What’s the difference in the number of protons of an atom of lithium and an atom of chlorine :)) I need this answer quick

Chemistry

Katarina [22]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

14

Explanation:

The lithium atom has 3, which is its atomic number. (Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which determines the chemical properties of an element and its place in the periodic table.) The chlorine atom has 17, so if you find the difference, it would be 14.

Which element, if combined with chlorine, will have the greatest attraction for the chlorine electrons? N P As
Mumz [18]
Basically, the answer for this would be N or NITROGEN. If we combine nitrogen with chlorine, what happens is that, it can attract more chlorine electrons towards itself. The reason is that, nitrogen is considered more electronegative compared to chlorine. So best answer for this is the first option.

PH3, explain why there is a partial positive on hydrogen and partial negative on phosphorus.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Phosphorus is more electronegative than hydrogen

Explanation:

Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons towards itself thereby making a molecule to be polar. The Pauling scale is the most commonly used to measure electronegativity. Fluorine (the most electronegative element) is assigned a value of 4.0 on the Pauling's scale, and values range down to caesium and francium which are the least electronegative elements.

Electronegativity increases from left to right across the periodic table (across the period) hence, phosphorus is far more electronegative than hydrogen. Being more electronegative than hydrogen, phosphorus attracts the bonding electron pair of the P-H bond closer to itself than hydrogen. Since the electrons of the bond are closer to phosphorus than hydrogen, the phosphorus atom acquires a partial negative charge while the hydrogen atom acquires a partial positive charge.

Is gasoline evaporated a chemical change
Len [333]
No. The only thing that changed was the looks of the gasoline, not the chemical components.
