Which of the following statements are true about whether atoms tend to gain or lose electrons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dafna11 [192]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C and D

Explanation:

Atoms with five, six or seven valance electrons gain electrons to complete the octet because it is more convenient for the atoms to gain three, two or one electron as compared to lose five, six or seven electrons. Thus atoms with five, six or seven valance electrons form negative ions by gaining electrons.

Atoms with one, two or three valance electrons lose the electrons to get complete octet because it is more convenient for the atoms to lose one two or three electrons as compared to gain the seven, six or five electrons. The atoms with one, two or three valance electrons form positive ions.

What is the mass of 3.2 moles of Sulfur?​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

820.864 g

Explanation:

1) The atomic mass of sulfur (found from the periodic table) is 32.065 amu. Use this mass to find the molar mass of Sulfur. Sulfur is S8 so the molar mass of sulfur is:

8 × 32.065 = 256.52 g/mol

2) To find the mass use the formula:

m = n × M where <em>m</em><em> </em>is the mass, <em>n</em><em> </em>is the number of moles, and <em>M</em><em> </em>is the molar mass.

3)

m \: = 3.2 \times 256.52

m = 820.864 \: g

The room temperature electrical conductivity of a semiconductor specimen is 2.8 x 104 (?-m)-1. The electron concentration is kno
Julli [10]

Answer:

7.43 × 10²⁴ m⁻³

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Conductivity of a semiconductor specimen, σ = 2.8 × 10⁴ (Ω-m)⁻¹

Electron concentration, n = 2.9 × 10²² m⁻³

Electron mobility, \mu_n = 0.14 m²/V-s

Hole mobility, \mu_p= 0.023 m²/V-s

Now,

σ = nq\mu_n+pq\mu_p

or

σ = q(n\mu_n+p\mu_p)

here,

q is the charge on electron = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

p is the hole density

thus,

2.8 × 10⁴ = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹( 2.9 × 10²² × 0.14 +  p × 0.023 )

or

1.75 × 10²³ = 0.406 × 10²² + 0.023p

or

17.094 × 10²² = 0.023p

or

p = 743.217 ×  10²²

or

p = 7.43 × 10²⁴ m⁻³

The chemical equation below shows the reaction between carbon dioxide (CO2) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH). CO2 + 2LiOH mc011-1.jp
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
From the given balanced chemical equation,
                            CO2 + 2LiOH --> Li2CO3 + H2O
we can conclude that for every 2 moles of LiOH, we need a mole of CO2. Calculate first the number of moles of CO2 by dividing the given mass by the molar mass giving us an answer of 0.58 moles. Using proportionality,
                             0.58 / x = 1 / 2
The value of x is equal to 1.16 moles.

Why would the white blood cells have an abundance of lysosomes?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. White blood cells have many lysosomes because they need to produce a lot of glucose and oxygen.

Lysosomes are found in all animal cells, but are most numerous in disease-fighting cells, such as white blood cells. This is because white blood cells must digest more material than most other types of cells in their quest to battle bacteria, viruses, and other foreign intruders.
