When a 235 92U 92235U nucleus is bombarded by neutrons (10n01n) it undergoes a fission reaction, resulting in the formation of t

wo new nuclei and neutrons. The following equation is an example of one such fission process: 235 92U+10n→AZBa+9436Kr+310n 92235U+01n→ZABa+3694Kr+301n Enter the isotope symbol for the barium (BaBa) nucleus in this reaction. Express your answer as an isotope.

Answer:

139/56 Ba

Explanation:

In writing nuclear equations, there must be a balance of the mass and charge on both sides of the reaction equation. That is, the sum of masses on the lefthand side of the nuclear reaction equation must equal the sum of masses on the righthand side of the nuclear reaction equation. Similarly, the charges on the lefthand side of the nuclear reaction equation must equal the sum of the charges on the right hand side of the nuclear reaction equation.

Hence, the isotope of barium formed in the equation mentioned in the question is 139/56 Ba.

calcium has atomic number of 20 how many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding
Lelu [443]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.

If there were only 4 protons, but the number of electrons remained at 6, what would the charge of this atom be? please help!!
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Negatively charged

Explanation:

It could be an ion too. To balance the electron shell it could lose 1 or 2 electrons. If it is not an ion it won't lose atoms to balance the shells.

Which substance can not be decomposed by a chemical change?
just olya [345]
The answer is A. Ne. You can separate the elements in the other three choices through chemical changes (dissociation, ionization, electrolysis, etc.), but in order to separate the components of Ne, you would need a nuclear reaction (to decompose the nucleus) or a physical change (to strip the nucleus of its electron cloud).
