What is the quantum number that describes the most probable distance from the nucleaus that an electron resides?
Distance depends on the principal quantum number n.
Why does helium has a higher first ionization energy than argon?
The ionisation energy depends on the orbital from which the electron is removed and also the distance of the orbital from the nucleus. In the case of Helium, the electron is removed from 1s orbital whereas in the case of argon it is from 3p orbital. As 1s is closer to the nucleus, the force of attraction experience by these electrons is higher and hence helium will have higher 1st ionisation energy.
How do electrons influence the shape of a molecule?
It depends on the # of electrons are in it.
An atom that loses electrons has a negative charge?
1) depends up on the the element basically: metals (electropositive elements) can donate nonmetals can(electro negative )elements can accpect the electrons 2)the result: if an atom losses the electron it becomes positively charged normally metals donate the electons and become + charged.
Do electrons have a lot or a little mass?
It depends on what the electron is made up of if it is say hydrogen it only has 1 neutron when say oxygen has 8 neutrons 2 in the first shell and 6 in the second so it is larger .
Where can you find the nearest electron in Maine?
Electrons make up a part of matter, therefore an electron is always in contact with you. The distance between you and an electron in Maine depends on how close you are to Maine.
Which of the parts of an atom is the lightest part of the atom why?
Depends, but it is probably electron
The chemical properties of an atom depend on the number of what?
It depends on the number of electrons in the outer valence shell in the atom
When a atom losses a electron it becomes a?
It depends on the amount of electrons. Zaragotha (Zara)
What is the relative charge of a electron?
Protons have positive charge and electrons negative
Are valence electrons held loosely by the atom?
Assuming you are talking about the electrons in their shells (not the displaced ones):It depends on the distance of those electrons from the nucleus. For example electron in the outer shell of potassium (K) is further away form the nucleus than electron in the outer shell of sodium (Na).It means that potassium can lose this electron in outer shell easier than sodium does, and therefore is more reactive than sodium.
The electron affinity of an atom typically depends on?
The electron affinity (or electronegativity as it would more usually be called) of an atom typically depends on the number of electrons in the outer shell. It is also influenced by the size of the atom. One electron in the outer shell gives you a low electronegativity, and seven electrons in the outer shell gives a high electronegativity; eight gives zero electronegativity. And as atoms get larger, the electronegativity falls off. So the very highest electronegativity is for the fluorine atom which is the smallest atom that has seven electrons in its outer shell.
How many electrons form ionic bonds?
This depends on the elemnts involved. The simple model of electron transfer to create octets is useful. In a cation with a charge of +1 one electron is lost, +2 two electrons etc. For anions when the charge is -1 one electron is gained, -2 two electrons gaine etc.
Does a electron cloud have a specific size?
It is impossible to know exactly where an electron is. Thus, the size of an electron cloud can be given only in terms of probability. Even then, the size of the electron cloud depends on how many electrons an atom possesses.
How many valence electron can any atom have?
The number of valence electrons depends on the atom and can vary from 1 to 8.
What is the quantum number that describes the most probable distance from the nucleaus that an electron resides?
Distance depends on the principal quantum number n.
How many electrons are in an atom?
It depends on the element. However in the case of single atoms, the number of electrons is the same as the atomic number. Some examples are: Hydrogen - 1 electron Carbon - 6 electrons Iron - 26 electrons Gold - 79 electrons
