Answer:

5 protons, 6 neutrons, and 5 electrons.

Explanation:

An isotope is an element which has the same number of protons. However, it has a different number of neutrons. A proton has a positive charge. A electron has a negative charge and a neutron has no/neutral charge. They are five protons because the atomic number is 5. Furthermore, atomic number gives you the number of protons. They are six neutrons since 11 - 6 = 5. You use the atomic mass to find that out. In order to find the atomic mass, it is number of protons + the number of neutrons. They are five electrons since the isotope is a neutral atom. Unless it is an ion, there won't either be an increase or decrease in electrons. An ion is an element that either has a positive or negative charge. For example, if Lithium has 3 protons, 4 neutrons, and 5 electrons, then lithium has an 2- charge. It has two more electrons more than protons. Therefore, it is written as li^2-. Another example is if Carbon has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 2 electrons, then Carbon has a +4 charge. It has four more protons than electrons. Therefore, it is written as C^+4.

Don't forget this; thank you. (I take AP Chemistry).

A sample of 508.4 grams of copper completely reacted with oxygen to form 572.4 grams of a copper oxide product. how many grams o

Svet_ta [14]

According to law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be destroyed nor created in a chemical reaction. Thus, sum of masses of reactants must be equal to sum of masses of products in a reaction.

The chemical reaction is as follows:

$2Cu+O_{2}\rightarrow 2CuO$

Here, sum of masses of Cu and oxygen gas should be equal to CuO formed.

$2m_{Cu}+m_{O_{2}}=2m_{CuO}$

Thus, mass of oxygen will be:

$m_{O_{2}}=2(572.4-508.4)g=128 g$

This can be further proved as follows:

The balanced chemical reaction is as follows:

$2Cu+O_{2}\rightarrow 2CuO$

Here, 2 moles of Cu completely reacts with 1 mole of $O_{2}$ to give 2 moles of $CuO$ .

Thus, 1 mole of Cu reacts with 0.5 moles of $O_{2}$ .

The mass of Cu is 508.4 and molar mass is 63.546 g/mol, number of moles can be calculated as follows:

$n=\frac{m}{M}=\frac{508.4 g}{63.546 g/mol}=8 mol$

Thus, number of moles of $O_{2}$ reacting will be:

$n_{O_{2}}=8\times 0.5 mol=4 mol$

Molar mass of oxygen molecule is 32 g/mol thus, mass can be calculated as follows:

m=n×M=4 mol×32 g/mol=128 g/mol

This satisfies the law of conservation of mass.

An object accelerates 3.0 m/s2 when a force of 6.0 Newton’s is applied to it. What is the mass of the object?

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:2kg

Explanation:

Mass =?

Acceleration = 3.0 m/s2

Force = 6.0N

Force = Mass x Acceleration

6 = Mass x 3

Mass =6/3 = 2Kg

(a) The mass density of a gaseous compound was found to be 1.23 kg m^−3 at 330 K and 20 kPa. What is the molar mass of the compo

Luden [163]

Answer:

The molar mass of the compound is:- 168.82 g/mol

The molar mass of the gas is:- 16.38 g/mol

Explanation:

(a)

Using ideal gas equation as:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Also,

Moles = mass (m) / Molar mass (M)

Density (d) = Mass (m) / Volume (V)

So, the ideal gas equation can be written as:

$PM=dRt$

Given that:-

Pressure = 20 kPa = 20000 Pa

The expression for the conversion of pressure in Pascal to pressure in atm is shown below:

P (Pa) = $\frac {1}{101325}$ P (atm)

20000 Pa = $\frac {20000}{101325}$ atm

Pressure = 0.1974 atm

Temperature = 330 K

d = 1.23 kg/m³ = 1.23 g/L

Molar mass = ?

Applying the equation as:

0.1974 atm × M = 1.23 g/L × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 330 K

⇒M = 168.82 g/mol

<u>The molar mass of the compound is:- 168.82 g/mol</u>

(b)

Given that:

Pressure = 152 Torr

Temperature = 298 K

Volume = 250 cm³ = 0.25 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

$PV=nRT$

R = $62.3637\text{torr}mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

Applying the equation as:

152 Torr × 0.25 L = n × 62.3637 L.torr/K.mol × 298 K

⇒n = 0.002045 moles

Given that :

Mass of the gas = 33.5 mg = 0.0335 g

Molar mass = ?

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$0.002045\ moles
= \frac{0.0335\ g}{Molar\ mass}$

<u>The molar mass of the gas is:- 16.38 g/mol</u>

Which procedure cannot be performed on a hot plate, requiring a Bunsen burner instead

ankoles [38]

Answer: Heating a crucible to remove water from a hydrate.

Explanation:

The options are:

a. Heating a solvent to help a solute dissolve.

b. Heating an isolated solid to dry it.

c. Heating water to boiling for a water bath.

d. Heating a crucible to remove water from a hydrate.

The procedure that can be performed on a hot plate are:

a. Heating a solvent to help a solute dissolve.

b. Heating an isolated solid to dry it.

c. Heating water to boiling for a water bath.

It should be noted that the hot plate cannot be used for heating of crucible in order to remove water from a hydrate. It is not advisable for someone to heat any silica or ceramic objects on a hot plate.

Therefore, heating a crucible to remove water from a hydrate is the correct option.

At 50 degree C pK_w = 13.26. What is the pH of pure water at this temperature?

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

6.63

Explanation:

From the relationship;

pH = pKw/2

Pkw = 13.26

Then it follows that;

pH = 6.63

Hence if. pKw = 13.26, the pH = 6.63
