The final charge on each of the three separated spheres in part (b) is +3.0 μC. How many electrons would have to be added to one

marishachu [46]

Answer:

$1.873\times 10^{13}$ electrons should be added to one of these spheres to make it electrically neutral.

Explanation:

Total charge on each sphere = +3.0 μC = $3\times 10^{-6} C$

$1 \mu C=10^{-6} C$

In order to neutralize the positive charge equal magnitude of negative charge is to be added.

Total charge electrons, Q= -3.0 μC = $-3\times 10^{-6} C$

Number of electrons = n

Charge on a single electron, e = $-1.602\times 10^{-19} C$

Q = n × e

$-3\times 10^{-6} C=n\times (-1.602\times 10^{-19} C)$

$n=\frac{-3\times 10^{-6} C}{-1.602\times 10^{-19} C}=1.873\times 10^{13}$

$1.873\times 10^{13}$ electrons should be added to one of these spheres to make it electrically neutral.

Write the complete balanced equation for the neutralization reaction that occurs when aqueous hydroiodic acid, HI, and sodium hy

Serhud [2]

Answer:

H+ ( aq ) + HCO3- ( aq ) ------> H2O( l ) + CO2 ( g )

Explanation:

The complete reaction when hydroiodic acid and sodium hydrogen carbonate combine, would be as follows -

HI + NaHCO3 ----> NaI + H2O + CO2

net reaction

H2CO3 is highly unstable, and thus decomposes into the water and carbon dioxide you see present as the reactants. If you didn't know already, H2CO3 is also reffered to as carbonic acid. The rest of the elements present on the reactant side are Iodine and Sodium, which is why they are present on the product side as NaI.

Let me include the " physical states " in this reaction as well -

HI ( aq ) + NaHCO3 ( aq ) ----> NaI ( aq ) + H2O ( l ) + CO2 ( g )

Now the complete ionic equation would simply be each compound present as ions in an aqueous solution, so there is no need for an explanation on this step -

H+ ( aq ) + I- ( aq ) + Na+ ( aq ) + HCO3- ( aq ) -------> Na+ ( aq ) + I- ( aq ) + H2O( l ) + CO2 ( g )

The spectator ions in this reaction are I- and Na+, so canceling them out, you would receive the following net ionic equation -

H+ ( aq ) + HCO3- ( aq ) ------> H2O( l ) + CO2 ( g )

<u><em>Hope that helps!</em></u>

QUICK QUESTION: On the Bohr model, how come potassium has 19 electrons in its valence shell if potassium has a K+? Isn’t it supp

Vlada [557]

Answer: K only has 1 valence electron. It will leave with only a little effort, leaving behind a positively charged K^+1 atom.

Explanation: A neutral potassium atom has 19 total electrons. But only 1 of them is in potassium's valence shell. Valence shell means the outermost s and p orbitals. Potasium's electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1. The 4s orbital is the only orbital in the 4th energy level. So it has a valency of 1. This means this electron will be the most likely to leave, since it is the lone electron in the oyutermost energy level (4). When that electron leaves, the charge on the atom go up by 1. The atom now has a full valence shell of 3s^2 3p^6, the same as argon, Ar.
