Why do atoms of nonmetals form anions? Support your answer with an example.

Chemistry

Papessa [141]3 years ago
5 0
Nonmetals form negatively charged ions, or anions. They do this because they need to gain one to three electrons in order to achieve an octet of valence electrons, making them isoelectronic with the noble gas at the end of the period to which they belong.

The ion with 36 electrons, 34 protons, and 44 neutrons
Reil [10]
While the number nuclear protons as given is 34, and therefore we deal with the element selenium, there are 2 more electrons than protons, and therefore this species has an overall
2
−
charge.
We represent this selenide ion as
S
e
2
−
. Do I win 5 pounds?

Z= 34, therefore the atom is selenium

Answer:

Answer of question a is 345J.

Explanation:

In question a following is given in data:

-mass of iron (m) = 10.0 g

-temperature (ΔT) = final temperature- initial temperature= 100-25=  75 degree Celsius

-Specific Heat capacity of iron (c)= 0.46J/g°C.

Heat (Q)=?

Solution:

Formula for Heat is :

Q=m x c x ΔT

Q= 10 x 0.46 x 75

Q= 345 J.  

so, 345 joules of heat is needed to increase the temperature of 10 grams of iron.

  • From the above formula all other questions can easily be solved from the same procedure.
