Explain why a potassium ion is larger than a calcium ion.​

Chemistry
1 answer:
VMariaS [17]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

One other factor is the number of electrons removed. The potassium atom has one electron removed to for the corresponding ion, while calcium loses two electrons. The addition of electrons always results in an anion that is larger than the parent atom.

Which is an example of a base?a(lemon juice b(baking soda c(an insolator d( water
bija089 [108]

Answer:

b) Baking soda

Explanation:

Baking soda is sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO₃.

It reacts with water according to the equation

NaHCO₃ + H₂O ⇌ H₂CO₃ + NaOH

Thus, baking soda is a base because it increases the concentration of hydroxide ions in water.

<em>Water</em> is <em>neutral</em>.

<em>Lemon juice</em> is an <em>acid</em> because it contains citric acid.

An <em>insulator </em>is a substance that does not conduct electricity. Insulators are <em>neither acidic nor basic</em>.

1. An atom of an elephant has atomic mass of 39 and has number of neutrons as 20 calculate protons number.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

1) Let us recall that;

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Where;

Number of protons = ?

Number of neutrons =20

Mass number =39

Number of protons = mass number - number of neutrons

Mass of protons =39 - 20= 19 protons

2) Atomic number = 13

Number of neutrons =14

Then the mass number =13 +14 =27

The symbol of the element is 27X13

The number of protons= the number of electrons =13

The atomic number is the same as the proton number =13
