Answer:
No because it is stayed that way and you can't define them differently.
Explanation:
Metals are the species which readily lose electrons in order to attain stability. This electron lost by the atom is actually present in its outermost shell which is also known as valence shell.
Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom.
When we move across a period from left to right then there occurs a decrease in atomic size of the atoms. Therefore, ionization energy increases along a period.
But when we move down a group then there occurs an increase in atomic size of the atoms due to addition of number of electrons in the atoms. Hence, ionization energy decreases along a group.
Thus, we can conclude that metals have low ionization energies and readily share their valence or outer electrons with each other to form an electron sea. These electrons are delocalized or shared among all the atoms that are bonded together and can therefore move freely throughout the metal structure.
Answer: An atom with 6 protons, 5 electrons, and 7 neutrons
Explanation: In this case, neutrons do not matter as they have a charge of 0, or no charge. A proton has a charge of +1 and an electron has a charge of -1. Since there are 6 protons, the total charge of the protons would be +6. Since there are 5 electrons the total charge of the electrons would be -5. +6 - 5 would result in a charge of +1. This means that this atom would have an overall charge of + 1. Basically, if there is one more proton than electron, then the overall charge of the atom will be +1 but if there is one more electron than proton, then the overall charge of the atom will be -1.

Answer:</h3>
Chlorine gas (Cl₂)
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- According to the Graham's law of diffusion, the diffusion rate of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its density or molar mass.
- Therefore, a lighter gas will diffuse faster at a given temperature compared to a heavy gas.
- Consequently, the heavier a gas is then the denser it is and the slower it diffuses at a given temperature and vice versa.
In this case we are given gases, CI₂
, H₂,He and Ne.
- We are required to identify the gas that will diffuse at the slowest rate.
- In other words we are required to determine the heaviest gas.
Looking at the molar mass of the gases given;
Cl₂- 70.91 g/mol
H₂- 2.02 g/mol
He - 4.00 g/mol
Ne- 20.18 g/mol
Therefore, chlorine gas is the heaviest and thus will diffuse at the slowest rate among the choices given.
Answer:
1. The correct option is;
c. maintains charge balance in the cell
2. The correct option is;
c. +3.272 V
Explanation:
The aqueous solution in a galvanic cell is the electrolyte which is a ionic solution containing that permits the transfer of ions between the separated compartment of the galvanic cell such that the overall system is electrically neutral
Therefore, the aqueous solution maintains the charge balance in the cell
2. Here we have;
B₂ + 2e⁻ → 2B⁻ Ecell = 0.662 V
A⁺ + 1e⁻ → A Ecell = -1.305 V
Hence for the overall reaction, we have;
2A + B₂ → 2AB gives;
(0.662) - 2×(-1.305) = +3.272 V.
