Answer:

1.   Si^{-4}

2.  Co^{+2}

Explanation:

An ion is formed when an atom that is said to be neutral gains or losses electrons.

It is thought that a negative ion (anion) is produced as it gains electrons and a positive ion (cation) is formed when it loses an electron.

Atomic number is the total number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom.

From the information

Protons = 14

electron = 18

Net Charge = no of proton - no of electron

= 14 - 18 = -4

Mass number = 14 + 15 = 29

Thus, the chemical symbol = Si^{-4}

For ion with 27 proton, 32 neutrons and 25 electrons

Net charge = 27 - 25 = +2

Mass number = 27 + 32 = 59

Thus, the chemical symbol = Co^{+2}

Question 5 why does grinding solid crystals increase the rate of dissolving for a solid solute in water? smaller crystals are mo
My name is Ann [436]
Grinding solid crystals increase the rate of dissolving for a solid solute in water because smaller crystals have more surface area. The solubility of a substance depends on the physical and chemical properties of the solute and solvent as well as the temperature, pressure and the pH of the solution. For example increase in temperature increases the rate at which a solute dissolves in a solvent.

How do i balance the first chemical reaction above?? plz plz help
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

2K +F₂→ 2KF

Explanation:

When we balance an equation, we are trying to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the arrow.

On the left side of the arrow, there is 1 K atom and 2 F atoms. On the right, there is 1 K and 1 F atom.

Since the number of K atoms is currently balanced, balance the number of F atoms.

K +F₂→ 2KF

Now, that the number of F atoms is balanced on both sides, check if the number of K atoms are balanced.

<u>Left</u>

K atoms: 1

F atoms: 2

<u>Right</u>

K atoms: 2

F atoms: 2

The number of K atoms is not balanced.

2K +F₂→ 2KF

<u>Left</u>

K atoms: 2

F atoms: 2

<u>Right</u>

K atoms: 2

F atoms: 2

The equation is now balanced.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

The options are not given, here are the options.

metal

a. Metal

b. a metalloid

c. a non-metal

d. a gas

The correct option is C.

Non metal

Explanation:

Henry should classify it as non metals because non metals are substances or elements that are poor conductors of heat and electricity they break easily I .e meaning they lack the ducibility of metals, meaning they cannot be stretched, they are brittle, they are not shiny and does not reflect light, they have high electronegativities that is they have atoms that can hold electrons to what they have.
