atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles; electrons, protons and neutrons
atomic number is the number of protons. atomic number is characteristic for the element. In ground state atoms, the number of electrons and protons are the same.
the electronic configuration of Ca in the ground state is
Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²
when Ca loses its 2 valence electrons, it becomes positively charged and the electronic configuration becomes
Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶
number of electrons in Ca²⁺ is 18
the atom in the ground state would have the same number of electrons and protons. Therefore number of protons are 18. then the atomic number of the element is 18
the atom having an atomic number of 18 is Ar.
the answer is 1) Ar
Answer:
1.35 g
Explanation:
Data Given:
mass of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) = 3.34 g
Mass of Oxygen: ?
Solution:
First find the percentage composition of Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄)
So,
Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 39 + 55 + 4(16)
Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 158 g/mol
Calculate the mole percent composition of Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄).
Mass contributed by Oxygen (O) = 4 (16) = 64 g
Since the percentage of compound is 100
So,
Percent of Oxygen (O) = 64 / 158 x 100
Percent of Oxygen (O) = 40.5 %
It means that for ever gram of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) there is 0.405 g of Oxygen (O) is present.
So,
for the 3.34 grams of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) the mass of Oxygen will be
mass of Oxygen (O) = 0.405 x 3.34 g
mass of Oxygen (O) = 1.35 g
Answer:
b. 6.02 x 1023 molecules
Explanation:
The formula mass of ammonia is 14 + 1 × 3 = 17.
The number of moles in 27.6g ammonia is 27.6 ÷ 17 = 1.62 mol.
A mole is 6.02 × 10²³, so the number of hydrogen atoms in a 1.62 moles of ammonia is 1.62 × 6.02 × 10²³ × 3 = 2.93 × 10² atoms.
Answer:
2. Na2O
Reasoning:
Na (soduim) is the only metal out of all the elements in the answer choices, and is bonded with oxygen, a nonmetal, therefore creating an ionic bond.
