Consider the gold isotope 197Au. How many electrons, protons, and neutrons are in a neutral 197Au atom?

Chemistry
1 answer:
tangare [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The 197Au isotope has 79 protons, 79 electrons and 118 neutrons

Explanation:

Step 1: The isotope = 197Au

Step 2: Calculate neutrons, electrons and protons

197 = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Isotopes always have the same proton number ( is the same as the atomic number). For Gold (Au) is this 79.

The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom. Since we have 79 protons, there are also 79 electrons.

All isotopes of Au have a different number of neutrons.

The number of neutrons = 197 -79 = 118 neutrons

The 197Au isotope has 79 protons, 79 electrons and 118 neutrons

What occurs to the atoms of reactants in a chemical reaction?
djyliett [7]

Question:

What occurs to the atoms of reactants in a chemical reaction?

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, the atoms and molecules that interact with each other are called reactants. ... No new atoms are created, and no atoms are destroyed. In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken, and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make the products.

As you move from left to right across a period, what happens to the atomic radil?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Moving Across a Period

Moving from left to right across a period, the atomic radius decreases. The nucleus of the atom gains protons moving from left to right, increasing the positive charge of the nucleus and increasing the attractive force of the nucleus upon the electrons

The elements C and Se have the same electronegativity value, 2.55. Which of the following claims about the compound that forms f
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Having the same electronegativity means that the both elements will form a nonpolar bond. The shared electrons of the bind will be found equidistant from the nucleus of the two atoms because none has an unusual ability to attract the electrons of a bond towards itself.

What is the average atomic mass of the element?
morpeh [17]

The average atomic mass of element X is 14.007 u.

The average atomic mass of X is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its <em>relative importance</em> (i.e., its % abundance).

Thus,  

0.996 36 × 14.003 u =13.952 03 u

0.003 64 × 15.000 u = <u>0.054 60 u</u>

__________TOTAL = 14.007     u
