How many electrons would Boron with a +2 charge have?

Chemistry
1 answer:
irina [24]4 years ago
4 0

5 electrons

Boron atomic number 5 has five electrons in its ground state.

Commonly Boron will lose 3 electrons leaving 2 electrons in its most common ionic form.

Explanation:

The atomic number gives the number of protons. Protons which have a positive charge are balanced by an equal number of electrons in a neutral atom.

Boron number 5 has five protons and therefore as a neutral atom also has five electrons.

Boron has an electron configuration of

1s22s22p1

The most stable electron configuration for Boron is

1s2

+ 3 charges. By losing three electrons Boron can achieve the stable electron structure of Helium

Potential Chemical energy

Explanation:

Potential Chemical energy is stored in a fossil fuel and released in the form of kinetic heat energy when it is burnt.

Potential energy is the energy at rest in a body. It is that energy when no change is happening to a body. There are different forms of potential energy. A good example in fossil fuels is chemical energy.

Kinetic energy of a body is the energy due to the motion of a body. It occurs when particles of a medium are agitated. An example of kinetic energy in fossil fuel occurs when it is burnt.

  • the formative process of a fossil fuel stores chemical energy.
  • the process prevents energy rich carbon atoms from being converted back into nature by decomposers.
  • the hydrocarbon chain stores chemical energy
  • the energy is released when the molecules are burnt and they form heat energy, a form of thermal energy.
