Westkost [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The number of electron in neutral atom of nitrogen are 7.

Atomic mass = 14 amu

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.

The number of electron in neutral atom of nitrogen are 7.

Thus its atomic number is also 7.

Atomic mass = number of proton + number of neutron

Atomic mass = 7 + 7

Atomic mass = 14 amu

two drops of mercury on a flat surface are rolled towards each other. When they make contact with each other they fuse to form o
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:1) It is due to large cohesive force acting between the molecules of mercury that the droplets of mercury when brought in contact pulled together to form a bigger drop in order to make potential energy minimum. The temperature of this bigger drop increases since the total surface area decreases.  

2) A spherical shape has the minimum surface area to volume ratio of all geometric forms. When two drops of a liquid are brought in contact, the cohesive forces between their molecules coalesce the drops into a single larger drop. This is because, the volume of the liquid remaining the same, the surface area of the resulting single drop is less than the combined surface area of the smaller drops. The resulting decrease in surface energy is released into the environment as heat.

Which property of chlorine explains why it is likely to form a compound with an alkali metal
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

a. It will accept one electron to complete its outer shell.

Explanation:

Chlorine is in Group 17, so it has <em>seven valence electrons</em>, one short of a complete outer shell.

Thus, it will accept an electron from sodium to complete its outer shell.
