If an Atom has 12 Electrons then if it is a Neutral atom then the Atomic Number of the Atom will be 12.

The Electronic Configuration of Element with Atomic Number 12 will be :

⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

We can notice from the Electronic Configuration that :

Given atom has 2 electrons in the 1st shell.

⇒ In the Shell : n = 1

   Number of Electrons = 2

In the similar way : Number of Electrons in 2nd shell = 2 + 6 = 8

⇒ In the Shell : n = 2

   Number of Electrons = 8

In the similar way : Number of Electrons in 3rd shell = 2

⇒ In the Shell : n = 3

   Number of Electrons = 2

From top to bottom in most groups of elements atomic radii tend to
kogti [31]
As you go down a group on the periodic table, atomic radii tend to increase because elements with larger atomic numbers have more occupied electron levels which take up more space surrounding the nucleus.

I hope this helps.

If 25 mol of C8H18 are available, how many mol of CO2 can be produced
Nady [450]

Answer:

200 mol

Explanation:

2C8H18+25O2=16CO2+18H2O

2 mol → 16 mol

25 mol → X mol

X=25×16÷2=200

Design a test to determine whether thorium-234 also emits particles. First, explain how Rutherford’s experiment measured positiv
liubo4ka [24]

The characteristics of the α and β particles allow to find  the design of an experiment to measure the ²³⁴Th particles is:

  • On a screen, measure the emission as a function of distance and when the value reaches a constant, there is the beta particle emission from ²³⁴Th.
  • The neutrons cannot be detected in this experiment because they have no electrical charge.

In Rutherford's experiment, the positive particles directed to the gold film were measured on a phosphorescent screen that with each arriving particle a luminous point is seen.

The particles in this experiment are α particles that have two positive charge and two no charged is a helium nucleus.

The test that can be carried out is to place a small ours of Thorium in front of a phosphorescent screen and see if it has flashes, with the amount of them we can determine the amount of particle emitted per unit of time.

Thorium has several isotopes, with different rates and types of emission:

  • ²³²Th emits α particles, it is the most abundant 99.9%
  • ²³⁴Th emits β particles, exists in small traces.

In this case they indicate that the material used is ²³⁴Th, which emits β particles that are electrons, the detection of these particles is more difficult since it has one negative charge, it has much lower mass, but they can travel further than the particles α, therefore, for what type of isotope we have, we can start measuring at a small distance and increase the distance until the reading is constant. At this point all the particles that arrive are β, which correspond to ²³⁴Th.

Neutron detection is much more difficult since these particles have no charge and therefore do not interact with electrons and no flashing on the screen is varied.

In conclusion with the characteristics of the α and β particles we can find the design of an experiment to measure the ²³⁴Th particles is:

  • On a screen, measure the emission as a function of distance and when the value reaches a constant, there is the β particle emission from ²³⁴Th.
  • The neutrons cannot be detected in this experiment because they have no electrical charge.
