Three different atoms or atomic cations with 3 electrons.

Chemistry
1 answer:
sveticcg [70]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Li, Be^+, B^{2+}

Explanation:

To answer this question successfully, we need to remember that atoms are neutral species, since the number of protons, the positively charged particles, is equal to the number of electrons, the negatively charged particles. That said, we may firstly find an atom which has 3 electrons (and, as a result, 3 protons, as it should be neutral).

The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of an element. We firstly may have an atom with 3 protons and 3 electrons (atomic number of 3, this is Li).

Similarly, we may take the atomic number of 4, beryllium, and remove 1 electron from it. Upon removing an electron, it would become beryllium cation, Be^+.

We may use the same logic going forward and taking the atomic number of 5. This is boron. In this case, we need to remove 2 electrons to have a total of 3 electrons. Removal of 2 electrons would yield a +2-charged cation: B^{2+}.

Below are the reduction half reactions for chemolithoautotrophic nitrification, where ammonia is a source of electrons and energ
SSSSS [86.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

E^o_{(NO_2^-/NH_4)}=-0.41V\\E^o_{(O_2/H_2O)}=0.82V

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, oxygen will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

NH_4 will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

The half reactions follows:

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>  NH_4\rightarrow NO_2^-+6e^-     ( × 4)

<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>  O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O   ( × 6)

<u>Overall reaction:</u> 4NH_4+6O_2\rightarrow 4NO_2^-+12H_2O

We are given:

Molecules of NH_4 = 28

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 molecules of NH_4 reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen gas

So, 28 molecules of NH_4 will react with = \frac{6}{4}\times 28=42 molecules of oxygen gas

Hence, the molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

Why is the mass of the third subatomic particle ignored?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: The mass of electrons is mostly ignored because electrons are extremely small compared to neutrons and protons.

Explanation: A proton is about 1,836 times the size of an electron.

On the periodic table, the atomic number for each element can be found. This number is found by measuring the weight of 6.02 x 10^23 atoms of the element in grams. Electrons aren't ignored when finding exact math, but for the sake of simplification high school teachers will generally have you only count the number of protons and neutrons when calculating the mass of atoms.

Which of the following causes clouds to form? (1 point)
elena-s [515]
The answer is B, early in the morning water covered areas (lakes,ponds,puddles,etc.) will vaporize a little bit because of the heat from the sun and it will continue all day, vapors rise towards the atmosphere and since it's a lot cooler there it will condense into a cloud which is full of tiny frozen water particles. Hope this helps <span />
