The traditional calcium atom has twenty protons and twenty electrons making it neutral.
The calcium in the pic is a calcium ion so the number of protons and electrons are not equivalent.
Since it's 2+ that means the ion is positively charged and for that to happen electrons are away.
So 20-2=18
There are 18 electrons
Answer:
The percent by mass of water in this crystal is:
Explanation:
This exercise can be easily solved using a simple rule of three where the initial weight of the hydrated crystal (6,235 g) is taken into account as 100% of the mass, and the percentage to which the mass of 4.90 g corresponds (after getting warm). First, the values and unknown variable are established:
- 6,235 g = 100%
- 4.90 g = X
And the value of the variable X is found:
- X = (4.90 g * 100%) / 6,235 g
- X = approximately 78.6%.
The calculated value is not yet the percentage of the water, since the water after heating the glass has evaporated, therefore, the remaining percentage must be taken, which can be calculated by subtraction:
- Water percentage = Total percentage - Percentage after heating.
- <u>Water percentage = 100% - 78.6% = 21.4%</u>

Rate Law => Rate =k[A][B]ˣ
As shown in expression, A & B are included, C is not.
Direct electron transfer from a a singlet reduced species to a triplet oxidizing species is quantum-mechanically forbidden.
<h3><u>Transfer from singlet to triplet:</u></h3>
- Either an excited singlet state or an excited triplet state will occur when an electron in a molecule with a singlet ground state is stimulated (through radiation absorption) to a higher energy level.
- All electron spins in a molecule electronic state known as a singlet are coupled.
- In other words, the ground state electron and the stimulated electron's spin are still coupled (a pair of electrons in the same energy level must have opposite spins, per the Pauli exclusion principle).
- The excited electron and ground state electron are parallel in a triplet state because they are no longer coupled (same spin).
- It is less likely that a triplet state would arise when the molecule absorbs radiation since excitation to a triplet state necessitates an additional "forbidden" spin transfer.
