Answer:
Mass = 99.8 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of potassium nitride = ?
Mass of nitrogen produced = 10.65 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2K₃N→ 6K + N₂
Moles of nitrogen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 10.65 g / 28 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.38 mol
Now we will compare the moles of nitrogen with potassium nitride.
N₂ ; K₃N
1 : 2
0.38 : 2×0.38 =0.76
Mass of potassium nitride:
Mass = molar mass × number of moles
Mass = 131.3 g/mol × 0.76 mol
Mass = 99.8 g
Answer:
5
Explanation:
A lithium atom with an atomic number of 3 and a charge of -2 will have a total number of electrons.
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. For a neutral atom that has not gained or lost electrons, the atomic number is the same as the number of electrons.
neutral atom: atomic number of electrons
For neutral atom of lithium, we will have 3 electrons
Now, lithium with a charge of -2 has gained two more electrons to the original 3 this now makes it 5.
ii.
It is an anion because it is negatively charged.
Negatively charged particles are called anion.
Answer: D
Explanation:
the atom of the metal loses one electron which becomes delocalised and is attragted by the positive nucleus leading to formation of metallic bond.
