Answer:
Explanation:
1. the 1/2 reaction that occurs at the cathode
3Cl2(g) +6e^- -------------> 6Cl^- (aq)
2 the 1/2 reaction that occurs at the anode
2MnO2(s) + 8OH^-(aq) ----------> 2MnO4^- (aq) + 4H2O(l) +6e^-
2MnO2(s) + 8OH^-(aq) ----------> 2MnO4^- (aq) + 4H2O(l) +6e^-
E0 = -0.59v
3Cl2(g) +6e^- -------------> 6Cl^- (aq)
E0 = 1.39v
3Cl2 (g) + 2MnO2 (s) + 8OH^(−) (aq)---------> 6Cl^(−) (aq) + 2MnO4^(−) (aq) + 4H2O (l)
E0cell = 0.80v
A. an ion
The atom gains a net electrical charge if the number of protons and electrons are not equal which makes it an ion.
There is an unstable ratio of protons and neutrons. Because protons are positively charged but neutrons have no charge, an increase in the number of protons means there needs to be an increase in the number of neutrons to "bind" the nucleus together. This is because like charges repel, so the protons will repel each other, and if there aren't enough neutrons to act as "glue" to hold the nucleus together, the nucleus will break apart.
Answer:
Its in the Explanation
Explanation:
Here's what I got.
Aluminium-27 is an isotope of aluminium characterized by the fact that is has a mass number equal to
27
.
Now, an atom's mass number tells you the total number of protons and of neutrons that atom has in its nucleus. Since you're dealing with an isotope of aluminum, it follows that this atom must have the exact same number of protons in its nucleus.
The number of protons an atom has in its nucleus is given by the atomic number. A quick looks in the periodic table will show that aluminum has an atomic number equal to
13
.
This means that any atom that is an isotope of aluminum will have
13
protons in its nucleus.
Since you're dealing with a neutral atom, the number of electrons that surround the nucleus must be equal to the number of protons found in the nucleus.
Therefore, the aluminium-27 isotope will have
13
electrons surrounding its nucleus.
Finally, use the known mass number to determine how many neutrons you have
mass number
=
no. of protons
+
no. of neutrons
no. of neutrons
=
27
−

14
Your welcome :)
I think during toddler years, I used to be sooo paranoid during that time because I used to think about robbery, etc.
