Number of electrons lost or gained by an atom in a chemical reaction is its?
Number of electrons are lost by an atom in a chemichl reaction
What part of the atom is involved in a chemical bond?
A standard chemical reaction always and only involves a change in the electron configuration of the atom (either the number of electrons or their energy configuration).If the nucleus is affected (either the number of protons or electrons), then it is designated as a nuclear reaction, and this is quite different.
When a species in a chemical reaction loses electrons The oxidation number increases?
Yes.
What parts of an atom participate in chemical reactions?
When an element reacts with another element, they form a compound. How a compound is formed has to do with the number of valence electrons. The valence electrons are the electrons which are held in the outer most energy level.
Which subatomic determines the atoms chemical properties and why?
Valence shell electrons or valence electrons determine the chemical properties of an atom...
Why atomic number not change during a chemical reaction?
chemical reactions are involved by the participation of electrons only.During chemical reaction number of protans remains as it is. No change in number of protans.Number of protans is also called atomic number.So no change in number of protans means no change in atomic number. That's why atomic number is not change during a chemical reaction.
What involve a chemical chemical change?
Chemical reactions involve a change in the chemical composition of the reacting substances.
What does the plus sign indicate in a chemical reaction?
It indicates the number of electrons being donated to other atoms.
If all element had atoms with a stable number of electrons what effect would this have a chemical reaction?
Chemical Reactions would not exist, since unstable electrons are needed to start a Chemical Reaction, All the molecules would be stable, so they would not need to undergo change to become more stable.
In a redox reaction the total number of electrons lost is?
In a redox reaction the number of electrons lost by one particle is equal to the number of electrons gained by another particle.
What happens during a reduction/oxidation reaction?
An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron
Is a change in the number of particles in a suspension a chemical reaction?
This is not a chemical reaction.
