Answer:

(4) All atoms of a given element must have the same atomic number

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

However, when we talk about the atomic number of the ion, it is not equal to the number of electrons as electron can be gained or loosed.

This is why, more appropriately, the number of the protons which are present in the nucleus of the atom is called the atomic number.

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

<u>Thus, atomic number of an element is an unique property of the element and it's atom.</u>

A 1.200 liter solution contains 35.0 grams of potassium iodide (KI). What is the molarity of this
enot [183]

Answer:

M = 0.177

Explanation:

First, we have to find the molar mass of potassium iodine (KI).

K = 39.098

I = 126.904

Now, add these values together to get the molar mass of KI

39.098 + 126.904 = 166.0028

Now, it's time to do a grams to moles conversion.

35.0 g KI * \frac{1 mol KI}{166.0028 g KI} = \frac{35.0}{166.0028} = 0.212 mol KI

Now, we can find the molarity of this solution.

Molarity (M) = \frac{mol}{L}

M = \frac{0.212 mol KI}{1.200 L} = 0.177 M

The molarity (M) of this solution is 0.177.

Is the sulfide ion (S2-) stable, neutral or both? Explan
emmainna [20.7K]

The stable ion the sulfur would form is the sulfide ion,
S

−
.
Explanation:
A neutral sulfur atom contains 16 electrons. We can know this because its atomic number is 16, which means there are 16 protons in the nucleus. Since the negative charge of the electrons cancels the charge of the protons, the sulfur atom is neutral. The electron configuration of sulfur is

. The valence shell (the 3s and 3p sublevels) contains six electrons, but it needs eight to become stable. Think of the octet rule. Therefore a sulfur atom will gain two electrons to form the sulfide anion with a charge of

Describe the step in the formation of Sodium Chloride that has the largest energy change. What happens in this step?
bezimeni [28]

Sodium reacts with chlorine to form Na+ ions and Cl- ions in spite of the fact that the first ionization energy of sodium is larger than the electron affinity of chlorine. To explain this, we need to divide the reaction between sodium and chlorine
