If you were to add a proton to a neutral atom what would change

Chemistry

viktelen [127]3 years ago
8 0

It would change the charge, a neutral atom has zero charge but a proton has a positive charge.  So 0 charge + 1 positive charge = 1 positive charge.

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

  • Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

  • Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

  • Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

  • Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

  • O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.

What is a atom and what do atom do in the world ​
gayaneshka [121]

In all atoms, the number of protons and the number of electrons is always the same. The number of neutrons is very roughly the same as the number of protons, but sometimes it's rather more. The number of protons in an atom is called the atomic number and it tells you what type of atom you have.

Two solids of identical mass, A and B, are analyzed using identical calorimeters. Each calorimeter contains the same amount of w
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Specific heat of solid A is greater than specific heat of solid B.

Explanation:

In the calorimeter, as the temperature is increasing, the vibrational kinetic energy will increase and this means that additional amount of energy will be needed to increase the temperature by the same value. Therefore, we can conclude that specific heat increases as temperature increases.

Now, we are told that the final temperature of solid A's calorimeter is higher than that of B.

This means from our definition earlier, Solid A will have a higher specific heat that solid B.

Calculate the pH of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.150 mol of benzoic acid and 0.300 mol of sodium benzoate in water suffic
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer : The pH of a solution is, 4.50

Explanation : Given,

K_a=6.30\times 10^{-5}

Concentration of benzoic acid (Acid) = 0.150 M

Concentration of sodium benzoate (salt) = 0.300 M

First we have to calculate the value of pK_a.

The expression used for the calculation of pK_a is,

pK_a=-\log (K_a)

Now put the value of K_a in this expression, we get:

pK_a=-\log (6.30\times 10^{-5})

pK_a=5-\log (6.30)

pK_a=4.20

Now we have to calculate the pH of buffer.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

pH=4.20+\log (\frac{0.300}{0.150})

pH=4.50

Thus, the pH of a solution is, 4.50
