A neutral atom of Cl-37 has

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ostrovityanka [42]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

17 protons, 20 neutrons, and 17 electrons​.

Explanation:

A periodic table can be defined as the standard arrangement of chemical elements by atomic number, electronic configuration and chemical properties in a tabular form.

Generally, a proper representation of the mass number and atomic number of chemical elements is key and very important in chemistry.

Furthermore, as a rule, it should be noted that the mass number (nucleon number) is always larger than the atomic number(number of proton).

The mass number of this neutral atom of Cl-37 is 37 and we know that the atomic number (number of protons) of chlorine is 17. Also, the atomic number of an element is equal to the number of its electrons.

A neutral atom of Cl-37 has 17 protons, 20 neutrons, and 17 electrons.

Hence, a neutral atom of Cl-37 can be identified based on its number of protons because it represent its atomic number, which is what is used to differentiate an atom of an element from the atom of another chemical element.

Which of the following statements does NOT describe the anomeric carbon? A. This carbon is attached to two oxygens. B. This carb
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The answer is E. All of the statements describe the anomeric carbon.

Explanation:

When a sugar switches from its open form to its ring form, the carbon from the carbonyl (aldehyde if it is an aldose, or a ketone in the case of a ketose) suffers a nucleophilic addition by one of the hydroxyls in the chain, preferably one that will form a 5 or 6 membered ring after the reaction.

As such, the anomeric carbon will have two oxygens attached (The original one and the one that bonded when the ring closed).

It will be chiral, given that it has 4 different groups attached. (-OR,-OH,-H and -R, where R is the carbon chain).

The hydroxyl group can be in any position (Above of below the ring), depending on with side the addition took place. (See attachment)

It is the carbon of the carbonyl in the open-chain form of the sugar, because it is the only one that can react with the Hydroxyls.

The balanced reaction is 3 Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g )  →  Ca 3 N 2 ( s ).

<u>Explanation</u>:

A chemical equation is said to be balanced when the total number of atoms present on the reactants side is equal to the total number of atoms present on the product side.

The unbalanced chemical equation is as follows,

                             Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g )  →  Ca 3 N 2 ( s )

To balance this equation, you need to look at how many atoms of each element are present on each side of the chemical equation.

 Calcium has  1  atom on the reactant and  3  on the products side. To balance the reaction we need to multiply the calcium atom by  3  on the reactants side.

                            3 Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g )  →  Ca 3 N 2 ( s )    

Now  Nitrogen has a coefficient of  2  on both sides of the reaction. Hence the balanced chemical equation will thus be

                              3 Ca ( s ) + N 2 ( g )  →  Ca 3 N 2 ( s )

Could someone explain what oxidation numbers are and what these questions are asking of me?
Oxana [17]

The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The oxidation number of an atom is the charge that atom would have if the compound was composed of ions. 1. The oxidation number of an atom is zero in a neutral substance that contains atoms of only one element. The oxidation number of simple ions is equal to the charge on the ion.

The oxidation number of a mono atomic ion equals the charge of the ion. The oxidation number of H is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electro negative elements. The oxidation number of O in compounds is usually -2, but it is -1 in peroxides. The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.
