How and why ions form. Give examples of both metals and no metals

Chemistry

Ion, any atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges. Positively charged ions are called cations; negatively charged ions, anions. Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the formerly bonded atoms. Examples of these processes include the reaction of a sodium atom with a chlorine atom to form a sodium cation and a chloride anion; the addition of a hydrogen cation to an ammonia molecule to form an ammonium cation; and the dissociation of a water molecule to form a hydrogen cation and a hydroxide anion.

Which statement about Fe is supported by the modern atomic theory but not John Dalton’s theory?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

One of the claims of John Dalton's atomic theory is that atom is the smallest unit of matter (which suggests that there are no particles smaller than an atom in any matter). This claim has been disproved by the modern atomic theory which established that there are particles smaller than atom (called subatomic particles). These particles are electrons, protons and neutrons.

One of the modern atomic theory was by Neils Bohr, who proposed that <u>electrons move in circular orbits around the central nucleus</u>. Thus, the electrons of iron can also be said to be present in a region of space (circular path) around the nucleus. This proves that option B is the correct option as John Dalton's theory did not even recognize the electron(s) nor the nucleus.

How many atoms are in 1.204x10^22 moles of arsenic?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

<h2>0.02 moles </h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

We have

n =  \frac{1.204 \times  {10}^{22} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }    \\  = 0.02

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.02 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

Compared to the charge of a proton the charge of an electron has
mart [117]

Answer:

Compared to the charge of proton the charge of an electron is negative.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example

The carbon have six protons and six neutrons so its atomic mass is 12 amu and atomic number is six.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Neutron and proton

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P+  

Symbol of neutron= n⁰  

Mass of proton=1.672623×10-27 Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10-27 Kg
