Please i need help understanding the facts about ions. and whats the answer??

Chemistry
1 answer:
Degger [83]3 years ago
6 0

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>.

1. A gas sample at a pressure of 5.00 atm has a volume of 3.00 L. If the gas pressure is changed to 760 mm Hg, what volume will
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

V₂ =  15.00 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial pressure = 5.00 atm

Initial volume = 3.00 L

Final pressure = 760 mmHg ( 760/760 = 1 atm)

Final volume = ?

Solution:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = P₁V₁ /  P₂

V₂ =  5.00 atm × 3.00 L / 1 atm

V₂ =  15.00 atm

Henry finds an element that is light blue, breaks easily in his hand, and does not reflect light. How should Henry classify the
pshichka [43]

Answer:

The options are not given, here are the options.

metal

a. Metal

b. a metalloid

c. a non-metal

d. a gas

The correct option is C.

Non metal

Explanation:

Henry should classify it as non metals because non metals are substances or elements that are poor conductors of heat and electricity they break easily I .e meaning they lack the ducibility of metals, meaning they cannot be stretched, they are brittle, they are not shiny and does not reflect light, they have high electronegativities that is they have atoms that can hold electrons to what they have.

What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure? As air
Marina86 [1]

We need to know the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure.

The relationship is: As air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.

For any gaseous substance, density of gas is directly proportional to pressure of gas.

This can be explained from idial gas edquation:

PV=nRT

PV=\frac{w}{M}RT [where, w= mass of substance, M=molar mass of substance]

PM=\frac{w}{V}RT

PM=dRT [where, d=density of thesubstance]

So, for a particular gaseous substance (whose molar mass is known), at particular temperature, pressure is directly related to density of gaseous substance.

Therefore, as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.

How does liquid carbon dioxide connect to organic chemistry <br> please I need long answers
inessss [21]
Carbon dioxide can’t exist in three states; Gas, Liquid & Solid. At normal temperatures and pressures, CO2 is colorless with a slightly pungent odor at high concentrations. If compressed and cooled to proper temperature the gas liquifies. Solid CO2, (dry ice) sublimates back to the natural gaseous state.
