    of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons are positively charged subatomic particles with a relative mass of one. Neutrons are neutrally charged subatomic particles with a relative mass of one as well. The nucleus contains both the protons and the neutrons. Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles with a relative mass of 1/200. Though protons and neutrally differ drastically in size, their relatives charges are equal. Protons have a charge of +1 and electrons a charge of -1.…

    has an oxidation number of +3. Therefore, there are four electrons in the d orbital of a cobalt in this complex. Figure 8 gives the possible high spin and low spin combinations for four d orbital electrons. The high spin config- uration has four unpaired electrons and the low spin configuration has two unpaired electrons. Figure 7. High and low spins for cobalt d electrons in Co(NO3)2·6H2O Figure 8. High and low spins for cobalt d electrons in Co(NH3)6Cl3 The cobalt complex containing…

    Particle Relative Charge Relative Mass Proton +1 1 Neutron 0 1 Electron -1 2. Explain the meaning of the terms, ATOMIC NUMBER and MASS NUMBER of an atom in terms of sub atomic particles. The atomic number refers to the number of protons in an atom, the mass number refers to the number of protons plus the number of neutrons (Bbc.co.uk 2015). 3. A neutral atom contains the same number of protons and electrons. Briefly explain why. If an atom is to be positively charged, it has…

    subatomic particles: electrons, protons and neutrons. For which the Nucleus contains the Protons and Neutrons, while electrons orbit around the nucleus. The atom is a fundamental piece of matter. Atoms are the building blocks of matter and matter builds up the Universe. A Valence Electron is an electron, which is a subatomic particle of an atom. Valence electrons are located in the outermost shell of the atom, these can be transferred to or shared with another atom. Valence electrons are…

    although there was some difficulty in obtaining the small amounts required through the needle of the syringe but after a couple of tries the problem was overcome. Some basic fundamental principles demonstrated in the results are understanding the configuration of chiral molecules. Also, a better understanding of the 3-Dimensional shape of these molecules is achieved. After this experiment we had a better comprehension of how NMR graphs tend to look and that only one peak is given off for…

    particles, called electrons, were suspended in a positively charged solution. Thomson’s theory was proven when he tested his hypothesis by what became known as the Cathode Ray Tube Experiment. During this experiment Thomson thought that electrons were evenly distributed throughout the atom. His discovery was based on the fact that the negatively charged cathode ray bent away from a positive charge. Thomson’s Cathode Ray Tube Experiment ended up in the discovery of the electron, the negatively…
