Protons = atomic number = 11
electrons = proton number = 11
neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 23-11 = 12

The element chlorine has an atomic weight of 35.5 and consists of two stable isotopes chlorine-35 and chlorine-37. The isotope c
mylen [45]

Answer:

The answer is 37amu

Explanation:

We are given:

Chlorine-35: atomic mass  =35 amu  and percent abundance  =75.5% ≡ 0.755

Chlorine-37: atomic mass  = x amu  and percent abundance  =24.5% ≡ 0.25

From table, relative atomic mass of Chlorine is 35.5

⇒(0.755 × 35) + (24.5 × x) = 35.5

26.402 + 24.5x = 35.5

∴ x = 9.075 ÷ 24.5 = 0.37 ≡ 37.

∴ mass of Chlorine 37 = 37amu

Compared to a swimming pool filled with water, a hot cup of coffee has higher temperature, but less thermal energy
Julli [10]
Thermal energy equation is;
    Q = mcΔθ

Q = Thermal energy
m = mass
c = specific heat
Δθ = Temperature difference

the hot cup of coffee has a higher temperature. But the mass of coffee is very low compared to the mass of water in swimming pool. The maximum temperature for coffee only can go up to 100 ⁰C since the boiling point of water is 100 ⁰C. But the mass of water in swimming pool is very large and the thermal enegy is very high compared to the coffee cup due to that reason.

A metal atom loses electrons from its outermost energy level and acquires a...... Charge. These electrons join a nonmetal atom.
sp2606 [1]

Answer : A metal atom loses electrons from its outermost energy level and acquires a Positive Charge. These electrons join a nonmetal atom. The ionic compound formed because of this transfer of electrons is electrically Neutral.

Explanation :

All the elements try to acquire octet state by gaining or losing electrons. For metals, the number of valence electrons are less and it is easier to lose these electrons.

When electrons are lost, the number of protons become more than the electrons. This creates an excess of positive charge. As a result the species becomes positively charged and is known as cation.

During formation of ionic bond, metals always form a positive ion (cation) by losing electrons. These electrons are accepted by the nonmetals and they become negatively charged. A negatively charged ion is known as anion and nonmetals always form an anion.

These are attracted to each other due to the opposite charges present on them. In an ionic compound they balance the charges on each other making the compound neutral.

From the above discussion, we can fill in the blanks as follows.

A metal atom loses electrons from its outermost energy level and acquires a Positive Charge. These electrons join a nonmetal atom. The ionic compound formed because of this transfer of electrons is electrically Neutral.
