it will have a negative charge

Explanation:

Answer:

The atom will have a negative charge.

Explanation:

Electrons are subatomic particles with a negative charge, protons are subatomic particles with a negative charge, and neutrons have no charge. When a neutral atom's balance is disrupted by an extra electron, the atom  becomes negatively charged.

Find the quantinum numbers n,m,l,s for the last of potassium layer pleasee help explain correctly all
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Quantum numbers of the outermost electron in potassium:

  • n = 4.
  • l  = 1.
  • m_l = 0.
  • Either m_s = 1/2.

Explanation:

Refer to the electron configuration of a potassium atom. The outermost electron in a ground-state potassium atom is in the 4s orbital (fourth s orbital.)

The quantum number n (the principal quantum number) specifies the main energy shell of an electron. This electron is in the fourth main energy shell (as seen in the number four in the orbital.) Hence, n = 4 for this electron.

The quantum number l (the angular momentum quantum number) specifies the shape (s, p, d, etc.) of an electron. l = 1 for s\! orbitals (such as the one that contains this electron.

Quantum numbers n and l specify the shape of an orbital. On the other hand, the magnetic quantum number m_l specifies the orientation of these orbitals in space.

However, s orbitals are spherical. Regardless of the value of n, the only possible m_l value for electrons in s\! orbitals is m_l = 0.

The spin quantum number m_s distinguishes between the two electrons in an orbital. The two possible values of m_s \! are (+1/2) and (-1/2). Typically, the first electron in an orbital is assigned an upward (\uparrow) spin, which corresponds to m_s = (+1/2).

What is equal to the number of particles in 36 grams of carbon-12?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

3 moles

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will  use the Avogadro numbers.

The number 6.022×10²³ is called Avogadro number and it is the number of atoms, ions or molecules in one mole of substance.  According to this,

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole =  6.022×10²³  atoms.

18 g water = 1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

we are given 36 g of C-12. So,

12 g of C-12 = 1 mole

24 g of C-12 =  2 mole

36 g of C-12 = 3 mole

So 3 moles of C-12 equals to the number of particles in 36 g of C-12.

Predict the effect of the following changes in the reaction CO (g) + 2 H2 (g) <-> CH3OH (g) + energy.
Sophie [7]

Explanation:

  Equation of reaction:

             CO   + 2H₂    ⇒   CH₃OH   +   energy

a.  An increase in pressure:

A change in pressure affects only equilibrium involving a gas or gases. Le Chatelier's principle can be used to predict the direction of displacement.

An increase in pressure on an equilibrium system will shift the position of equilibrium to the side having smaller volume and vice-versa

       CO   + 2H₂    ⇒   CH₃OH   +   energy

          3 moles                  1 moles

An increase in pressure will favor the forward reaction to be favored.

b. Addition of H₂:

An in concentration of a specie favors the direction that uses up that specie and lowers its concentration.

Addition of hydrogen gas increases the concentration of amount of substances reacting.

To annul the effect of the reactant, more the product is given. The equilibrium shifts in the forward direction.
