Answer:

All atoms have same atomic number because number of electrons in all atoms are same.

Explanation

Every atom consist of nucleus or a positive center. The protons and neutrons are present with in the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus. All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. The number of protons or number of electrons are the atomic number of an atom while the number of protons and number of neutrons are the mass number of an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of protons and electrons. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.

For example:

Atomic number of copper is 29 it have 29 electrons and 29 protons.

While its atomic mass is 63.546 and have 35 neutrons.

Explanation:

Atomic number of an atom is actually the sum of total number of protons present in it.  And, atomic mass is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

And, when an atom is neutral in nature then the number number of electrons present in it is equal to the number of protons in it.

For example, atomic number of copper is 29 and atomic mass of copper is 63.

This means that a sample of pure copper will have all atoms has an atomic number 29, that is, number of protons is 29.

And, number of electrons is also 29 and number of neutrons is 35.

Which is untrue about covalent compounds?
scoundrel [369]

The untrue statement is that they high melting points.  

The covalent compounds are the compounds exhibiting strong intra-molecular bonds. This is due to the tightness of the atoms within the covalent molecules. The force of attraction between the individual molecules in a covalent compound seems to be weak. The covalent compounds exhibit weak intermolecular forces that hold the atoms together due to this they have a low melting point.

What is an alkali metal with fewer than 10 protons in its nucleus?
Trava [24]

Answer:

            Lithium

Explanation:

                  Alkali metals are group of metals which are present in first group of periodic table. As we know atomic number is equal to number of protons contained by a particular element. Therefore, the alkali metals along with there number of protons are listed below;

Alkali Metal                                         Number of Protons

Lithium                                                               3

Sodium                                                             11

Potassium                                                         19

Rubidium                                                         37

Cesium                                                             55

Francium                                                          87

Hence, it is cleared from above table that Lithium is having fewer protons than 10.

Look up the reduction potential for each cell in question on a table of standard electrode potential like this one from Chemistry LibreTexts. [1]

The standard reduction potential

resembles the electrode's strength as an oxidizing agent and equivalently its tendency to get reduced. The reduction potential of a Platinum-Hydrogen Electrode under standard conditions (

) is defined as

0

l

V

for reference. [2]

A cell with a high reduction potential indicates a strong oxidizing agent- vice versa for a cell with low reduction potentials.

Two half cells connected with an external circuit and a salt bridge make a galvanic cell; the half-cell with the higher

E

θ

and thus higher likelihood to be reduced will experience reduction and act as the cathode, whereas the half-cell with a lower

E

θ

will experience oxidation and act the anode.

E

Therefore in this galvanic cell, the

the anode.

The standard cell potential of a galvanic cell equals the standard reduction potential of the cathode minus that of the anode. That is:
