Answer:
Cadmium +p= 48
Titanium p=22
Oxygen p=8
Krypton p=36
So the answer is Cadmium which has #48 protons
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
A. The charge on an element is determined by the differences between the number of protons and electrons in an atom.
An atom will have no charges if the number of protons and electrons are the same.
- When an atom loses or gains electrons, the number of electrons will either decrease or increase
- if the number of electrons is more than the number of protons, the excess electrons is the charge on the atom. And this makes the atom become a negatively charged ion.
- if the number of electrons is lesser than the number of protons, the deficient electrons makes the atom a positively charged ion. The number of electrons by which the atom is deficient makes the atom a positively charged ion.
Charge = number of protons - number of electrons
B. Electrons form the charges they do because with the charge, they become stable like the noble gases.
The desire of every atom is to have stable electronic configuration like those of the noble gases.
A potassium atom with a configuration 2 8 8 1 will prefer to lose an electron to become an Argon atom making the ion stable.
The atomic mass would be 28.08535 amu. Multiply 27.9769 by .92297 = 25.803. Multiply 28.9765 by .046832 to get 1.357. Multiply 29.9738 by .03872 to get .925351136. Add 25.803 + 1.357 + .03872 to get 28.08535 amu
What model? can you screenshot it or send a link?
