Answer:

By finding the number of protons

Explanation:

Keep in mind when trying to find the number of electrons of a element, the number of electrons also equals the number of protons. In order to find the number of protons in the element simply find it's atomic number.

Example:

Find the number of electrons in the element iron.

Fe (Iron)

Fe's atomic number is 26

Protons/electrons = 26

Hope this helps.

The number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom can be determined from a set of simple rules. The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom is equal to the atomic number (Z). The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons.

What is the maximum amount of kcl that can dissolve in 200g of water?
Likurg_2 [28]
The solubility of potassium chloride in at room temperature is approximately 34 g per 100 g of water. Therefore, the maximum amount that could be dissolved would be 34/100 ( 200) = 68 g of KCl. When more than this amount is added, excess potassium would not dissolve forming crystals in the solution.

Two well-known complex ions containing ni are [ni(h2o)6]2+, which is green, and [ni(en)3]2+, which is purple. which one of these
Julli [10]
For [Ni(en)³]²⁺ which is purple, the crystal field splitting energy is greater than the complex ion, [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ which is green in color.
When a Lewis base id attached to the metal ion by covalent bond, then the complex ion is formed and when these complex ions are present with other ions of opposite charge or neutral charge, they will make complex compounds.
