Which element's total number of electrons is equal to the number of core

Chemistry
1 answer:
horsena [70]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Neon (Ne)

Explanation:

The atomic number of Chlorine is seventeen and its number of valance electrons are seven, so number of core electrons will be ten.

Valance electrons;

These are the electrons which are present in put most valance shells and take part in bonding.

Core electrons:

These are the electrons present in inner to the valance shell and closer to the nucleus. These electrons do not take part in bonding.

Electronic configuration:

Cl₁₇ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

Core electrons = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ = 10

Valance electrons = 3s² 3p⁵ = 7

The number of core electrons are ten and atomic number of neon is also ten. So, the number of core electrons of chlorine will be equal to the total number of electrons of neon.

What is the mass of HF produced by three reaction of 3.0 10 to the 23 molecules of H2 with excess F2
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

It is 20. g HF

Explanation:

H2 + F2 ==> 2HF  ...  balanced equation

Since the question is asking us to find the mass of product formed, we will want to first convert the molecules of H2 into moles of H2 (we could do this at the end of the calculations, but it's just as easy to do it now).

moles of H2 present (using Avogadro's number):  

3.0x1023 molecules H2 x 1 mole H2/6.02x1023 molecules = 0.498 moles H2

From the balanced equation, we see that 1 mole H2 produces 2 moles HF.  Therefore, we can now find the theoretical mass of HF produced from 0.498 moles H2:

0.498 moles H2 x 2 moles HF/1 mol H2 = 0.996 moles HF formed.

The molar mass of HF = 20.01 g/mole, thus...

0.996 moles HF x 20.01 g/mole = 19.93 g HF = 20. g HF formed (to 2 significant figures)

Will reward brainliest<br> Explain why all arrhenius acids can be considered bronsted lowry acids
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

A bronsted lowry acid just means that it donates a proton.

An arrhenius acid dissolves in water to donate a proton

the only difference is that an arrhenius acid must dissolve in water but it still donates a proton so it is considered a bronsted lowry acid
