A=24
N(n)=13

N(p)=A-N(n)

N(p)=24-13=11

²⁴Na - sodium

atomic number is 11

What happens when the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure? The liquid freezes The intermolecular forces
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The liquid boils.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is simply defined as the pressure exerted on a substance (solid/liquid) by the vapor of the substance collected just at the top of the surface of the substance. In concise words, it is the pressure of Vapor that is in contact with its solid or liquid state.

For a liquid, it is the pressure of the Vapor gathering at the top of the surface of the liquid.

When this Vapor pressure matches the external pressure, the temperature stays constant and the molecules of the liquid all through the liquid can gain enough energy, rise to the surface of the liquid and break free in gaseous form; thereby, boiling.

The definition of boiling point basically explains that it is the point at which temperature stays constant, and the vapour pressure of the liquid matches the atmospheric/external pressure around the liquid and its liquid molecules change into vapor.

This is why liquids boil faster at higher altitudes; the atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes is reduced, hence, the temperature at which liquid boils at this high altitude is normally lower than its known boiling point temperature.

It is also why food cooks to a temperature higher than the boiling point of water in a pressure cooker/pot. The added pressure ensures that the cooking water boils at temperatures higher than its boiling point; thereby exposing the cooking ingredients to a higher temperature, leading to faster cooking.

Hence, it is obvious why boiling is the answer to this question.

What is the identity of the element, and how many neutrons does it have? An elements most stable ion forms an ionic compound wit
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B. CA, 14

Explanation:

Atoms of elements contain small particles known as electrons, neutrons, and protons. The nucleus of an atom is made up of neutrons and protons which are at the center of the atom. Electrons on the other hand surrounds the nucleus. Electron has negative charge while proton has a positive charge. The number of neutrons is equivalent to the number of protons . In addition, the number of protons is equal to mass number minus the number of electrons.

For the compound XCl_{2}, it can be broken down into X^{2+} and 2Cl^{-}. Its ion has a mass of 34 and 18 electrons which means it has already lost 2 electrons.

Therefore:

For the given element, the number of electrons is 18+2 = 20 electrons.

The number of protons = 34 - 20 = 14.

And the number of neutrons is 14.

Only option B has the correct answer.

If the pH of a solution is 5, what is the hydrogen ion concentration?
Gnoma [55]

Yo sup??

We know that

pH=-log[H+]

[H+]=10^(-pH)

pH=5

therefore

[H+]=10^(-5)

The medium is acidic

Hope this helps.

What happens to the number of valence electrons as you move up a group
Advocard [28]
Ionization Energy: DOWN a Group: Ionization energy DECREASES as you go DOWN a Group because the farther the valence electrons are from the nucleus (pulling power of the protons) the less energy it costs another atom to steal them
