2.24 Consider an atom of 63Cu. (a) How many protons, neutrons,
and electrons does this atom contain? (b) What is the sym-
bol of the ion obtained by removing two electrons from
63Cu? (c) What is the symbol for the isotope of 63 Cu that pos-
sesses 36 neutrons?

Respuesta :

The symbol of the on obtained by removing two electrons from 63Cu is Cu^2+.

What is an atom?

The atom is the smallest particle of  a substance that can take place in a chemical reaction. Now we know that the atom is composed of the protons, the electrons and the neutrons. The protons and the neutrons are found in the nucleus while the electrons are found in the orbits.

Now, for 63Cu,

  • There are 29 protons and electrons
  • There are 34 neutrons

The symbol of the on obtained by removing two electrons from 63Cu is Cu^2+. The isotope that contains 36 neutrons is 65Cu.
