How does the electron-cloud model describe electrons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sav [38]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

C. An electron has a high probability of being in certain regions.

Explanation:

In the electron cloud model, there are no electron-orbits around the nucleus but a cloud. This cloud has various densities with respect to distance from the nucleus. The most dense region of the cloud (which is the region close to the nucleus) is where electrons has the highest probability of existence.

The model explains that an electron a greater chance of being in the region closer to the nucleus. Thus, an electron has a high probability of being in certain region of the cloud about the central nucleus. And an electrostatic force exists between the nucleus and the electrons.

Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2): g/mol
Eva8 [605]

To determine the molar mass, you need to get the atomic mass of the molecule. To do this, check the periodic table for the atomic mass or average atomic weight of each element.

Mg = 24.305 x 1 = 24.305 amu

O = 15.9994 x 2 =31.9988 amu

H = 1.0079 x 2 = 2.0158 amu

 

Then, add all the components to get the atomic mass of the molecule.

24.305 amu + 31.9988 amu + 2.0158 amu = 58.3196 amu


The atomic mass is just equivalent to its molar mass.

So, the molar mass of Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) is 58.3196 g/mol.

Consider the perbromate anion. What is the central atom? Enter its chemical symbol. How many lone pairs are around the central a
Yanka [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The central atom in the perbromate ion is bromine. The chemical symbol of bromine is Br. There are no lone pairs around the central bromine atom. The ion is tetrahedral in shape hence we expect a bond angle of 109°. 27 which is the ideal tetrahedral bond angle. The actual bond angle of the prebromate ion is 109.5°. The perbromate ion is BrO4^-

The observed bond angle is very close to the ideal value because of the absence of lone pairs of electrons from the central atom in the ion.

What is the net ion charge of Beryllium?​
KATRIN_1 [288]

Explanation:

Beryllium is a group 2 element and its atomic number is 4. Electronic configuration of beryllium is 1s^{2}2s^{2}.

Since, a beryllium contains two valence electrons so, in order to attain stability it will readily lose its 2 valence electrons.

Therefore, a beryllium atom upon losing two valence electrons will acquire a +2 charge.

Thus, we can conclude that the net ion charge of Beryllium is +2.
