Answer:
Protons and neutrons have very similar mass, while electrons are far lighter, approximately 11800 times the mass. Protons are positively charged, neutrons have no electric charge, electrons are negatively charged. The size of the charges is the same, the sign is opposite
Explanation:
Non-metals have a larger number of outer electrons called valence electrons. Therefore, it is easier for them to "steal" valance electrons from other elements with fewer valence electrons(usually metals)
For example, Chlorine(Cl) has 7 ve-. When forming an ion it will steal one electron from a metal. and gain a charge of -1. Because the ion is NEGATIVELY charged, it will be called an anion.
Nonmetals form anions.
Vocab:
cation: Paws-itively charged ions (get it? because its a CAT ion?)
anion: negatively charged ions
Answer:
4
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows:
4Al + 3O2 --> 2(Al2O3)
Answer:
We will derive the combined gas equation from the law of Gases
Boyle's law
P∝1/V
PV=Constant
Charles law
V∝T
Avogadro's Law
V∝n
By combining these three equations we get the combined gas equation
PV=nRT
V=nRT/P
If n=1 mole
V=RT/P
By putting the value of R, T, and P in the above equation we can calculate the volume of the gas at STP.
