Chemistry

lisabon 2012 [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A)Protons and electrons

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

when an atom lose or gain the electron ions are formed and number of protons and electrons no longer remain the same.

For example:

An atom of sodium when lose one electron it form positive ion. The number of electrons became 10 and number of protons remain 11.

Na → Na⁺ + 1e⁻

How does the eruption of a volcano lower the atmospheric temperature?
lianna [129]
The eruption of a volcano lowers the temperature in the environment. The first time this observation was made, it was noticed that winter came aryl that year and the first snow that fell did not immediately melt on the ground. The ash and smoke from the eruption of volcanoes creates a cloud and shroud which dims the effect of the sun and the land gets less exposure to strong sunlight. This in turn results in the lowering of temperature.

Write the name of the product formed in the following synthesis reaction. <br> potassium + fluorine
balandron [24]

Answer:

potassium and fluorine both react and form potassium fluoride.

Explanation:

Synthesis reaction:

It is the reaction in which two or more simple substance react to give one or more complex product.

General reaction:

A + B → AB

For example in given potassium and fluorine reaction both react and form potassium fluoride.

Chemical reaction:

K + F₂ → KF

Balanced chemical reaction:

2K + F₂ → 2KF

The oxidation state of potassium is +1 while the oxidation state of fluorine is -1. That's why one atom of potassium combine with one atom fluorine and form potassium fluoride.
