Metals give up electrons to become cation or anion

Chemistry

Metals usually become cations since electrons are negatively charged and when they are lost there are more protons than electrons making a positive net charge in the atom.  (cations are positively charged ions while anions are negatively charged ions)

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

The measure of the attraction that an atom has for electrons involved in chemical bonds is known as: ? electron affinity / radio
swat32
The answer is the last option. Electronegativity is the measure of the attraction that an atom has for electrons involved in chemical bonds.  It relates to covalent bonds where electrons are shared. The Pauling scale is the most used.

Chloroform (CHCl3), an important solvent, is produced by a reaction between methane and chlorine. CH4(g) + 3 Cl2(g) CHCl3(g) + 3
PIT_PIT [208]
CH₄(g) + 3 Cl₂(g) → CHCl₃(g) + 3 HCl(g)
From the equation we notice that 1 mole of methane produces 1 mole of chloroform:
16 g Methane → 119.38 g Chloroform
?   g Methane → 37.5 g Chloroform
by cross multiplication:
= (16 * 37.5) / 119.38 = 5.0 g methane

For X:-

  • No of protons:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 19-10=9protons

  • It is Fluorine.

For Y:-

  • No of protons:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 16-8=8protons

  • It is Oxygen.

Platinum crystallizes with the face-centered cubic unit cell. The radius of a platinum atom is 139 pm. Calculate the edge length
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Length = 393pm, Density = 21.3 g/cm^3.

Explanation:

From the question above, we have the following parameters or data which is going to aid in solving the above Question.

=> The radius of a platinum atom = 139 pm.

Therefore, the length can be calculated by making use of the formula given below:

Length = 2 √( 2r) = 2 × √ (2 × 139 × 10^-12m ) = 393 × 10^-10 m = 393pm.

The density can be calculated by making use of the chemical formula given below:

Density = mass ÷ volume = (195.064/ 6.02 × 10^23) ÷ (3.93 × 10^-10/ 10^-2) = 21.3 g/cm^3.
