What is the difference between mass of hydrogen and mass of electron?
There are different isotopes of hydrogen. Assuming you mean the difference in atomic mass between a proton and an electron though, the atomic mass of a proton is about 1836 times greater (approx 1.007 amu), and the neutron is a little more than that (approx 1.009 amu).
What is the difference between a proton and a hydrogen ion?
A proton is a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom. A hydrogen ion, on the other hand, is a positively charged ion of hydrogen that has lost its electron. So, a hydrogen ion is essentially a proton outside of the nucleus.
Is it possible for an atom to have no neutrons?
A hydrogen atom is only a proton and an electron. Beyond that the neutron seems to keep the nucleus together and stable. Maybe a better question is, "What is the difference between a hydrogen atom without an electron and a proton?"
What is the difference between a hydrogen atom and atomic hydrogen?
A hydrogen atom refers to a single neutral hydrogen particle consisting of one proton and one electron. Atomic hydrogen, on the other hand, typically refers to a collection of hydrogen atoms in a gaseous state, where the atoms are not bonded to each other.
What term describes the difference between the numbers of hydrogen ions on opposite sides of the membrane?
Diffusion and it does not have to be through a semi permeable membrane.
Is bonding of four hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom ionic or covalent?
Covalent. The elctronegativity (the ability of an atom to attract electrons) difference between Hydrogen and Carbon is not enough that carbon will completely strip an electron from the hydrogen. Instead, the Carbon pulls on the shared electron just a little bit more than the hydrgen does, creating a covalent bond between them.
What is the difference between a hydrogen atom and a hydrogen cation?
A hydrogen atom carries a neutral charge. (The number of protons and electrons are balanced.)A hydrogen cation is an ion so it carries a charge, and it's a positive charge because it's a cation. (There is one less electron, which makes the element a cation.)
Does hydrogen fluoride have covalent bonds?
Yes, hydrogen fluoride has covalent bonds. In hydrogen fluoride (HF), hydrogen shares an electron with fluorine to form a covalent bond, where the electron is shared between the two atoms. This sharing of electrons is characteristic of covalent bonds.
How and why do the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen in water differ from bonds between hydrogen and carbon?
Hydrogen bonding exists between hydrogen and oxygen in water, becuase of the huge electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen. This arises, due to the huge electron affinity of oxygen. Such interaction is not possible between carbon and hydrogen, as athe carbon is not as electronegative as oxygen.
What type of bond does HCl form?
"Hydrogen has +1 valency and chlorine has -1 valency. So, they share a single electron and form a single covalent bondbetween them. "Chlorine is -1, meaning it has one extra electron. Hydrogen is +1, meaning it requires one electron to fill its valence (if only) shell. therefore HCl is an ionic bond where hydrogen is stealing one electron from chlorine.
How many electron pairs are being shared between the hydrogen atoms and the bonded oxygen?
There are two electron pairs being shared between the hydrogen atoms and the bonded oxygen in a water molecule. The oxygen atom forms a single covalent bond with each hydrogen atom by sharing one electron pair with each hydrogen atom.
What is the difference between excited hydrogen atom and any other atom?
Hydrogen atom = 1 proton 1 electron Hydrogen's 1 electron occupies the lowest energy level, 1s orbital. The atom is therefore in its "ground state". When a photon of correct frequency "collides" with a electron in hydrogen's 1s orbital the energy contained in the photon is transferred to the electron. The electron then gets added energy, so it is at a higher energy state. When it reaches this higher energy state the electron jumps to the next energy level and there it starts its new orbit. Hydrogen atom is now "excited" For any other atoms it is the same thing because all atoms can undergo excitation. The only difference between hydrogen's 1 electron and other atom's many electrons is WHICH ELECTRON will be "excited"
