 500 Torr and volume of 0.5 L, what will the final volume be if the pressure is
kherson [118]

Answer:

V₂ = 0.4 L

Explanation:

<u>Data:</u>

  • P₁ (initial pressure) = 500 torr
  • V₁ (initial volume) = 0.5 L
  • P₂ (final pressure) = 700 torr

<u>Wanted:</u>

  • V₂ (final volume)

<u>Equation:</u>

  • P₁V₁ = P₂V₂  →  V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂

<u>Solution:</u>

  • V₂ = \frac{(500 torr)(0.5 L)}{700 torr} = 0.3571 L or 0.4 L
