Answer:
To calculate the number of atoms in a sample, divide its weight in grams by the amu atomic mass from the periodic table, then multiply the result by Avogadro's number: 6.02 x 10^23. Set up Equation Express the relationship of the three pieces of information you need to calculate the number of atoms in the sample in the form of an equation.
I'd say b, but i'm not 100 percent sure.<span />
<span>2Li⁺(aq) + Zn⁰(s) → 2Li⁰(s) + Zn²⁺(aq)
</span>2Li⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → 2Li⁰(s)
Zn⁰(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) +2e⁻
2 electrons are transferred from atom of Zn⁰ to 2 ions of Li⁺.
Answer: X3+
Explanation:
Every atom aim to achieve stability by receiving electrons or giving their valence electrons in order to have a complete outermost shell of 2 (duplet) or 8 (octet structure).
In this case, the atom X will easily give off its three valence electrons to another atom(s), thereby forming a trivalent positive ion (X3+) with a stable duplet or octet structure (i.e an outermost shell with 2 or 8 electrons).
X --> X3+ + 3e-
Thus, due to the give away of three electrons (3e-), the atom X becomes X3+.
