How do you find how many electrons are in a atom?

Chemistry
1 answer:
seropon [69]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

To determine how many total electrons there are, add the amount of charge to the atomic number. In this case, there are fewer protons than electrons. For example, N 3- has a -3 charge which means it has 3 more electrons than a neutral nitrogen atom. Nitrogen’s atomic number is 7, therefore this ion has 10 electrons.

Briefly explain why the bulk temperature of the water remains low (at room temperature)
elena55 [62]
If the humidity of the room is low, the water that contacts the air directly could evaporate and takes some energy from the bulk thus decreasing its temperature steadily. This allows the water to have a lower temperature.

What is oxidized and what is reduced <br> C2H4 + 2O2 → 2CO + 2H2O<br> C2H4 + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 2H2O
Anika [276]

C2H4 is oxidized and O2 is reduced in both reactions.

<h3>What is oxidation/reduction?</h3>

Oxidation is defined in several ways. Some of the definitions are:

  1. The addition of oxygen or removal of hydrogen
  2. Increase in the oxidation number of atoms
  3. Addition of electronegative or the removal of electropositive elements

Reduction, on the other hand, is defined as:

  1. Removal of oxygen or addition of hydrogen
  2. Decrease in the oxidation number of atoms
  3. Addition of electropositive elements or the removal of electronegative elements.

In the two reactions, oxygen is being added to C2H4. Thus, C2H4 is being oxidized.

The oxidizing agent is O2. In oxidation reactions, the oxidizing agents usually get reduced. Thus, O2 is reduced in both reactions.

So if there is 16 protons and 16 neutrons what would be the charge right now?​
sveta [45]

Answer:

16

Explanation:

Protons have a positive net charge,

Neutrons being neutral don't have a net charge.

Each proton is one extra net charge if you have 16 of them and the neutrons don't affect your net charge you will have 16.
