How to find how many electrons are in an element

Murljashka [212]

Explanation:

1) Locate the atomic number in the upper left corner of the square. The atomic number will tell you the number of protons

2) In a neutral state, the element will contain the same number of protons as it will electrons.

--> Boron (B) has an atomic number of 5, so it has 5 protons.

--> Having 5 protons (+1 charge each) means to be balanced, it must have 5 electrons (-1 charge each)

However, what if it's not in a neutral state?

If it's not in a neutral state, it will look something like this:

Ca ^ 2+

Btw, the "^" means that it will be written like it's an exponent. That confuses people sometimes.

Anyways, the "2+" means it's an ion with a positive charge of 2. For us to have a positive charge, it means it's lost two electrons (cause electrons are negative, so taking them away means we are left with a more positive charge).

To get the number of remaining electrons, subtract the 2 from the atomic mass. In this case, that would be 20.

20 - 2 = 18 electrons

Another example:

N ^3-

Atomic Number: 7

7 + 3 = 10 electrons.

Why did I add here instead of subtracting? It's cause the 3- means we have added electrons, resulting in the ion having a negative charge. It's got more electrons than usual.

Hopefully this helps a bit.

A reaction produces 0.883 moles of H₂O. How many molecules are produced?

prisoha [69]

The answer is 5.32 × 10²³ molecules

Avogadro's number is the number of units (atoms, molecules) in 1 mole of substance:
6.023 × 10²³ units per 1 mole

We have 0.883 moles.
If 1 mole has 6.023 × 10²³ molecules, 0.883 moles will have x molecules:
1 mole : 6.023 × 10²³ molecules = 0.883 moles : x

x = 6.023 × 10²³ molecules * 0.883 moles : 1 mole = 5.32 × 10²³ molecules

Suppose of nickel(II) chloride is dissolved in of a aqueous solution of potassium carbonate. Calculate the final molarity of chl

stich3 [128]

Answer: Molarity of chloride anion = 0.32 M

Note: the question is missing some values. The full question is given below;

Suppose 7.26 g of nickel(II) chloride is dissolved in 350 mL of a 0.50 M aqueous solution of potassium carbonate. Calculate the final molarity of chloride anion in the solution. You can assume the volume of the solution doesn't change when the nickel(II) chloride is dissolved in it. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Explanation:

Molarity or molar concentration is the number of moles (mol) of component per volume (liters) concentration of solution in mol/L or M

The mass of nickel (II) chloride is 7.26 g.

The volume of potassium carbonate is 350 mL = 0.35 L

The molarity of potassium carbonate solution is 0.50 M

The reaction of nickel (II) chloride and potassium carbonate is given below.

NiCl₂(aq) + KCO₃(aq) --------> KCl(aq) +NiCO₃(s)

The dissociation of nickel (II) chloride is given below.

NiCl₂ -----> Ni²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

The molar mass of nickel (II) chloride is 129.6 g/mol

The moles of nickel (II) chloride can be calculated by the formula given below;

No of moles = mass(g) / molar mass (g/mol)

No of moles = 7.26 / 129.6 = 0.056 moles

Therefore, molarity of NiCl₂ = 0.056 moles/ 0.35 L = 0.16 M

The molarity of 1 mole nickel (ii) chloride is 0.16 m and according to dissociation of nickel (II) chloride, 1 mole of nickel (II) chloride gives 2 moles of chloride anion.

Therefore, the molarity of chloride anion = 0.16 * 2 = 0.32 M
