What is positive ionization?

a process where in positive ions are formed. Here, the electrons orbiting the outer-most shell of an atom are knocked out, resulting in the atom having more protons than electrons. This creates a positive ion.


What chemical energy form from electron flow?

Well, Chemical energy is not formed by the flow of electron. The flow of electrons is responsible for the generation of electricity. It is not possible to store electrical energy in its original form. So this electrical energy is stored in the form of chemical energy in case of a battery (Electrical energy is stored in the chemicals of a battery thus converting into chemical energy.) Therefore, Electron flow generates only electricity and no chemical energy is formed.


During aerobic respiration electrons are passed down the electron transport chain and what is formed?

Aerobic respiration is a cellular level process in which nutrients are changed into energy. The electrons that pass down the electron transport chain react with oxygen (thus, aerobic) and protons to form water.


What happens when a hydrogen atom absorbs a quantum of energy?

When an atom looses energy a photon (particle of light) is produced with energy equivalent to the energy lost by the atom. In this way we still hold conservation of energy. The fact that energy is quantised means that only certain electron orbits can exist. This is because it is the orbit of the electron which generally holds an atoms energy (at least in this case), so an electron can only stay in quantised orbits. Quantised orbits solved blackbody radiation and provide an insight into chemistry. A solution to the black body radiation problem is the most significant outcome of applying quantum mechanics to the atom. Without it an atom would continously emit energy as the electron spirals towards the nucleus. This is because classically an accelerating charge in a field, like an electron, must give of energy. In a quantum system the energy cannot be given off except in quanta. The way i view it is more like the electron occupies a probability bubble and is not really moving or accelerating at all.


Why formation of di and tri-negaive ions is endothermic process?

when an electron is added to an atom, uninegative ion is formed and enrgy is released. the addition of one more electron is difficult because negative charge or electronic cloud repels it strongly, to overcome this repelsion an amount of energy is needed, which is obtained by surroundings so its an endothermic reaction.

What is formed when the first ionization energy is applied to an aton?

A positive ion with a single charge and a "free" electron are formed.


NAD plus is a carrier for what?

NAD+ is an electron carrier used in cellular respiration. With the addition of an electron and a hydrogen, it becomes NADH. NADH is formed in glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle and is used for the formation of ATP in the Electron Transport Chain, providing energy for the cell.


How is a light wave formed?

By an electron losing energy.

Why is electron affinity expressed as a negative number while the ionization energy has a positive number in calculating the energy of ion pair formation?

when dealing with atomic chemistry in most cases a negative number indicate the gaining of at least one electron and a positive number indicate the loss of an electron. the definition of electron affinity in a nutshell is the ENERGY required to add an electron to in most cases the outermost shell, so the more electron you trying to add the higher the nergy and the more negative the number would be which would represent the amount of electron added eg.. if i want to add let say 2e- to a oxygen atom then the result would be O(g) + 2e- = O2-(g) also you can see that an anion is formed. on the other hand ionization energy is the somewhat the opposite, it is the removal of the most loosely held electron from a atom in the GASEOUS state forming cation in the end. eg.. Na(g) = Na+(g) + e- . Note that while ionization MUST be in the GASEOUS state electron affinity not necessarily have to. So dont used both terms as positive or negative loosely like that its just an indication of telling us what is going on whether the atom is loosing or gaining electron/s. hope this helps .

Does a atom gain mass during ionization?

When an element loses an electron(s) to form a cation there is a very very small decrease in mass When an anion is formed by gaining electron(s) there is a very small increase. A proton weighs roughly the same as a neutron and these are nearly 2000X the mass of an electron.
