Why do the atoms in a piece of copper metal have no net charge?

Chemistry

Marat540 [252]3 years ago

Answer;

-The charges of the positive and negative copper ions cancel each other out.

Explanation;

-A normal atom has a neutral charge with equal numbers of positive and negative particles.That means an atom with a neutral charge is one where the number of electrons is equal to the atomic number.

-Atoms are electrically neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). If an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion. If it gains one or more electrons, it now carries a net negative charge, and is thus anionic.

Answer: The correct answer is the charges of the positive and negative copper ions cancel each other out.

Explanation:

A copper metal having no net charge means that it is a neutral atom.

A neutral atom means that total number of protons is equal to the total number of electrons.

Protons carry positive charge and electrons carry negative charge of equal magnitude.

Hence, no net charge means that the charged of positive copper ions cancel the charges of negative copper ions

If 36 000 kg of full cream milk containing 4% fat is to be separated in a 6 hour period into skim milk with 0.45% fat and cream
Yuri [45]

Answer:

B=5522.33kg/h

C=478.11kg/h

Explanation:

Hi! It's a mass balance. First we have to determine the inflow.

mass flow rate = 36000kg / 6h = 6000kg / h

We define the input variable

- input flow (A) = 6000kg / h

-XgA = percentage of fat in A = 0.04

We define output variables.

- skim milk (B)

-creme (C)

-XgB = fat percentage at B = 0.0045

-XgC = percentage of fat in C = 0.45

Then we can start with the balance.

As a general rule, the mass balance is:

Input = Output

Balance sheet

1) A = B + C

Fat balance

2) A * XgA = B * XgB + C * XgC

Now we can solve.

We replace and clear B in equation 2

6000kg / h * 0.04 = B * 0.0045 + C * 0.45

B = (240kg / h) /0.045-C*0.45/0.0045

3) B = 53333.33kg / h-C * 100

We replace equation 3 in 1 and clear C

A = B + C

6000kg / h = 53333.33kg / h-C * 100 + C

C=(6000kg/h-53333.33kg/h)/(-99)

C=478.11kg/h

We replace C in equation 3 and calculate B

B = 53333.33kg / h-478.11kg/h * 100

B=5522.33kg/h

Then we have the values ​​of the outflows.

C=478.11kg/h

B=5522.33kg/h

How much energy is required to vaporize 155 g of butane at its boiling point? the heat of vaporization for butane is 23.1 kj/mol
netineya [11]

The energy required to vaporize 155 g of butane at its boiling point: 61,723 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Enthalpy is the amount of system heat at constant pressure.

The enthalpy is symbolized by H, while the change in enthalpy is the difference between the final enthalpy and the initial enthalpy symbolized by ΔH.

\large{\boxed{\boxed{\bold{\Delta H=H_{End}-H_{First}}}}

Delta H reaction (ΔH) is the amount of heat change between the system and its environment

(ΔH) can be positive (endothermic = requires heat) or negative (exothermic = releasing heat)

The standard unit is kilojoules (kJ)

The enthalpy change symbol (ΔH) is usually written behind the reaction equation.

Change in Standard Evaporation Enthalpy (ΔH vap) is a change in enthalpy at the evaporation of 1 mol liquid phase to the gas phase at its boiling point and standard pressure.

Examples of water evaporation:

 H₂O (l) ---> H₂O (g); ΔH vap = + 44kJ

The enthalpy of evaporation is positive because its energy is needed to break the attraction between molecules in a liquid

  • 155 g of butane

relative molecular mass of butane (C₄H₁₀) = 4.12 + 10.1 = 58 gram / mol

tex]\large{\boxed{mole\:=\:\frac{grams}{relative\:molecular\:mass}}}[/tex]

\large mole\:=\:\large \frac{155}{58}

mole = 2,672

Since the heat of vaporization for butane is 23.1 kj / mol, the energy needed to evaporate 2,672 moles of butane is:

23.1 kJ / mol x 2,672 mol = 61,723 kJ

Which electron configuration represents the electrons of an atom in an excited state? * 2-3 2-7-1 2-8 2-8-1​
Lemur [1.5K]

2-7-1

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Electrons can move the shell up or down by releasing energy or absorbing energy  

Excited electrons show higher electron transfer to the shell by absorbing energy  

So it can be concluded that there are 2 conditions:  

Ground state is the state of electrons filling shell with the lowest energy levels.  

Excited state is the state of electrons which occupies a higher energy level  

The state of excited electrons can be seen from the presence of electrons which do not fill the skin completely but fill the skin afterward  

2-7-1

From its 8 electron configuration, filling 3 shells, 2 electrons in the firs shell, 7 electrons in the second shell and 1 electron in the third shell

the electrons in the third shell should fill the electrons in the second shell first according to Aufbau rule (lower energy shells)

\tt  1s^22s^22p^4\rightarrow ground~state\\\\1s^22s^22p^33s^1\rightarrow excited~state

Thermal energy always moves from a greater energy level to a lesser energy level
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

\fbox{Law -Based \: on \: laws \: of \: thermodynamic}

Explanation:

At constant pressure Thermal energy always moves from a greater energy level to a lesser energy level, laws of thermodynamics prove that.

Nature always likes to attain equilibrium either it's movement of heat energy or flow of water from higher region to lower region. The first and second law of thermodynamics are profe of that, the first law says that the total energy of universe is Constant. Energy can not be destroyed it always changes from one form to another, by work and heat. The second law explains why thermal energy moves from a greater energy level to a lesser energy level, it deals with the change in entropy of a system and surrounding and states heat flows from hot environment to cold environment.
