Atomic number = amount of protons, so 7 protons.

Because it is a neutral atom, that means that the number of protons has to be the same as the number of electrons. So, there are 7 electrons.

The mass number of an atom, 15, is the total number of protons + neutrons, so 15 - 7 = 8. There are 8 neutrons

14. All the following are necessary parts of a neutralization reaction except A. an indicator. B. a salt. C. water. D. an acid.
ValentinkaMS [17]

The correct answer is <em>B. a Salt </em><em>because The reaction of an acid and a base is called a neutralization reaction because the properties of both the acid and base are diminished or neutralized when they react. A neutralization reaction is a reaction of an acid with a base in aqueous solution to produce water and a salt, as shown by the following equation:</em>

<em>acid + base → salt + water</em>

What is the primary reason why elements form compounds?​
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

To gain stability

Explanation:

If the outermost shell is not completely filled with electrons, the element has one of the three options: gaining electrons, losing electrons or sharing electrons. By gaining or losing electrons, ionic compounds are produced. Sharing of electrons results in the formation of covalent compounds.

How many molecules are in 12.5g of water<br> (H2O)?<br> Molar mass <br> Help asap
ira [324]

Answer:

Explanation:

18.01528 g/mol. I googled this, but it would be 16 for O plus 2 for the 2 H's. 18 g/mol divided by 12.5g=1.44 mol of H20.

1.44mol*6.02*10x^{23} molecules/mol= 8.6688*10^23.

Delta S will be positive for the reaction ________. a. 2Hg (l) + O2(g) ----------&gt; 2HgO (s) b. 2NO2 (g) -------&gt; N2O4(g) c
nordsb [41]

Answer:

BaF2(s) ------> Ba2 (aq) + 2F- (aq)

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness in a system. Processes that lead to greater disorderliness in a system are said to increase the entropy of the system or lead to a positive value of ΔS.

If we consider the process, BaF2(s) ------> Ba2 (aq) + 2F- (aq), we will notice that ions were produced in solution thereby increasing the disorderliness of the system.
