Answer:
Explanation:
We will need a balanced chemical equation with masses, moles, and molar masses.
1. Gather all the information in one place:
Mᵣ: 18.02
2Na + H₂O ⟶ 2NaOH + H₂
m/g: 72.0
2. Moles of H₂O
3. Moles of Na
The molar ratio is 2 mol Na/1 mol H₂O.
Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When there is a negative charge on an atom then we add the charge with the number of electrons. Whereas when there is a positive charge on an atom then we subtract the charge from the number of electrons.
Atomic number of chlorine is 17. So, number of electrons present in is 17 + 1 = 18 electrons.
Atomic number of cobalt is 27. So, number of electrons present in is 27 - 4 = 23 electrons.
Atomic number of iron is 26. So, number of electrons present in is 26 - 2 = 24 electrons.
Atomic number of vanadium is 23. So, number of electrons present in V is 23 electrons.
Atomic number of scandium is 21. So, number of electrons present in is 21 + 2 = 23 electrons.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given species, has the greatest number of electrons.
