Electrons are valence and free moving so they take place in charge transfer
Answer:
Neutrons.
Explanation:
Isotopes can be defined as the atom of an element that has the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. This ultimately implies that, the isotopes of an element have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different atomic mass (number of nucleons).
The isotope of an element is denoted by 
Where; X is the symbol of the element.
A is the atomic mass or number of nucleons.
Z is the atomic number or number of protons.
<em>Therefore, the number of neutrons = A - Z</em>
<em>Isotopes of carbon differ with respect to the number of neutrons.</em>
<em>Basically, there are three (3) Isotopes of Carbon and these are;</em>
<em>1. Carbon-12: it has an atomic mass of 12 with 6 numbers of proton and neutron respectively. </em>
<em>2. Carbon-13: it has an atomic mass of 13 with 6 numbers of proton and 7 numbers of neutron. </em>
<em>3. Carbon-14: it has an atomic mass of 14 with 6 numbers of proton and 8 numbers of neutron. </em>
Answer:
Average atomic mass = 51.9963 amu
Explanation:
Given data:
Abundance of Cr⁵⁰ with atomic mass= 4.34%
, 49.9460 amu
Abundance of Cr⁵² with atomic mass = 83.79%, 51.9405 amu
Abundance of Cr⁵³ with atomic mass =9.50%, 52.9407 amu
Abundance of Cr⁵⁴ with atomic mass = 2.37%, 53.9389 amu
Average atomic mass = 51.9963 amu
Solution:
Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass +....n) / 100
Average atomic mass = (4.34×49.9460)+(83.79×51.9405) +(9.50×52.9407)+ (2.37×53.9389) / 100
Average atomic mass = 216.7656 + 4352.0945 + 502.9367 +127.8352 / 100
Average atomic mass = 5199.632 / 100
Average atomic mass = 51.9963 amu
Answer:
Explanation:
Actinoids are the series have 15 element in the periodic table.
Chemistry of actinoids are complicated because of the following reasons.
- Their outer most orbitals are 6d and 7s but most of the electrons resides in 5f orbitals. These orbitals are most exposed to environment and incoming electron picked up by 5f orbital instead of 6d or 7s orbitals.
- They are radioactive elements that couldn't be handle in normal condition to study their properties.
- Their f-orbital can accommodate 14 electrons and they have many variable oxidation state.
- 5d electron donot contribute in the formation of chemical bonds.
- They have a very strong tendency to make complexes
- Most of the actinoides are artificial and are in very minute in amount. they are in very less quantity that is amounts found in nano-grams so are more expensive too and
- As they are radioactive so their half life is very short and in very less time the decay occur so couldn't be study as upon decay their actual properties changed.
Due to all the above reasons it make difficult for a chemist to study about the chemical properties of actinoids.
