11. Consider the elements neon, bromine, and phosphorus. Which has five electrons in its 4p sublevel?
B. An electron has a neutral electrical charge.
C. An electron is much larger than an atom.
D. An electron is located inside the nucleus of an atom.
Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
An atom consists of three sub atomic particles. These particles are protons, electrons and neutrons.
Protons have a positive charge. Whereas neutrons have no charge. On the other hand, electrons have a negative charge.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, an electron has a negative electrical charge is the correct statement.
Answer:
Explained below.
Explanation:
Formula when magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid is given by;
Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) = MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)
So, from the equation, we can see that the gas formed is hydrogen.
This hydrogen gas is collected by a method known as water displacement.
This gas can be tested for by holding a burning splint near to the top of the test container. The resulting effect should be a high pitched pop sound because the hydrogen gas will react with the oxygen gas in the air to result in a small explosion.
b. They release hydroxide ions in solution.
c. They tend to decrease the pH of a solution.
d. They have a sharp or sour taste. explain
