What is the average atomic mass!?

Why does it take so much heat and pressure to create helium and other elements?

ehidna [41]

Answer:

To break down the nucleus of an atom

Explanation:

Remember to change from one element to another, is necessary to add protons, neutrons and electrons,in most of the cases.

The take an electron from an atom you need certain energy, but they are in the outside part of the atom so is not as much energy as the one is necessary to take one neutron or proton from the inside part of an atom.

In this way, is a must to have a combination of pressure and heat to destabilize an atom and take some of this subatomic particles.

Need help asap with this chemistry if someone could help me

Burka [1]

Answer:

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

Structure Number Two would likely be the most stable structure.

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

The N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion. See explanation.

Explanation:

When calculating the formal charge for an atom, the assumption is that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally between the two bonding atoms. The formula for the formal charge of an atom can be written as:

$\text{Formal Charge} \\ = \text{Number of Valence Electrons in Element} \\ \phantom{=}-\text{Number of Chemical Bonds} \\\phantom{=} - \text{Number of nonbonding Lone Pair Electrons}$ .

For example, for the N atom in structure one of the first question,

N is in IUPAC group 15. There are 15 - 10 = 5 valence electrons on N.
This N atom is connected to only 1 chemical bond.
There are three pairs, or 6 electrons that aren't in a chemical bond.

The formal charge of this N atom will be $5 - 1 - 6 = -2$ .

Apply this rule to the other atoms. Note that a double bond counts as two bonds while a triple bond counts as three.

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

In general, the formal charge on all atoms in a molecule or an ion shall be as close to zero as possible. That rules out Structure number one.

Additionally, if there is a negative charge on one of the atoms, that atom shall preferably be the most electronegative one in the entire molecule. O is more electronegative than N. Structure two will likely be favored over structure three.

Similarly,

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

Assuming that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally (which is likely not the case,) the nitrogen atom in this molecule will carry a positive charge. By that assumption, it would attract an anion.

Note that in reality this assumption seldom holds. In this ion, the N-H bond is highly polarized such that the partial positive charge is mostly located on the H atom bonded to the N atom. This example shows how the formal charge assumption might give misleading information. However, for the sake of this particular problem, the N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion.

g 2BrO3- + 5SnO22-+ H2O5SnO32- + Br2+ 2OH- In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from to . How many electron

Archy [21]

Answer:

In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from 2+ to 4+.

10 moles of electrons are transferred in the reaction

Explanation:

Redox reaction is:

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻

SnO₂²⁻ → SnO₃²⁻

Tin changes the oxidation state from +2 to +4. It has increased it so this is the oxidation from the redox (it released 2 e⁻). We are in basic medium, so we add water in the side of the reaction where we have the highest amount of oxygen. We have 2 O on left side and 3 O on right side so we add 1 water on the right and we complete with OH⁻ in the opposite side to balance the H.

SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O <u>Oxidation</u>

BrO₃⁻ → Br₂

First of all, we have unbalance the bromine, so we add 2 on the BrO₃⁻. We have 6 O in left side and there are no O on the right, so we add 6 H₂O on the left. To balance the H, we must complete with 12OH⁻. Bromate reduces to bromine at ground state, so it gained 5e⁻. We have 2 atoms of Br, so finally it gaines 10 e⁻.

6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ → Br₂ + 12OH⁻ <u>Reduction</u>

In order to balance the main reaction and balance the electrons we multiply (x5) the oxidation and (x1) the reduciton

(SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O) . 5

(6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ → Br₂ + 12OH⁻) . 1

5SnO₂²⁻ + 10OH⁻ + 6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ → Br₂ + 12OH⁻ + 5SnO₃²⁻ + 10e⁻ + 5H₂O

We can cancel the e⁻ and we substract:

12OH⁻ - 10OH⁻ = 2OH⁻ (on the right side)

6H₂O - 5H₂O = H₂O (on the left side)

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻

Consider four elements from Group 7A: fluorine in the second period, chlorine in the third period, bromine in the fourth period,

lina2011 [118]

<span>Out of the possible answers for this question, fluorine in the second period is correct. Of the four elements fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, fluorine has the largest first ionization energy, with a Enthalpy number of 1681.0. Of all the elements, helium has the highest first ionization energy figure.</span>

A lithium atom has three protons, three neutrons, and three electrons. what is the overall charge on this atom? a–3 b 0 c 1 d 3

fredd [130]

Lithium atomic number = 3

Li atom has 3 protons,3 electrons.Then it has no charge.

So the charge of Li atom here is zero.

<u>Option b: 0 is the right answer.</u>
