Complete the following table: `|{:("Particle","Mass No.","Atomic No.","Protons","Neitrons","Electrons"),("Nitrogen atom",-,-,-,7,7),("Calcium ion",-,20,-,20,-),("Oxygen atom",16,8,-,-,-),("Bromide ion",-,-,-,45,36):}|` |
Answer» For nitrogen atom. No. of electron `=7` (given) No. of neutrons `=7` (given) `:.` No. of protons `=Z=7` ( :. Atom is electrically neutral) Atomic number `=Z=7` Mass No. (A)=No. of protons + No. of neutrons `=7+7=14` For calcium ion. No. of netrons `=20` (Given) Atomic No. (Z)`=20` (Given) `:.` No. of protons `=Z=20`, But in the formation of calcium ion, two electrons are lost from the extranuclear part according to the equation `Cararr Ca^(2+)+2e^(-)` but the composition of the nucleus remains unchanged. `:.` No. of electrons in calcium ion `=20-2=18` Mass number (A)= No. of protons + No. of neutrons `=20+20=40` For oxygen atom. Mass number (A) = No. of protons + No. of neutrons `=16` (Given) Atomic No. `(Z)=8` (Given) No. of protons `=Z=8`, No. of electrons `=Z=8` No. of neutrons `=A-Z=16-8=8` For bromide ion. No. of neutrons `=45` (given) No. of electrons `=36` (given) But in the formation of bromide ion, one electron is gained by nuclear part according to equation `Br+e^(-) rarr Br^(-),` But the composition of nucleus remains ubchanged. `:.` No. of protons in bromide ion = No. of electrons in bromine atom `=36-1=35` Atomic number (Z) = No. of protons `=35` Mass number (A)= No. of neutrons + No. of protons `=45+35=80` |
