How does chlorine affect aluminum?
Chlorine can react with aluminum to form aluminum chloride, which can corrode the aluminum surface. This can lead to degradation and weakening of the aluminum material over time. It is important to avoid exposing aluminum to chlorine to prevent this kind of corrosion.
What happens when an atom gains or loses a neutron?
If this were to happen, which for most nuclei would be unbelievably unlikely, it would form a different isotope of the same element. I can't offhand think of any way a nucleus could gain or lose a neutron without something else happening at the same time. A neutron can change into a proton by emitting an electron (and an electron antineutrino), or a proton can absorb an electron and change into a neutron, but in both of these cases there's more going on than just the neutron number of the nucleus changing.
A lithium atom contains 3 protons 4 neutrons and 3 electrons. What would be formed if one proton is added to this atom?
As you already know the atom consists of protons, neutron and eletrons. The number of protons determins which chemical element it is, and on the periodic table of elements, we can see that the next element after lithium is beryllium.-An atom with 3 protons, 3 neutrons, and 3 electrons.- An atom with 3 protons, 5 neutrons, and 3 electrons
What are some foods that will react with magnesium and aluminum pans?
Foods that are acidic, alkaline, or high in salt can react with magnesium and aluminum pans, causing them to leach into the food and affect its taste. Examples include tomatoes, citrus fruits, vinegar, and salty foods. It's best to avoid cooking these types of foods in magnesium and aluminum pans to prevent any potential reactions.
What happens when you increase or decrease the number of electrons in an atom?
if electrons are added to a neutral atom then it changes to a negatively charged ion (anion) and on the other hand if electrons are removed then the atom changes to positively charged ion (cation)
Why doesnt the mass number change when electrons are added or removed?
The mass number represents the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus. Electrons, which are negatively charged particles, have negligible mass compared to protons and neutrons. Therefore, adding or removing electrons does not significantly affect the mass number of an atom.
Does an atom have a charge if the neutrons equals the protons?
It depends on the amount of electrons in the outer shells. The neutrons do not affect the charge of an atom as they are already neutron. There is only a charge if there is a difference in protons and electrons, not protons and neutrons.
How do you measure a nuclear mass?
Weight of the protons and neutron in the nucleus. Electrons weigh so little, it wouldn't affect the outcome unless rounding to about 36 digits.
What adds mass to an atom but does not affect its charge?
a neutron
Can aluminum foil pass current?
Yes, aluminum foil can conduct electricity and pass current. It is a good conductor of electricity due to the movement of free electrons in its structure. However, the thickness and quality of the foil can affect how efficiently it conducts electricity.
How can scientists tell the difference between elements if they can't do it by neutron number or electron charge?
Scientists differentiate elements based on the number of protons. The number of neutrons or electrons doesn't affect the type of element it is.
How many electrons does it take to equal to the mass of one proton?
electrons are a 2000th of the mass of a proton/neutron. Because of this very low mass, electrons dont affect the mass number of elements on the periodic table
Does removing your tonsils affect your hearing?
No it does not.
How would adding a neutron to an atom affect its atomic number?
Atomic number = Number of protons. So addition of neutron has no affect on the atomic number.Isotopes of the same element are formed by the change in neutrons.
How would an electron shell affect the ability of the material to conduct electricity?
Electrical conduction is due to the large number of free electrons present in good conductors like copper, silver, gold, and aluminum, rather than electrons bound to the atoms of the material in electron shells.
What is the only particle that can change in number for an isotope?
The Neutron- An element with the same number of protons and electrons, but with a different number of neutrons per atom than the original element is called an "isotope". An isotope will have, for all intensive purposes, about the same chemical and physical properties as the original element. Isotopes are written as the element, followed by a dash, then the number of neutrons in one atom of that isotope (Carbon-13 is an isotope of carbon with 13 neutrons per atom)
Can you recycle aluminum foil?
Yes. Anodizing does not affect the recycle-ability of aluminum alloys.
