Answer:

No this statement is false.

Explanation:

when an atom lose or gain the electron ions are formed. If the atom lose an electron the positive ions are formed called cations while anion is formed by the gaining of electron by an atom The elements having less electrons in valance shell usually lose their electrons while the elements like halogens having 7 valance electrons gain an electron to complete the octet. while p block elements noble gases are inert, their outer most valance shell is complete so they do not form ions.

P block elements are non-metals, metals and metalloids. These are thirty five elements. The P-block elements are present on right side of periodic table. There valance electrons are present in P orbital. The p-block metals are shiny and good conductor of heat and electricity. These metal lose the electron which is accept by non metals and form ionic bond. They have high melting points.

Metalloids includes boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium. Metalloids contain both the properties of metals and non metals, Some metalloids are toxic like arsenic.

Most of p-block elements are non metals. They are bad conductor of heat and electricity and have low boiling points. The non metals mostly accept the electron from the metals and usually from ionic bond like in case of chlorine. It form the ionic compound with sodium.

The sodium chloride which is an ionic compound, formed by the complete transfer of electron from sodium to chlorine atom and form ionic bond. In this ionic compound sodium carry positive charge and chlorine carry negative charge there is attraction between these oppositely charged atoms.

Answer:

An atom is made of up subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons. The center of an atom is called the nucleus and is where the protons and neutrons are held while electrons orbit the nucleus in orbital shells. A electron has a negative charge, a proton has a positive charge, and a neutron has no charge (neutral).

The atomic number of a atom is the total amount of the atom's protons. In a neutral atom (Not an ion), the amount of electrons is the same as the protons. Therefore, the atomic number also tells the amount of electrons in the atom.

A ion is a negatively or positively charged particle due to the giving or taking of electrons with one or more atoms (Called an ionic bond). An atom that gives away electrons becomes positively charge because that atom now has more protons than neutrons. An atom that takes an electron becomes negatively charge because that atom now has more electrons than protons.

Atomic Mass is the sum of an atom proton and neutrons. To determine how many neutron an atom has, subtract the atomic mass from the atomic number. Electrons do not play a part in atomic mass as their mass is 1/1,836 of a proton's mass.

A isotope is two or more forms of the same element that contain equal amounts of protons but different amount of neutrons.

G determine the concentration of an hbr solution if a 45.00 ml aliquot of the solution yields 0.6485 g agbr when added to a solu

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The molecular weight of silver bromide (AgBr) is 187.77 g/mole. The presence of the ions in solution can be shown as- AgBr (insoluble) ⇄ $Ag^{+}$ + $Br^{-1}$ .

45.00 mL of the aliquot contains 0.6485 g of AgBr. Thus 1000 mL of the aliquot contains $\frac{0.6485}{45}$ ×1000 = 14.411 gm-mole. Thus the solubility product $K_{sp}$ of AgBr = [ $Ag^{+}$ ]× $Br^{-}$ .

Or, 5.0× $10^{-13}$ = $S^{2}$ (the given value of solubility product of AgBr is 5.0× $10^{-13}$ and the charge of the both ions are same).

Thus S = (5.00× $10^{-13}$ ) $^{1/2}$ = 7.071× $10^{-7}$ g/mL.

Thus the concentration of Br $^{-1}$ or HBr is 7.071× $10^{-7}$ g/mL.

2 drops of vinegar & 2 drops ammonia solution or not

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

No, this is false because we know about the law that says if you add two things together you are adding the masses together, 2 drops of vinegar and 2 drops of ammonia would equal four drops of solution not two

Hope this helps!!

Given the data you collected for the volume of water displaced by 25.000 g of aluminum, what is the density of aluminum?

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

C. 2.70 g/mL

Explanation:

Density is the ratio between the mass of a substance and the volume it occupies. Based on Archimedes' volume, the displaced volume of the aluminium is the volume it occupies. To solve this question we must find the difference in volume between initial volume of water = 30mL and final volume of water + aluminium = 39.26mL. This difference is the volume of the aluminium. With its mass we can find density:

39.26mL - 30mL = 9.26mL

Density = 25.00g / 9.26mL =

2.70g/mL

True or false an atom is the smallest particle of a whole element

alina1380 [7]

True, as an atom has the same chemical properties as the first bulk element. Dalton’s Atomic Theory explains all :))
