The gaining of electron by an atom results in the formation of anion shown by the negative charge on the atom whereas lose of electron results in the formation of cation shown by positive charge on the atom. The atom lose or gain electron to complete their octet and get stable in nature.
The chlorine atom will gain an electron and form chloride anion with one negative charge on it. The chloride ion is more stable in nature compared to the chlorine atom due to complete octet of chloride ion by gaining of electron.
Electronic configuration of chlorine atom is:
![[Ne]3s^{2}3p^{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E%7B2%7D3p%5E%7B5%7D)
By gaining of one electron, electronic configuration of chloride ion is:
![[Ne]3s^{2}3p^{6}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E%7B2%7D3p%5E%7B6%7D)
Thus, the equation that shows the formation of the chloride ion from a neutral chlorine atom is:

Answer:
pH = 2.66
Explanation:
- Acetic Acid + NaOH → Sodium Acetate + H₂O
First we <u>calculate the number of moles of each reactant</u>, using the <em>given volumes and concentrations</em>:
- 0.75 M Acetic acid * 50.0 mL = 37.5 mmol acetic acid
- 1.0 M NaOH * 10.0 mL = 10 mmol NaOH
We<u> calculate how many acetic acid moles remain after the reaction</u>:
- 37.5 mmol - 10 mmol = 27.5 mmol acetic acid
We now <u>calculate the molar concentration of acetic acid after the reaction</u>:
27.5 mmol / (50.0 mL + 10.0 mL) = 0.458 M
Then we <u>calculate [H⁺]</u>, using the<em> following formula for weak acid solutions</em>:
- [H⁺] =

Finally we <u>calculate the pH</u>:
She will most likely observe that the temperature
does not change during melting because the heat absorbed is used to overcome
intermolecular forces rather than to increase the kinetic energy of the
particles if she measures the temperature of the water in the beaker.
Answer:
(a) proton
(b) neutron
(c) electron
particles in nucleus are proton and neutron.
atom is electrically neutral because no.of proton= no.of electron=6
