Why is an atom regarded as electrically unstable​

Chemistry
1 answer:
meriva3 years ago
5 0

Answer: An atom can be considered unstable in one of two ways. If it picks up or loses an electron, it becomes electrically charged and highly reactive. Such electrically charged atoms are known as ions. Instability can also occur in the nucleus when the number of protons and neutrons is unbalanced.

The equilibrium constant for the chemical equation N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g) and Kp=0.174 at 243°C. Calculate the value of Kc for
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The Kc of this reaction is 311.97

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Kp = 0.174

Temperature = 243 °C

Step 2: The balanced equation

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g)

Step 3: Calculate Kc

Kp = Kc *(RT)^Δn

⇒ with Kp = 0.174

⇒ with Kc = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 Latm/Kmol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 243 °C = 516 K

⇒ with Δn = number of moles products - moles reactants  2 – (1 + 3) = -2

0.174 = Kc (0.08206*516)^-2

Kc = 311.97

The Kc of this reaction is 311.97

Why do atoms share electrons in covalent bonds??
ra1l [238]
Atoms in covalent bonds do combine so as to be stable. As covalent bond consist non metals e.g O2 in this example each atom has vacance of 2 orbitals/ electrons so shairing electrons result their stability

How many hydrogen atoms are attached to each carbon adjacent to a double bond? nurition?
larisa [96]
That depends. there are 2 possible answers.
      H
C - C = C - H gives a different answer on the right than on the left.

One the left side, the second Carbon is attached to a double bond and has but one hydrogen attached to it.

The Carbon on the right of the double bond has 2
     H
C- C = C - H
            H

I'm not sure what you should put. It's one of those things that I would repeat my argument and submit it.
