If there are 5 protons, how many electrons does the atom have?

1 answer:

6 0

If this is a single atom of Boron, there should be 5 electrons as well. Boron as an electron configuration of 2-3 or 1s2 2s2 2p

Irina18 [472]

Explanation:

A process in which water vapor changes into liquid state is known as condensation. As we know that when energy is released in a reaction then it is known as exothermic reaction and when energy is absorbed in a reaction then it is known as endothermic reaction.

As vapors have high energy so, when they change into liquid state then heat energy is released by them. Therefore, condensation is an exothermic reaction.

As per Le Chatelier's principle, any disturbance caused in an equilibrium reaction will tend to shift the equilibrium in a direction away from the disturbance.

So, when there will occur a decrease in temperature then molecules of a gas will come closer to each other. Hence, there will also occur a decrease in vapor pressure of the gas.

Answer: The final concentration of potassium nitrate is $5.70\times 10^{-6}M$

Explanation:

To calculate the molecular mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

We are given:

Mass of potassium nitrate (solute) = 0.360 g

Molar mass of potassium nitrate = 101.1 g/mol

Volume of solution = 500.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molarity of }KNO_3=\frac{0.360\times 1000}{101.1\times 500.0}\\\\\text{Molarity of }KNO_3=7.12\times 10^{-3}M$

To calculate the molarity of the diluted solution, we use the equation:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$ .......(1)

Calculating for first dilution:

$M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the molarity and volume of the concentrated $KNO_3$ solution

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the molarity and volume of diluted $KNO_3$ solution

We are given:

$M_1=7.12\times 10^{-3}M\\V_1=10mL\\M_2=?M\\V_2=500.0mL$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$7.12\times 10^{-3}\times 10=M_2\times 500\\\\M_2=\frac{7.12\times 10^{-3}\times 10}{500}=1.424\times 10^{-4}M$

Calculating for second dilution:

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the molarity and volume of the concentrated $KNO_3$ solution

$M_3\text{ and }V_3$ are the molarity and volume of diluted $KNO_3$ solution

We are given:

$M_2=1.424\times 10^{-4}M\\V_2=10mL\\M_3=?M\\V_3=250.0mL$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$1.424\times 10^{-4}\times 10=M_3\times 250\\\\M_3=\frac{1.424\times 10^{-4}\times 10}{250}=5.70\times 10^{-6}M$

Hence, the final concentration of potassium nitrate is $5.70\times 10^{-6}M$
