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

Chemistry
1 answer:
irina [24]3 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

N2 + 3 H2 --> 2 NH3
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

4 moles of NH3 will be produced

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as:

            N₂  +  3H₂  →  2NH₃

We have to check that the equation of the reaction is balanced.

 Then;

      if 2 mole of N₂ reacts;

 1 mole of N₂ will react with 3 mole of H₂ to produce 2 mole of NH₃

2 mole of N₂ will react with (2x3)mole of H₂ to produce (2x2)mole of NH₃

                                                    6mole of H₂ to produce      4 mole of NH₃
