Determine the number of charged particles in nucleus of calcium atom then deduce the number of electrons

Chemistry

Dafna1 [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

detail is given below.

Explanation:

The charged particles of nucleus are protons while neutrons are neutral having no charge.

We know that an atom consist of electrons, protons and neutrons. Neutrons and protons are present inside the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus.

Electron has a negative charge and is written as e⁻. The mass of electron is 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg . While mass of proton and neutron is 1.672623×10⁻²⁷Kg and 1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg respectively.

Symbol of proton= P⁺  

Symbol of neutron= n⁰  

The number of electron or number of protons are called atomic number while mass number of an atom is sum of protons and neutrons.

one proton contribute 1 amu to the total weight. There are 20 protons and 20 neutrons in Ca thus its atomic mass is 40 amu.

While the atomic number is 20.

What is Aqua Auras mineral family/class?
ioda
Aqua Auras belong to the Quartz family. It's a synthetic type of Quarts that was enhanced with the help of gold coating, and sometimes other materials. The reason why it's called as aqua is because of its distinctive blue color thanks to the procedure which made it.

If fluorine 20 undergoes beta decay , what will it become ?
e-lub [12.9K]
Fluorine 20 (F - Atomic number 9 and atomic mass 20). Firstly we need to know what is beta decay. Beta decay occurs when one neutron changes into a proton and an electron therefore the atomic mass will remain the same as even though we loose a neutron it is replaced by a proton, the atomic number is always raised by 1 when one beta decay occurs. The produced electron is shot out of the nucleus at an incredible speed. This speedy electron we call a beta particle.

Ok now the reaction.

 20       20        0
F  -> Ne    +     e
 9         10       -1

Remember the atomic number determines the nature of the element ( i.e what elemnt it is).
Hope this helps :).

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium. What effect will increasing the pressure of the reaction mixture have on the sys
8090 [49]

Answer:

Choice d. No effect will be observed as long as other factors (temperature, in particular) are unchanged.

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant of a reaction does not depend on the pressure. For this particular reaction, the equilibrium quotient is:

Q = \displaystyle \frac{[\mathrm{SO_2\, (g)}]}{[\mathrm{O_2\, (g)}]}.

Note that the two sides of this balanced equation contain an equal number of gaseous particles. Indeed, both [\mathrm{SO_2\, (g)}] and [\mathrm{O_2\, (g)}] will increase if the pressure is increased through compression. However, because \rm SO_2\, (g) and \rm O_2\, (g) have the same coefficients in the equation, their concentrations are raised to the same power in the equilibrium quotient Q.

As a result, the increase in pressure will have no impact on the value of Q\!. If the system was already at equilibrium, it will continue to be at an equilibrium even after the change to its pressure. Therefore, no overall effect on the equilibrium position should be visible.
