It loses two electrons to become an ion.

(As Neutrons carry no charge changing them would not effect the atom so that's how you know it's the electron :) )

Need help setting the problem up
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

4.0 moles

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Volume (V) = 12L

Pressure = 5.6 atm

Temperature (T) = 205K

Gas constant (R) = 0.08206 atm.L/Kmol

Number of mole (n) =?

Using the ideal gas equation: PV = nRT, the number of mole of the gas can be obtained as follow

PV = nRT

5.6 x 12 = n x 0.08206 x 205

Divide both side by 0.08206 x 205

n = (5.6 x 12)/(0.08206 x 205)

n = 4.0 moles

Therefore, the number of mole of the gas is 4.0 moles
