Chemistry

Answer: 14

Explanation:

Isotopes are elements which have same atomic number but different mass number.

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

For silicon , as the atomic number is 14, the number of protons are also 14 for all the isotopes.

Why is BrCl5 nonpolar when it's Asymmetrical? Aren't symmetrical molecules suppposed to be polar?
Svet_ta [14]
Although there exists a dipole moment in the molecule, I guess its nonpolar because the dipole is very small as the electronegativity difference between the Br and Cl is very low and so it can be neglected.

How do the bonding and antibonding MOs formed from a given pair of AOs compare to each other with respect to:
Ksenya-84 [330]

Bonding MO's have lower energy than antibonding MO's. The bonding MO's lower energy, even lower than its constituent atomic orbitals, accounts for the stability of a molecule in relation to its individual atoms. However, the sum of energy of the MO's must equal the sum of energy of the AO's.

<h3>What is atomic orbital?</h3>

An atomic orbital is a function in atomic theory and quantum mechanics that describes the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. This formula can be used to calculate the likelihood of locating any atom's electron in any given location surrounding the nucleus. The phrase atomic orbital can also refer to the actual region or place where the electron is projected to be present given the orbital's mathematical form.

Each orbital in an atom is defined by a set of values of the three quantum numbers n, l, and ml, which correspond to the energy, angular momentum, and an angular momentum vector component of the electron, respectively (magnetic quantum number).
