Which statement describes the charge and location of an electron in an atom?

Chemistry

Electrons carry a negative charge, and are found in orbits, or shells, around the nucleus of the atom.

NemiM [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer is: It has a negative charge and is located in orbitals around the nucleus.

The electron (symbol: e⁻) is a subatomic particle whose electric charge is negative one elementary charge.

Electrons are moving in energy levels around nucleus.

The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton.

Electrons have properties of both particles and waves.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

At l = 3, ml =+3,+2,+1,0,-1,-2,-3

What are quantum numbers?

  • Quantum numbers are used to describe where around a nucleus a particular electron can be found.
  • In any given atom, each electron can be described by four quantum numbers.
  • These are n,l,m1,ms
  • The values that each number can be are based on a set of rules.

What is a magnetic quantum number ?

  • It describes the orientation of the orbitals.
  • It is represented as ml.
  • The value of this quantum number ranges from (-l to +l).
  • When l = 2, the value of  will be -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.

Why would heating up the human body be a bad choice for causing a chemical reaction?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

The human body has a normal core temperature of around 37°C to 38°C.

Now, if it is heated up to say 39° to 40°C, fatigue will start to set in and the brain begins to tell the muscles to slow down.

If it's now heated to higher temperatures above above 41°C, the body will begin to experience heat exhaustion and therefore will start to shut down.

Due to this process, the body can't even sweat at that stage because blood flow to the skin will stops thereby making the body feel cold and clammy. Thus, chemical processes/reaction in the body will begin to be affected and the cells inside the body will start to deteriorate and thus there is now a huge risk of having multiple organ failure.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

The two compounds formed will be AgCl and NaNO₃.

We can see that this will result in a balanced equation, so the answer is Option (2).

Which element on the periodic table has physical properties most similar to the physical properties of cl
enyata [817]

Answer:

Any element with 7 electrons in the outermost shell will have similar properties. Thus other elements in the same column of the periodic table as chlorine will have similar properties. Elements in this column form what is called the Halogen series, which is composed of fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine

If the symbol X represents a central atom, Y represents outer atoms, and Z represents lone pairs on the central atom, the struct
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

XY4Z2 ----- square planar

XY5Z ------- square pyramidal

XY2Z----- bent < 120°

XY2Z3 ----- Linear

XY4Z ---- see saw

XY2Z2 ----- bent <109°

XY3Z2 ----- T shaped

XY3Z ----- Trigonal pyramidal

Explanation:

The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory ( VSEPR) gives the description of molecular geometry based on the relative number of electron pairs present in the molecule.

However, electron pairs repel each other, the repulsion between two lone pairs is greater than the repulsion between a lone pair and a bond pair which is also greater than the repulsion between two lone pairs.

The presence of lone pairs distort the bond angle and molecular geometry from the expected geometry based on VSEPR theory. Hence, in the presence of lone pairs of electron, the observed molecular geometry may be different from that predicted on the basis of the VSEPR theory, the bond angles also differ slightly or widely depending on the number of lone pairs present.

All the molecules in the question possess lone pairs, the number of electron pairs do not correspond to the observed molecular shape or geometry due to lone pair repulsion. Usually, the molecular geometry deals more with the arrangement of bonded atoms in the molecule.
