All atoms of the same element have the same ____.a. number of neutrons
c. mass numbers
b. number of protons
d. mass

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: An element is unique due to its number of protons. If you were to change the number of protons, the element would be a completely different element

A solution has a [OH-] = 8.6 x 10-5. Answer the following questions.

pOH =
pH =
[H+] =

Answers

Answer: pOH= 4.06

pH= 9.94

[H^+]=1.14* 10^(-10)M

Explanation: pOH is the negative logarithm of OH^- concentration.

pH is the negative logarithm of H^+ concentration.

pOH=-log[OH^-]

pOH=-log[8.6* 10^(-5)]=4.06

2) pH+pOH=14

pH=14-4.06

pH=9.94

3) pH=-log[H^+]

9.94=-log[H^+]

[H^+]=1.14* 10^(-10)M

pOH = 4
pH = 10
[H+] = 1 X 10^-10

Which layer of the sun is shown extending into space in the picture above?

Answers

Answer:

Corona

Explanation:

The outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere is called the corona, meaning “crown.” The corona is formed of thin wisps of gas that extend outward into space for millions of miles. It is much less bright than the photosphere, so we can only see it if the rest of the sun is blotted out, for example during a solar eclipse.

Which statement is true regarding the formation of ionic bonds?(a). Anions and cations share electrons.
(b). Atoms transfer electronsto form cations and anions.
(c). Ions transfer electrons to form cations and anions.
(d). Anions and cations donate electrons.

Answers

Answer: (b). Atoms transfer electrons to form cations and anions.

Explanation:

Covalent compounds are formed by sharing of electrons takes place between  non metals.Ionic compounds are formed by transfer of electrons between metals and non metals.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Sodium atom has oxidation number of +1.

Electronic configuration of sodium:

[Na]=1s^22s^22p^63s^1

Sodium atom will loose one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form sodium cation with +1 charge.

[Na^+]=1s^22s^22p^63s^0

Chlorine atom has oxidation number of -1.

Electronic configuration of chlorine:

[Cl]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

Chlorine atom will gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form chloride ion with -1 charge.

[Cl^-]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

In sodium chloride the one electron from sodium metal gets transferred to chlorine atom and thus form an ionic bond.

Answer:

Atoms transfer electrons to form cations and anions.

Explanation:

Covalent compounds are formed by sharing of electrons takes place between  non metals.Ionic compounds are formed by transfer of electrons between metals and non metals.

What experimental evidence did Thomson have for each statement? A. Electrons have a negative charge.
B. Atoms of all elements contain electrons.

Answers

Thomson studied electric discharge in a vacuum and found that the deflection of rays was evidence of atoms containing much smaller particles. He calculated that these particles would have a large charge in relation to their mass. While he did not name electrons, he knew they existed.

Answer : In the experiment of Cathode Ray, Scientist J.J. Thomson found that a stream of electricity was attracted to the positive portion of an electrical plate, which helped him to conclude that there must be a negative aspect to matter. He called this discovery as the electron.

He was the one who suggested that these small, negatively charged particles were actually subatomic particles. Which are now called as "electrons".

Since atoms are found to be neutral, when it contain negatively charged electrons it must also contain some positively charged material.
