Answer : The correct option is, 30 protons

Explanation :

Element = Zinc

Atomic number = 30

Atomic mass number = 65

As we know that the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons and number of protons.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons = 30

Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Number of protons = 65 - 30 = 35

Therefore, the number of protons an uncharged zinc atom have 30 protons.

A sample that weighs 103.75 g is a mixture of 30% helium atoms and 70% krypton atoms. How many particles are present in the samp
aalyn [17]
1) we calculate the molar mass of He (helium) and Kr (Krypton).
atomic mass (He)=4 u
atomic mas (Kr)=83.8 u

Therefore the molar mass will be:
molar mass(He)=4 g/mol
molar mass(Kr)=83.8 g/mol.

1) We can find  the next equation:
mass=molar mass  x number of moles.

x=number of moles of helium
y=number of moles of helium. 

(4 g/mol) x  +(83.8 g/mol)y=103.75 g
Therefore, we have the next equation:

(1)

4x+83.8y=103.75


2) We can find other equation:

We have 30% helium atoms and 70% Kryptum atoms, therefore we have 30% Helium moles and 70% of Krypton moles.

1 mol  is always 6.022 * 10²³ atoms or molecules, (in this case atoms).

Then:
x=number of moles of helium
y=number of moles of helium.
(x+y)=number of moles of our sample.

x=30% of (x+y)

Therefore, we have this other equation:
(2)

x=0.3(x+y)


With the equations(1) and (2), we have the next system of equations:

4x+83.8y=103.75

x=0.3(x+y)  ⇒ x=0.3x+0.3y  ⇒    x-0.3x=0.3y  ⇒ 0.7 x=0.3y ⇒ x=0.3y/0.7
⇒x=3y/7

We solve this system of equations by substitution method.
x=3y/7

4(3y/7)+83.8y=103.75
lower common multiple)7
12y+586.6y=726.25
598.6y=726.25
y=1.21

x=3y/7=3(1.21)/7=0.52

We have 0.52 moles of  helium and 1.21 moles of Krypton.

1 mol=6.022 * 10²³ atoms

Total number of particles=(6.022 *10²³ atoms /1 mol) (number of moles of He+ number of moles of Kr).

Total number of particles=6.022 * 10²³ (0.52+1.21)=6.022 * 10²³ (1.73)=
=1.044 * 10²⁴ atoms.

Answer: The sample have 1.044 * 10²⁴ atoms.

Enter the chemical equation 2H+(aq)+S2−(aq)→H2S(g). Express your answer as a chemical equation.
amm1812

Answer : The complete chemical equation is,

2H^+(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2S(aq)

Explanation :

As we know that, in a chemical equation the reacting species present on left side and the product formed present on right side and a right arrow inserted between the reactants and product that show a chemical reaction taking place.

In the chemical reaction, the phases of the substances are also included and subscripts and superscripts are also used for the numbers.

For the given chemical reaction, the balanced chemical equation including the phases, is given by:

2H^+(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2S(aq)

Only one isotope of this element occurs in nature. one atom of this isotope has a mass of 9.123 ✕ 10-23 g. identify the element
o-na [289]

The atom has only one isotope which means 100 % of same atom is present in nature. The atomic mass of an element is the number of times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of carbon taken as 12. Mass of one atom of that isotope is 9.123 ✕ 10⁻²³ g, so mass of one mole of atom that is Avogadro's number of atom is 6.023 X 10²³  X 9.123 X 10⁻²³ g=54.94 g = 55 g (approximate).

So, the atom having atomic mass 55 will be Cesium (Cs). Only one isotope of Cesium is stable in nature.

The  moles  of  chromium (iii)  nitrate  produced  is  calculated  as   follows

write  the  equation  for  reaction

 3  Pb(NO3)2  +  2 Cr  =  2 Cr(NO3)3  +  3  Pb

by  use  of  mole  ratio  between  Pb(NO3)2  to  Cr(NO3)3  which  is  3  :  2  the  moles  of  Cr(NO3)3  is therefore  
=  0.85  x2  /3  =  0.57   moles
