Describe, in terms of electrons, the difference between a calcium atom and a calcium ion

Chemistry
1 answer:
DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago
3 0

The Calcium atom has 2 valence electrons but a Calcium ion will have no electrons because it is a cation ion. Meaning that there are more protons than electrons. Also, the normal calcium symbol is Ca but the calcium ion is Ca²⁺

I hope this wasn't too late

Why would a scientist want to replicate another scientist's experiment?
choli [55]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<u>A scientist B might want to replicate the experiment of another scientist A in order to assess the claims made by scientist A.</u> In other words, replication of the experiment of another scientist is done to see if a similar outcome would be arrived at or there would be variations.

<em>The claims made by a scientist while reporting the outcome of a particular experiment must be reproducible by another scientist under similar conditions. Otherwise, the claims are said to be false.</em>

If you want to prepare 80.0 mL of 4.00M acid ,How many mL of 12.4 M HCl are required ?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

M_{A}V_{A}=M_{B}V_{B}\\(80.0)(4.00)=V_{B}(12.4)\\V_{B}=\frac{(80.0)(4.00)}{12.4} \approx \boxed{25.8 \text{ mL}}

Why is the temperature needed to freeze ocean water lower than the temperature needed to freeze the surface of a freshwater lake
shepuryov [24]
Ocean water freezes just like freshwater, but at Lower temperature. Fresh water freezes At 32°F but see water freezes at about 28.4°F because of the salt in it it can be melted down to use as drinking water

If 2 CH3OH + 3 O2 -&gt; 2CO2 + 4 H2O was carried out in the laboratory and 219 g of water was produced, what would the percent y
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Percent yield = 84.5 %

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of methanol = 229 g

Actual yield of water = 219 g

Percent yield of water = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2CH₃OH + 3O₂  →  2CO₂  + 4H₂O

Number of moles of methanol:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 229 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 7.2 mol

Now we will compare the moles of water with methanol.

                        CH₃OH         :            H₂O

                            2               :               4

                           7.2             :           4/2×7.2 = 14.4 mol

Mass of water:

Mass = number of moles × molae mass

Mass = 14.4 mol × 18 g/mol

Mass = 259.2 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield = 219 g / 259.2 g × 100

Percent yield = 84.5 %

Fynjy0 [20]
The change in the standard Gibbs free energy (ΔGº) for the dissociation of nitrous acid (HNO2) at 298 K is 19.09 kJ. If the pH of the solution after equilibrium is reached is 1.30 and the NO2 – concentration at equilibrium is 0.00060 M. What is the equilibrium concentration of HNO2? Hint: Use pH to determine the equilibrium concentration of H+ .
HNO2(aq) H + (aq) + NO2 – (aq)
