The correct answer is A. The energy change that happens when a neutral atom gains an electron

Explanation:

In chemistry, an electron is a negatively charged particle that along with neutrons and protons form the atom and make an atom be positively charged, negatively charged or neutral. Additionally, electron affinity refers to the energy involved as in the transfer of electrons, especially as an atom that is neutral gains an electron and energy is released during this change. This occurs mainly in the gaseous state of atoms and implies the creation of bonds. Thus, electron affinity is the energy change as a neutral atom gains an electron (Option A).

a chemist adds of a calcium bromide solution to a reaction flask. calculate the mass in grams of calcium bromide the chemist has
mestny [16]

The mass of Calcium bromide added in the flask is 29.7 g.

<h3>What is Molarity? </h3>

Molarity is defined as the ratio of number of moles od solute to the number of volume of solution in litres.

Molarity = number of moles/ volume

<h3>Calculation of Moles</h3>

Number of moles = Molarity × volume

Given,

Molarity of Calcium bromide = 0.363 M

Volume of Calcium bromide = 410 mL

= 0.410L

By substituting all the value, we get

Number of moles = 0.363 × 0.410

= 0.148 mol

As we know that,

Molar mass of Calcium bromide = 199.89 g

<h3>What is Mole? </h3>

Mole is defined as the given mass of substance to the molar mass of substance.

Given mass = Moles × Molar mass

= 0.148 × 199.89

= 29.75 g

= 29.7 g (significant digit)

Thus, we calculated that the mass of Calcium bromide added in the flask is 29.7 g.
