How does the neutron number in each compare

Chemistry
1 answer:
tester [92]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Neutrons are all identical to each other, just as protons are. Atoms of a particular element must have the same number of protons but can have different numbers of neutrons.

Explanation:

Since the vast majority of an atom's mass is found its protons and neutrons, subtracting the number of protons (i.e. the atomic number) from the atomic mass will give you the calculated number of neutrons in the atom. In our example, this is: 14 (atomic mass) – 6 (number of protons) = 8 (number of neutrons).

Which of the following describes metallic character on the periodic table? Question 1 options: A) It increases as you move right
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Metallic character decreases as you move across a period in the periodic table from left to right. This occurs as atoms more readily accept electrons to fill a valence shell than lose them to remove the unfilled shell. Metallic character increases as you move down an element group in the periodic table. This is because electrons become easier to lose as the atomic radius increases, where there is less attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons because of the increased distance between them.

Hi! I'm on the last question of my homework and I'm stuck on it and was wondering if anyone could help me
Semmy [17]
I am not sure but this is what I think

This question uses the formula connecting mass, density and volume
Which is Density= Mass/Volume

Convert the mass in g
92.5 kg = 92,500g


7.87g/ml = 92,500/ Volume
Volume= 92,500/7.87
= 11,753.5 ml

Now since we have to give the answer in liters we can just divide by 1000 and get
11.75 litres

The unknown ionic compound gave a red flame test, NR with ammonium carbonate, and a red/orange halide test. What is the unknown
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, however, the unknown compound can be inferred to be "Lithium Bromide"

Explanation:

The unknown compound firstly is said to be an ionic compound. An ionic/electrovalent compound is a compound in which it's constituent ions transfer/receive electron(s). They are mostly made of group 1 and group 7 elements. Examples include NaCl, NaF, LiF and KCl.

Also, the ion (metallic ion) that produces a red flame test colour in a flame test is the <u>Lithium ion (Li⁺).</u> Also, when dissolved in water or hexane, the only halogen that produces a red/orange colour is bromine. Hence, the unknown ionic compound can be inferred to be Lithium Bromide.
