8 neutrons (7 protons)

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number means the sum of total number of protons acquired by an atom.

So, when atomic number of nitrogen is 7 then it means there are 7 protons present.

Whereas atomic mass means the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Therefore, nitrogen-15 is an isotope of nitrogen that will always have 7 protons when it is neutral in nature. Hence, in nitrogen-15 the number of protons and neutrons are calculated as follows.

                   Atomic mass = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                             15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 15 - 7

                                               = 8

Thus, we can conclude that the atomic nucleus of nitrogen-15 contains 8 neutrons.

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 670g of water from 25.7"C to 66,0°C? The specific heat
inna [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

q= mc theta

where,

Q = heat gained

m = mass of the substance = 670g

c = heat capacity of water= 4.1 J/g°C    

theta =Change in temperature=( 66-25.7)

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the amount of heat needed.

q= mctheta

q=670*4.1*(66-25.7)

  =670*4.1*40.3

=110704.1

If 4.9 kg of CO2 are produced during a combustion reaction, how many molecules of CO2 would be produced?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

6.7 x 10²⁶molecules

Explanation:

Given parameters

Mass of CO₂  = 4.9kg  = 4900g

Unknown:

Number of molecules  = ?

Solution:

To find the number of molecules, we need to find the number of moles first.

 Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

          Molar mass of CO₂  = 12 + 2(16)  = 44g/mol

   Number of moles  = \frac{4900}{44}  = 111.36mole

A mole of substance is the quantity of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

       1 mole  = 6.02 x 10²³molecules

     111.36 moles  =   111.36 x 6.02 x 10²³molecules   = 6.7 x 10²⁶molecules
