Do atoms lend and borrow electrons from inner shells

1 answer:

4 0

False. They don't borrow electrons at all. They already have their respective electron affinities. This is called as electronegativity, and it's an occurence where it already has its own from its actual structure. It never borrows any electrons at all.

The number of Zn particles (atoms of Zn ) in the first sample, and Zn ions are going to be the same,
Also mass of Zn are going to be the same, because of electrons are too small, and would not have influence on mass.

Fuel-cell cars use hydrogen gas and release ______ into the atmosphere.

iogann1982 [59]

Hi!

Fuel-cell cars only release water and heat in the atmosphere.

Since they are only run by oxygen and hydrogen to produce electricity in the motor, they don't emit carbon dioxide or greenhouse gas as what other people think.

Basically, automotive engineers and scientist classified them as zero-emission.

How does the atomic mass of an element contain a mixture of isotopes and explains which is the most abundant of isotopes?

Alexxandr [17]

The relative abundances of the isotopes of an element is determined using mass spectrometry. A mass spectrometry isotope distribution graph is needed as shown in the picture. This is for the isotopes of Zirconium. The x-axis is the individual mass, while the y-axis is the relative abundance. For this example, the atomic weight of Zirconium is calculated as:

Atomic weight = 90 amu(50%) + 91 amu(11%) + 92 amu(18%) + 94 amu(19%) + 96 amu(2%) = 91.35 amu
