Describe the difference between at atom and an ion in regards to their substaomic particles.

Chemistry
1 answer:
tangare [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

-Atoms are neutral; they contain the same number of protons as electrons. By definition, an ion is an electrically charged particle produced by either removing electrons from a neutral atom to give a positive ion or adding electrons to a neutral atom to give a negative ion.

-An atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. An ion has an imbalance between the number of protons and electrons.

-An atom has no electrical charge. Ions have an electrical charge because they have an imbalance of protons and electrons.

1. H2SO4, sulfuric acid, contains three different types of atoms: hydrogen (H), sulfur (S), and oxygen (O). Each of these atoms
sammy [17]

Answer:

The blanks can be completed with words in the following sequence

1) elements

compound

2) atom

3) matter

4) compound

5) chemistry

6) reactants

product

Explanation:

In H2SO4, atoms of hydrogen, sulphur and oxygen represent different elements that are combined to form the compound.

The smallest indivisible unit of matter that still retains all the properties of matter is an atom. Matter is anything that has weight and occupy space.

Atoms combine in fixed ratios to form compounds. Chemistry studies matter scientifically and pays specific attention to the changes that matter undergoes.

Considering the reaction of photosynthesis, water and carbon dioxide combine to give glucose so the water and carbon dioxide  are reactants while the glucose is the product of the reaction.

Laura is supplied with 5 bolts (B) and 12 nuts (N). She attached the nuts to the bolts in a 2:1 ratio (N2B). Which of the reacta
Andrews [41]

Answer:

The bolts will run out first, so these will limit how much product can be formed.

(option C is correct)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of bolts = 5

Number of nuts = 12

ratio N:B = 2:1

Step 2

Since the ratio N:B is 2:1 we have 2 nuts for each bolt

When we have 2 bolts we have 4 nuts

When we have 3 bolts we have 6 nuts

When we have 4 bolts we have 8 nuts

When we have 5 bolts we have 10 nuts

We don't have more bolts, but there are still 2 nuts left. This means the bolts will run out first, so these will limit how much product can be formed.

(option C is correct)

When two atoms form a covalent bond, they share electrons from all of their orbitals. All of their orbitals, in turn, combine to
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

It's false.

Explanation:

Molecular orbital theory states that the number of molecular orbitals is equal to the number of atomic orbitals that overlap. The lowest energy molecular orbital is formed when two atomic orbitals that are in phase overlap, forming a bonding molecular orbital. However, another molecular orbital is also formed, called an anti-binding orbital.

So if an "n" quantity of atomic orbitals is combined, an "n" quantity of molecular orbitals is formed.

Have a nice day!

You have used 2.4×102 L of distilled water for a dialysis patient. How many gallons of water is that?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

63.36gallons

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of water used for dialysis = 2.4 x 10²L

Solution:

We are to convert from liters to gallons.

The conversion factor is shown below:

                1L = 0.264gallons

To convert to litre:

       since 1L = 0.264gallons

             2.4 x 10²L = (2.4 x 10² x 0.264)gallons; 63.36gallons
