The number of positive changes in the nucleus of an atom is equal to

Chemistry

raketka [301]2 years ago

Answer:

The number of positive charges in nucleus of an atoms are equal to the atomic number and also positive charges are equal to the negative charges which are electrons in neutral atom.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Neutron and proton:

Neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example

The carbon have six protons and six neutrons so its atomic mass is 12 amu and atomic number is six.

Which statement describes the charge and location of an electron in an atom?
NemiM [27]

Answer is: It has a negative charge and is located in orbitals around the nucleus.

The electron (symbol: e⁻) is a subatomic particle whose electric charge is negative one elementary charge.

Electrons are moving in energy levels around nucleus.

The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton.

Electrons have properties of both particles and waves.

During photosynthesis, how many moles of water (H₂O) are needed to produce 150 grams of glucose
Nuetrik [128]

During photosynthesis, 5 moles of water are needed to produce 150 grams of glucose. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is photosynthesis?</h3>

It is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water.

  • Step 1: Write the balanced equation for photosynthesis.

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O ⇒ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

  • Step 2: Convert 150 g of C₆H₁₂O₆ to moles.

The molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ is 180.16 g/mol.

150 g × 1 mol/180.16 g = 0.833 mol

  • Step 3: Calculate the moles of water required to form 0.833 moles of C₆H₁₂O₆

The molar ratio of H₂O to C₆H₁₂O₆ is 6:1.

0.833 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ × 6 mol H₂O/1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ = 5.00 mol H₂O

During photosynthesis, 5 moles of water are needed to produce 150 grams of glucose. The correct option is D.

Consider a buffer solution that is 0.50 M in NH3 and 0.20 M in NH4Cl. For ammonia, pKb=4.75. Calculate the pH of 1.0 L of the so
vladimir2022 [97]
You have 0.50 mol of NH3 and 0.20 mol of NH4+ to start (NH4Cl dissolves completely), given the molarity and 1.0 L solution.

30.0 mL of 1.0 M HCl is 0.0300 mol of HCl. This will react with the NH3 to produced 0.030 mol of NH4+.

You now have 0.47 mol NH3 and 0.23 mol NH4+. Now use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation to calculate your pH. The equation says to use concentration of acid and base, but you can just use the moles of them because it doesn’t make a difference.

pH = pKa + log(base/acid)

pKa = 14 - pKb = 14 - 4.75 = 9.25

pH = 9.25 + log(0.47/0.23) = 9.56
