Answer:

If the atom has more electrons than protons, it is a negative ion or ANION. If it has more protons than electrons, it is a positive ion.

Explanation:

Positive ions are typically metals or act like metals. Many common materials contain these ions. Mercury is found in thermometers, for instance, and aluminum is a metal that is found in a surprising amount of things.

What is the volume of 4.78g of O2 gas at STP?

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Explanation:

The trick here is to realize that if you know the volume of a gas at STP, you can use the fact that

mole of any ideal gas occupies

22.7 L

under STP conditions to calculate how many moles of gas you have in your sample.

Under STP conditions:

1 mole of an ideal gas = 22.7 L

−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−

In your case, you know that your sample of gas occupies

2.28 L

under STP conditions, which are currently defined as a pressure of

100 kPa

and a temperature of

∘

This means that your sample will contain

2.28

0.10044 moles gas

Now, the molar mass of the gas is the mass of exactly

mole of the gas. In your case, you know that you get

3.78 g

for every

0.10044

moles, which means that you have

⋅

3.78 g

37.6 g

Since this is the mass of

mole of gas, you can say that the molar mass of the gas is

molar mass = 37.6 g mol

Describe two advantages and two disadvantages of building your 3D model with modeling clay. (5 points)

marishachu [46]

Answer:

A model or simulation is only as good as the rules used to create it. It is very difficult to create an entirely realistic model or simulation because the rules are based on research and past events. The main disadvantage of simulations is that they aren't the real thing.

Chlorite anion was exposed to strong radiation and had 2 successive electrons removed, creating a chlorite cation. What is the m

katrin [286]

Answer:

bent

Explanation:

The chlorite ion has been pictured in the image attached with its two main resonance contributors.

The ion has four regions of electron density as shown. On the basis of the VSEPR theory, we expect a tetrahedral geometry.

However, the ion is bent due to the effect of the lone pairs on chlorine which is the central atom in the ion. This distorts the bond angle of the ion hence the ion has a bent molecular geometry.
