A negative ion is (larger/smaller) than its parent atom. Why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Kay [80]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

When an atom attracts extra electrons it becomes a negative ion. The negative ion is larger than the original atom. The positive nucleus remains the same, with the same attractive force. However, this attractive force is now pulling on more electrons and therefore has less effect.

Or

Positive ions are formed by removing one or more electrons from the outermost region of the atom. The opposite is true of negative ions. When electrons are added to form an anion, the increased electron-electron repulsions cause the electrons to spread out more in space. Thus, anions are larger than their parent atoms.

Different kinds of wood have different densities. The density of american white oak wood is generally 0.77 g/cm3. If Jim grabs a
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

m= 29.645 g

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

density of wood = 0.77 g/cm³

volume= 38.5 cm³

mass= ?

Solution:

d= m/v

m= d × v

m= 0.77 g/cm³× 38.5 cm³

m= 29.645 g

melamori03 [73]

Answer: We do not know. We have not been given the solubility of oxygen in water at a given temperature nor have we been given the Henry's laws constant. We also do not know whether you mean 1 atmosphere of air, or 1 atmosphere of oxygen.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Compound A is succinic anhydride and B is methyl succinate (the monomethyl ester).

Structural Diagram is attached.

Explanation:

A.

Succinic anhydride appears as colorless needles or white crystalline solid. ... Succinic anhydride, also called dihydro-2, 5-furandione, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H4O3. It is the acid anhydride of succinic acid.

B.

Monomethyl succinate is a dicarboxylic acid monoester that is succinic acid in which one of the carboxy groups has been converted to its methyl ester. It is a dicarboxylic acid monoester and a hemisuccinate. ... They have the general structure RC(=O)OR', where R=fatty aliphatic tail or organyl group and R'=methyl group.
