Remark
The short Answer is 6. That's why the ion has a charge of minus 2. Oxygen is doing it's best to have its outer ring have 8 electrons which is the number of outer electrons contained in the outer ring of the Noble Gas Neon.
Answer 6.
Answer:
The element is Rubidium . The ion only loss one electron to make the electron 36 . But the proton number(atomic number) is 37. The chemical compound should RbBr
X = Rubidium(Rb)
Explanation:
The ion of element X has a mass number of 85 and electron of 36. An elements is charge if it either loss or receive electron. Base on the charge the ion has loss electron. Bromine usually possess a negatively charge ion. That makes the X electron a positively charge ion.
proton number = Atomic number
Proton number = electron number when not charged
Mass number = proton number + neutron number
Proton is usually same number with the electron to make the element neutral. But when the atom is charge the atom usually loss or gain electron.
In this case, the atom X loss one electron thereby reducing the electron number to 36 . Recall, the electron is equal to proton only if the atom is uncharged. This means the proton number should be 37 as one electron was loss.
Element with proton number(atomic number) of 37 is rubidium. It is an alkali metal that is very reactive.
Answer:
Kinetic energy of electron = -E₂ = 3.4 ev
Kinetic energy of electron = -E₄ = 0.85 ev
Explanation:
In case of hydrogen atom energy associated with nth state is,
En = -13.6/n²
For n = 2
E₂ = -13.6 / 2²
E₂ = -13.6/4
E₂ = -3.4 ev
Kinetic energy of electron = -E₂ = 3.4 ev
For n = 4
E₄ = -13.6 / 4²
E₄ = -13.6/16
E₄ = -0.85 ev
Kinetic energy of electron = -E₄ = 0.85 ev
Answer:

OH
- The developed structural formula is also attached.
Explanation:
The IUPAC name, <em>2-hydroxypropanoic acid</em>, lets you predict the structural formula for <em>lactic acid</em>.
- <em>2-hydroxy</em> means that there is a OH functional group attached to the second carbon atom of the chain.
- <em>Propan</em> prefix means that the molecule has 3 carbon atoms.
- <em>oic</em> suffix means that it is a carboxylic acid, this is it contains the COOH functional group.
Hence, in conclusion the structural form of lactic acid is:
|
OH
I used the superscripts just to show the number of the carbon atom in the chain.
The formal structural formula does not contain such superscripts it is just:
|
OH
A more developed structural formula will show the distribution of the atoms in the space. I have also attached a picture with the developes structural formula.
Answer:
a) The molecule is always polar.
Explanation:
The molecule is always polar because of two reasons:
- all the bonds are polar due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon and hydrogen & carbon and chlorine.
AND IMPORTANTLY
- The molecule is asymmetrical meaning that the dipoles cannot cancel each other out (like they do in methane or carbon dioxide for example) so the net effect is a polar molecule.
