Answer:
When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable.
Answer:
Neutral or uncharged
Explanation:
The positive charge on a proton is equal in magnitude to the negative charge on an electron. As a result, a neutral atom must have an equal number of protons and electrons.
Answer:
P2 = 19.2atm
Explanation:
Initial pressure (P1) = 16atm
Initial temperature (T1) = 340K
Final temperature (T2) = 408K
Final pressure (P2) = ?
This question involves the use of pressure law
Pressure law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to it's temperature provided that volume is kept constant.
Mathematically,
P = kT, k = P / T
Therefore,
P1 / T1 = P2 / T2 = P3 / T3 = ......=Pn / Tn
P1 / T1 = P2 / T2
We need to solve for P2
P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1
Now we can plug in the values and solve for P2
P2 = (16 × 408) / 340
P2 = 6528 / 340
P2 = 19.2atm
The final pressure (P2) of the gas is 19.2atm
Answer:
The third one
Explanation:
Nickel-62 has the highest binding energy per nucleon of any isotope for any element. Isotopes heavier than 62Ni cannot be formed by nuclear fusion without losing energy.
