If an atom has 3 protons, 3 electrons and 2 neutrons, what is the atom's electrical charge?
babymother [125]
The atoms electrical charge would be 0. As the electrical charge is calculated by taking the number of protons and subtracting it by the number of electrons. In this case the result is 0. (3-3).

What occurs when a coordinate covalent bond is formed between nitrogen and hydrogen in the ammonium ion, NH4+?
NeX [460]
Covalent bonds are formed when electrons are shared between elements that are nonmetals. The ammonium ion, NH+4 , would have covalent bonds because both nitrogen and hydrogen are nonmetals. ... So, the bond between this particular hydrogen atom and the central nitrogen is a dative covalent bond.

How many formula units make up 24.2 g of magnesium chloride (MgCl2)?<br><br> Help!!
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Approximately 1.53 \times 10^{23} formula units (0.254\; \rm mol).

Explanation:

Refer to a modern periodic table for the relative atomic mass of magnesium (\rm Mg) and chlorine (\rm Cl):

  • \rm Mg: 24.305.
  • \rm Cl: 35.45.

In other words, the mass of 1\; \rm mol of \rm Mg atoms would be (approximately) 24.305\; \rm g.

Likewise, the mass of 1\; \rm mol of \rm Cl atoms would be approximately 35.45\; \rm g.

One formula unit of the ionic compound \rm MgCl_{2} includes exactly as many atoms as there are in the given formula. The formula mass of a compound is the mass of 1\; \rm mol of the formula units of this compound.

The formula \rm MgCl_{2} includes one \rm Mg atom and two \rm Cl atoms.

Hence, every formula unit of \rm MgCl_{2} \! would include the same number of atoms: one \rm Mg\! atom and two \rm Cl\! atoms. There would be 1\; \rm mol of \rm Mg atoms and 2\; \rm mol of \rm Cl atoms in 1\; \rm mol\! of \rm MgCl_{2} formula units.

Thus, the mass of 1\; \rm mol\! of \rm MgCl_{2} formula units would be equal to the mass of 1\; \rm mol of \rm Mg atoms plus the mass of 2\; \rm mol of \rm Cl atoms. (The mass of 1\; \rm mol\!\! of each atom could be found from the relative atomic mass of each element.)

\begin{aligned}& M({\rm MgCl_{2}}) \\ =\; & 24.305\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} + 2\times {\rm 35.45 \; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ =\; & 95.205\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

In other words, the formula mass of \rm MgCl_{2} is 95.205\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}.

Therefore, the number of formula units in m = 24.2\; \rm g of \rm MgCl_{2} would be:

\begin{aligned}n &= \frac{m({\rm MgCl_{2}})}{M({\rm MgCl_{2}})} \\ &= \frac{24.2\; \rm g}{95.205\; \rm g\cdot mol^{-1}} \\ & \approx 0.254\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

Multiple n by Avogadro's Number N_{A} \approx 6.022 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1} to estimate the number of formula units in 0.254\; \rm mol:

\begin{aligned}N &= n \cdot N_{A} \\ &\approx 0.254\; \rm mol \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1} \\ &\approx 1.53\times 10^{23}\end{aligned}.
