Atoms,which are always neutral in electric charge, contain electrons as well as protons and neutrons. An electron has an electri

cal charge of -1. If an atom has three electrons, infer how many protons it has.

Answer:

3

Explanation:

Since the atom has three electrons, it has a -3 electrical charge. Since atoms are neutral, 3 protons are needed to get the charge back to 0.

tatuchka [14]
The answer would be .5 mols because you take the total amount of grams, which is 20, and you had up the molar mass of sodium hydroxide, which would be 40. After you have this you would set this up as a stochiometry equation. With 1 mol on top you dived 20/40 to cancel out your grams. This leaves you with .5 mols

Which state of matter would be described as having highly energized, charged particles that move extremely fast
uranmaximum [27]
There are four states of matter, solid, liquid, gas and plasma. Their formation is as when solid is heated it converts into liquid, liquid on heating converts into gases and gases on heating converts into plasma.

Plasma:
           Plasma is the fourth state of matter. It is the highest energy state of matter.

Composition:
           Plasma is made up of negatively charged and positively charged particles.

Result:
           The answer to your question is Plasma.

Which statement about AHf is true?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

  • <u><em>It is positive when the bonds of the product store more energy than those of the reactants.</em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>standard enthalpy of formation</em>, <em>ΔHf</em>, is defined as the energy required to form 1 mole of a substance from its contituent elements under standard conditions of pressure and temperature.

Then, per defintion, when the elements are already at their standard states, there is not energy involved to form them from that very state; this is, the standard enthalpy of formation of the elements in their standard states is zero.

It is not zero for the compounds in its standard state, because energy should be released or absorbed to form the compounds from their consituent elements. Thus, the first choice is false.

When the bonds of the products store more energy than the those of the reactants, the difference is:

  • ΔHf =  ΔHf products - ΔHf reactants > 0, meaning that ΔHf is positive. Hence, the second statement is true.

Third is false because forming the compounds may require to use (absorb) or release (produce) energy, which means that ΔHf could be positive or negative.

Fourth statement is false, because the standard state of many elements is not liquid. For example, it is required to supply energy to iron to make it liquid. Thus, the enthalpy of formation of iron in liquid state is not zero.
