All are true except the statement that ions are formed by changing the number protons in an atom’s nucleus.

A neutral atom contains the same number of protons (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge).

If there are <em>more electrons than protons</em>, the atom becomes a <em>negative ion</em>.

If there are <em>fewer electrons than protons</em>, the atom becomes a <em>positive ion</em>.

The protons are in the nucleus, where we can’t easily get at them. The <em>electrons are outside the nucleus</em>, so other chemicals can easily get at them and either remove them or add to their number.

<em>Metals</em> have only a few valence electrons, so it is fairly easy to remove them and <em>form positive ions</em>.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

This question begins with something, you should know: molar mass from water is aproximately 18 g/m, so if 18 grams of water are contained in 1 mole, the 40 grams occuped 2.22 moles. As you see, opcion a is the best!

A metal X from two oxide A and B .3.oogm of A and B contain 0.72 and 1.16g of oxygen respectively.calculate the maases of metal
devlian [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to determine the mass of metal X. We can do that by interpreting the first and second statement mathematically.

Metal X can form 2 oxides (A and B).

A + B = 3g

The mass of oxygen in A is 0.72g and the mass of oxygen in B is 1.16g.

The mass of metal X in the two oxides will be the same because it's the same metal.

Thus, we represent the mass of the metal in the two oxides as 2X.

2X + 0.72 + 1.16 = 3

2X + 1.88 = 3

2X = 3 - 1.88

2X = 1.12

X = 0.56

<u>Thus, 0.56 g of the metal combines with 0.72g of oxygen in A and 1.16 g of oxygen in B.</u>

Thus, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in A is

0.56g ⇒ 0.72g

X ⇒ 1

X = 1 × 0.56/0.72

X = 0.78 g

Hence, 0.78g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for A

Also, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in B is

0.56g ⇒ 1.16g

X ⇒ 1g

X = 1×0.56/1.16

X = 0.48 g

Thus, 0.48g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for B
