are atomic number of uncommon elements given in balancing equation in science board paper?
Answers
Explanation:
Valency of an element : It is the number of electrons of an atom of the element uses to combine with atoms of other elements.
It is the combining power of an atom of the element.
Valency of an atom is determined by its electronic configuration.
It gives idea about the number of electrons loss or gain in order to achieve the nearest noble gas configuration.
For example: Na(11) = 2,8,1 So, its valency is 1
Cl(17) = 2,8,7 So, its valency is also 1
Number of valence electron : It is defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom.
It is not necessary that all the valence electrons take part in bonding.
For example: Na(11) = 2,8,1 So, its number of valence electron is 1
Cl(17) = 2,8,7 So its number of valence electron is 7
It can be seen that valency of an element is related to number of valence electrons in that atom.
c.Atomic Mass Number : It is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in a nucleus.
Atomic mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.
Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons. It is denoted by Z.
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons. It is denoted by A.
For example : Carbon atom its, Number of proton = 6
Number of neutrons = 6
Number of electron = 6
Atomic number(Z) = number of protons = number of electrons = 6.
Mass number(A) = number of proton + number of neutrons = 6 + 6 =12.
