Identifying Characteristics of Atoms

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anon25 [30]2 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

The number of protons in an atom is the atomic number.

Mass number is the number of protons plus neutrons in an atom.

  Mass number  = number of protons + number of neutrons

Atomic number  = number of protons

Atomic number gives the symbol of the element

Number        Number      Atomic      Mass          Symbol

 Protons       neutrons     Number    Number

     A                    7                 B              15                C

     D                   E                 26             56               F

A, number of protons  = B

 Mass number  = protons + neutrons

          15  = protons + 7

          Protons  = 15 - 7  = 8

Atomic number 8 is for oxygen = C

Atomic number  = number of protons  = D = 26

Number of neutrons ;

          E =    Neutrons  = mass number - protons  = 56  - 26  = 30

Atomic number 26 is for Iron = F

Describe the region in model 1 where the highest concentration of hydrogen ion (h + ) is located
neonofarm [45]
<span>THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF HYDROGEN IONS IS LOCATED IN THE INTER-MEMBRANE SPACE. HYDROGEN IONS REACH THE INTER-MEMBRANE SPACE THROUGH PROTEIN CHANNELS EMBEDDED IN THE MITOCHONDRIAL MEMBRANE. THE MAIN FUNCTION OF INTER MEMBRANEIS OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORLATON. ENERGY IS REQUIRED TO MOVE THE HYDROGEN IONS ACROSS THE MEMBRANE BECAUSE THE HYDROGEN IONS ARE MOVING AGAINST THE CONCENTRATION GRADIENT. H+ GOES AGAINST THE CONCENTRATION GRADIENT THE USE OF THE GRADIENT TO DRIVE ATP SYNTHASE. HYDOGEN IONS DRIVE ATP SYNTHASE IN PHTOSYNTHESIS. THIS HAPPENS WHEN HYDROGEN IONS GET PUSHED ACROSS THE MEMBRANE CREATING A HIGH CONCENTRATION INSIDE THE THYLAKOID.</span>

In full detail, explain what happens during the electrolysis of a NaCl brine? Be sure to identify what is being oxidized and wha
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrolysis of aqeous sodium chloride(NaCl)

Electrolysis is a process that converts electrical energy into chemical energy.

Electrolytic processes involves three major steps:

1. Ionization of electrolyte and water

2. Migration of ions to electrodes

3. Discharge of ions at the electrodes.

For the Electrolysis of brine, we follow these three steps:

1. Ionization of the aqeous brine solution:

NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻

H₂O ⇄H⁺ + OH⁻

2. Migration of ions to the electrodes

The positive charges Na⁺ and H⁺ would both go to the cathode which is the negatively charged electrode

The negative charges Cl⁻ and OH⁻ migrates to the anode which are the positively charged electrodes. The anode is positively charged electrode.

3. Discharge of ions at the electrodes.

The preferential discharge of ions is based on the activity series and concentration of the ions.

On the activity series H is lower and it discharges preferentially to Na in the cathode:

2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂

At this electrode, the cathode, reduction occurs and H⁺ ions are reduced.

At the anode Cl⁻ and OH⁻ migrates. But Cl⁻ is discharged preferentially due to its higher concentration.

2Cl⁻ ⇄ Cl₂ + 2e⁻

This is the oxidation half and Cl is oxidized

In Chile, the deepest earthquake occurred at 61.7°W longitude at a depth of 540 km. If the rocks at the focus began subducting 1
victus00 [196]

The correct answer is - 1 cm/yr.

Alongside the western coast of South America, the Nazca plate and the South American plate are in a collision for several million years now, with the Nazca plate being the one that is subducting in this convergent plate boundary.

If the Nazca plate's focus has moved 1,000 km in the last 10 million years, than in order to get to the annual movement of the subduction we need to convert the km into cm first:

1 km = 10,000 cm

1,000 x 10,000 = 10,000,000

1,000 km = 10,000,000 cm

Than we need to divide the number of cm with the number of years:

10,000,000 / 10,000,000 = 1

And we get the result of 1 cm/yr.
