How many nonbonding and bonding electrons are in acetyl chloride?
Ten nonbonding electrons and 14 bonding electrons are in acetyl chloride.
How many electrons does an ion of oxygen have?
First you want to start with how many electrons there are in a neutral atom. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons, which equals the atomic number, which is eight in this case. When becoming an ion and reacting with other elements in an ionic bond, oxygen will gain two electrons. So we just add two onto the number in a neutral atom for a total of ten.
Which would have more of an affect on the mass of an aluminum atom removing ten electrons or one neutron?
69
How the d-block group number relte to the number of outer s and d electrons?
The d-block elements have two electrons in their outermost s sublevels. The group 3 elements have one d electron in their outermost d sublevel, the group 4 elements have two d electrons, adding one additional d electron with each subsequent group until group 12 in which the elements have ten d electrons.
What is the difference between an oxygen 16 atom and an oxygen 18 atom?
In the nucleus of an oxygen-18 atom there are 10 neutrons while in the nucleus of an oxygen-16 atom there are only 8 neutrons. The number of electrons and protons always stay the same.
How do a sodium atom and a sodium ion differ?
A sodium atom contains eleven electrons and has a net neutral electrical charge, because the atom also contains eleven protons. A sodium ion contains only ten electrons and has an electrical charge of +1, because it also contains 11 protons.
What element forms a 3 plus ion with ten electrons?
Aluminium, Al
What is the charge of an atom with twelve electrons and ten protons?
-2
If an atom has 5 protons and 7 electrons what is the charge of the atom?
its charge is 0. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge (neutrons have no charge at all). So ten protons will balance out ten electrons, making the net charge 0.
How many electons are there if there is 9 protons and 9 neutrons?
then it would have 9 protons, 9 electrons,
How many electrons does sodium have?
Assuming that you're talking about one sodium atom and that it's not charged,the number of electrons will have to be 11.Source:http://www.chemicalelements.com/elements/na.html
What is the total number of protons in the nucleus of an F- ion?
9. The proton count remains the same; ionization is merely an electron dependent process. An F- ion has 10 electrons in its cloud.
What would have more of an effect on the mass of an alumnium atom removing 10 electrons or 1 neutron?
ten electrons. If u look on the worksheet it says that neutrons are particles with no charge
How do a sodium and positive sodium ion differ?
Sodium, an Alkali Metal from Group 1 of the periodic table, is the element with atomic number 11. That means it has 11 protons in its nucleus. A neutral atom of sodium will have 11 electrons around it. There will be a one-to-one correspondence between protons and electrons. An ion of sodium (or any other element) will have an unequal number of protons and electrons in it. That's the difference. Sodium atoms have a single valence electron in their valence shell. When we encounter sodium ions, we find them to have "loaned out" that valence electron, and they have an overall charge of +1 now. We write Na+1 or Na+ to indicate this ion. It makes sense when you look at that notation because the 10 electrons remaining around a sodium atom cannot balance the charge of the 11 protons in the nucleus. It's that simple. Lastly, any atom with an unbalanced (unequal) number of positive and negative charges will have an overall charge, and is considered an ion. Note that sodium is very reactive, and we don't find it free in nature. It is always found in combination with another or other elements in compounds. The most common sodium compound we find is NaCl, which is sodium chloride, or table salt. When you put salt in water, it "comes apart" into sodium and chlorine ions in the water. The sodium atoms will be in there with their 11 protons in the nuclei, and will have 10 electrons about them. The chlorine atoms will have "borrowed" or "stolen" one of the electrons from sodium, and the atoms of chlorine will be wandering around with an extra electron - the one they borrowed from sodium. A link can be found below for more information.
How many valence electrons are in Cr?
A chromium ion has the atomic number 24. This means that a neutral atom has 24 electrons. Because it has the net charge of positive three, it has 21 electrons.
Which atom has ten protons and ten electrons?
The noble gas neon has ten protons and an equal number of electrons.
How many 3d electrons are in the atom of Zn?
Zinc has ten 3d electrons.
