The characteristics flame test color of metal ions are because of the atomic emission spectra.  

When an atom absorbs a particular wavelength radiation, the electrons within it, move from lower energy level to the higher level of energy. Such a procedure is called absorption. When this stimulated electron to come back to its ground state, it loses energy in particular color on the basis of the frequency of the absorbed radiation. Such a procedure is called emission.  

As an atom exhibit, distinct levels of energy, the level close to the nucleus possess less energy in comparison to the level, which is far from the nucleus. So, electrons move from lower energy level to the higher level by attaining particular energy, and after excitation, it comes back from high energy level to a low energy level with the emission of light.  

According to Planck's concept, there is a specific difference of energy between the two energy level, so such energy difference is quantized. Only those radiation are absorbed, which are equivalent to the difference of energy between the two levels.

What is the net charge of a nitrogen atom with 8 electrons
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

– 1

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained the following:

Electron = 8

Net charge of nitrogen =.?

Nitrogen has atomic number of 7. This also means that nitrogen has 7 proton because atomic number of an element is the equal to number of protons in the atom of the element.

Thus, we can obtain the net charge of nitrogen with 8 electrons by calculating the difference between the protons and electrons of the nitrogen atom. This can be obtained as follow:

Proton = 7

Electron = 8

Net charge = Proton – Electron

Net charge = 7 – 8

Net charge = – 1

Therefore, the net charge of the nitrogen atom with 8 electrons is – 1

Rank the following substances in order from most soluble in water to least soluble in water: methane, CH4; 2-butanol, C4H9OH; ma
inna [77]

Answer:

MgCl2 > C4H9OH > CH4 > C3H8.

Explanation:

Alkanes do not form hydrogen bonds and are insoluble in polar solvents e.g water. The hydrogen bonds between water molecules are move away from an alkane molecule and this worsens as their Carbon chain / molecular weight increases.

MgCl2 is soluble in water. Water essentially breaks down the ionic crystal lattice and the resulting solution is slightly basic.

Alcohols are generally soluble in water and this is because of the -OH group and its ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. As applied to alkanes, as the carbon chain in the alkyl group increases, the solubility decreases.

From the most soluble to the least soluble,

MgCl2 > C4H9OH > CH4 > C3H8.
