Explain how valence electrons can result in the creation of ions.

Physics

Brums [2.3K]3 years ago

So as you may know atoms are neutral because the number of protons (+ charge) and the number of electrons( - charge) are the same so they cancel out. When a valence electron leaves an atom it will have a +1 charge because there is one less negative than positives or there is one more positive than negatives since a negative electron left. If a valence electron is added a -1 charge because there is now one more negative than positive!!!
hope that helps!!

300 grams of ethanol is heated with 14640 Joules of energy to reach a final temperature of 30 °C. What was the initial temperatu
levacccp [35]

Answer:

10 °C

Explanation:

Applying

q = cm(t₂-t₁)............... Equation 2

Where q = heat energy, c = specific heat of ethanol, m = mass of ethanol, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = Final temperature.

Given: c = 2.44 J/g.°C,  m = 300 g, q = 14640 J, t₂ = 30°C

Substitute into equation 2 and solve for t₁

14640 = 2.44×300(30-t₁)

14640 = 732(30-t₁)

732(30-t₁) = 14640

(30-t₁)  = 14640/732

(30-t₁)  = 20

t₁ = 30-20

t₁ = 10 °C

A radar used to detect the presence of aircraft receives a pulse that has reflected off an object 5 ✕ 10−5 s after it was transm
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

7500 m

Explanation:

The radar emits an electromagnetic wave that travels towards the object and then it is reflected back to the radar.

We can call L the distance between the radar and the object; this means that the electromagnetic wave travels twice this distance, so

d = 2L

In a time of

t=5\cdot 10^{-5}s

Electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum at the speed of light, which is equal to

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

Since the electromagnetic wave travels with constant speed, we can use the equation for uniform motion ,so:

d=vt (1)

where

v=c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

t=5\cdot 10^{-5}s

d=2L, where L is the distance between the radar and the object

Re-arranging eq(1) and substituting, we find L:

L=\frac{vt}{2}=\frac{(3.0\cdot 10^8)(5\cdot 10^{-5})}{2}=7500 m

A positive and a negative charge are released from rest in vacuum. They move toward each other. As they do: A positive and a neg
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

A negative potential energy becomes more negative

Explanation:

Let the charges be - Q₁ and Q₂ . Let the distance between them be d .

Potential energy = k -Q₁x Q₂ / R

= - KQ₁ Q₂ / R

Now if the magnitude of R decreases , the magnitude of potential energy increases . So we see that the negative  potential energy becomes more negative .
