How many protons and electrons are in a

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pie3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B  29 protons, 27 electrons

Explanation:

The given specie is copper ion:

         Cu²⁺  

We are to find the number of protons and electrons it contains.

 The number of protons is the positively charged particles in the atom.

 Electrons are the negatively charged particles in the atom.

The number of protons is the same as the atomic number

Atomic number of copper  = 29

 Number of protons  = 29

 Now;

    Charge  = Number of protons  - Number of electrons

     2  = 29  - number of electrons

     -27  = - number of electrons

 Number of electrons  = 27

What quantum number of the hydrogen atom comes closest to giving a 24-nm-diameter electron orbit?
Paraphin [41]

<em>n</em> = 15. A Bohr orbit with <em>n</em> = 15 comes closest to having a 24 nm diameter .

The formula for the radius <em>r</em> of the <em>n</em>th orbital of a hydrogen atom is

<em>r</em> = <em>n</em>^2·<em>a</em>

where

<em>a</em> = the Bohr radius = 0.0529 nm

We can solve this equation to get

<em>n</em> = √ (<em>r</em>/<em>a</em>)

If <em>d</em> = 24 nm, <em>r</em> = 12 nm.

∴ <em>n</em> = √(12 nm/0.0529 nm) = √227 = 15.1

<em>n</em> must be an integer, so <em>n</em> = 15.
