In chemical reactions the number of each kind of atom in the reactants is?
It's the same as the product :)
What determines the type of chemical reactions that atom participate in?
the number of electrons in the outermost electron shell
What determines types of chemical reactions that an atom participates in?
the number of electrons in the outermost electron shell
What determines the type of chemical reactions that an atom participates in?
the number of electrons in the outermost electron shell
What is known about the number of protons vs the number of electrons?
a neutral atom will have equal amounts of protons and electrons. This number can change as the atom is oxidized or reduced in chemical reactions
Does the number and location of the atomic mass unit in any atom determine the kinds of chemical reactions that atom may undergo?
yes
What of an atom's electrons are involved in chemical reactions?
The electrons farthest from the nucleus of the atom
What determine the atom chemical properties?
Chemical reactions depends on the valence electrons.
What is the smallest unit of matter that can enter chemical reactions and is nondivisible by chemical means?
An atom.
What do you know about types of atoms before and after a reaction?
Assuming that you are referring to chemical reactions, we know that atoms are not changed by chemical reactions (except for their oxidation states). That means that all the same types of atoms are present after the reactions as were there before the reactions. The type of an atom is determined by the number of protons in its nucleus.
What type of atoms that the functional groups attached to and take part in chemical reactions?
The Electrons farthest from the nucleus of the atom
Why does the number of atoms coming out of a chemical reaction have to equal the number of atoms going into a chemical reaction?
Both sides of a chemical equation must balance due to the law of "Conservation of Mass" which states that in a reaction no matter is created or destroyed. The mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. Eg. Methane (CH4) combustion (reaction with oxygen) CH4+2O2 = 2H2O+CO2 Reactants 1 Carbon atom 4 Hydrogen atom 4 Oxygen atoms Products 1 Carbon atom 4 Hydrogen atom 4 Oxygen atoms Here the reactants and products have the same mass which replicates what happens in nature Hope this was helpful
