tellurium hexafluoride | proton count
Result
![Determine the number of protons in: tellurium hexafluoride (TeF_6) Plan: • Use the summation: N_protons = sum_i N_i Z_i. • Determine the values of N_i and Z_i. • Compute the number of protons. Use the chemical formula, TeF_6, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i F | 6 Te | 1 Look up the atomic number, Z_i, for each element in the periodic table. The number of protons per atom is equal to the atomic number: | N_i | Z_i F | 6 | 9 Te | 1 | 52 Multiply N_i by Z_i to compute the number of protons for each element: | N_i | Z_i | N_i Z_i F | 6 | 9 | 6 × 9 = 54 Te | 1 | 52 | 1 × 52 = 52 Sum the N_i Z_i terms to compute the number of protons, N_protons: Answer: | | N_protons = 54 + 52 = 106](../image_source/43788ff9c9c7caab4da218b75ebeb71d.png)
