Each molecule of boron trifluoride (BF3) contains 3 fluorine atoms. Hence, 8 molecules BF3 would contain 24 fluorine atoms. Calculate the number of moles of fluorine,
     (24 fluorine atoms) x (1 mole/ 6.022 x10^23 atoms) = 3.985 x10^-23 moles fluorine

Multiply this number of moles by the molar mass of fluorine which is equal to 19 g/mol. The answer would be 4.78x10^-22 grams.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

             7.57 × 10⁻²² g of F

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Data Given:

                 Number of Molecules  =  8

                 M.Mass of BF₃ =  67.82 g.mol⁻¹

                 Mass of Fluorine atoms  =  ?

Step 1: Calculate Moles of BF₃

           Moles  =  Number of Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹

Putting value,

            Moles  =   8 Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹

            Moles  =  1.33 × 10⁻²³ mol

Step 2: Calculate Mass of BF₃:

                   Moles  =  Mass ÷ M.Mass

Solving for Mass,

                   Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

Putting values,

                   Mass  =  1.33 × 10⁻²³ mol × 67.82 g.mol⁻¹

                   Mass  =  9.0 × 10⁻²² g

Step 3: Calculate Mass of Fluorine Atoms:

As,

                         67.82 g BF₃ contains  =  57 g of F

So,

                    9.0 × 10⁻²² g will contain  =  X g of F

Solving for X,

                       X =  (9.0 × 10⁻²² g × 57 g) ÷ 67.82 g

                        X  =  7.57 × 10⁻²² g of F

Why are the concentrations of [H3O+] and [OH−] equal in pure water?
kotegsom [21]

Answer : The correct option is, (A) [H_3O^+]=[OH^-] because one of each is produced every time an [H^+] transfers from one water molecule to another.

Explanation :

As we know that, when the two water molecule combine to produced hydronium ion and hydroxide ion.

The balanced reaction will be:

HOH+HOH\rightarrow H_3O^++OH^-

Acid : It is a substance that donates hydrogen ion when dissolved in water.

Base : It is a substance that accepts hydrogen ion when dissolved in water.

From this we conclude that, the hydrogen ion are transferred from one water molecule to the another water molecule to form hydronium ion and hydroxide ion. In this reaction, one water molecule will act as a base and another water molecule will act as an acid.

Hence, the correct option is, (A)

Sodium acetate spontaneously crystallizes out of a supersaturated solution upon standing or upon the addition of a seed crystal.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

According to 2nd law of thermodynamics, every spontaneous process is associated with increase in entropy (\Delta S>0).

As sodium acetate crystallizes out spontaneously therefore it is associated with \Delta S>0.

During crystallization, bond formation takes place which results evolution of heat. In other words, crystallization phenomenon is exothermic (\Delta H).

So, the given crystallization process renders the following thermodynamic quantities- \Delta S>0 J/K and \Delta H J

Option (c) is correct.

Is utensils a substance homogeneous mixture or heterogeneous mixture
Phoenix [80]

A pure substance or a homogeneous mixture consists of a single phase. A heterogeneous mixture consists of two or more phases. When oil and water are combined, they do not mix evenly, but instead form two separate layers.

Find the age t of a sample, if the total mass of carbon in the sample is mc, the activity of the sample is a, the current ratio
Paha777 [63]
N₀ is the number of C-14 atoms per kg of carbon in the original sample at time = Os when its carbon was of the same kind as that present in the atmosphere today. After time ts, due to radioactive decay, the number of C-14 atoms per kg of carbon is the same sample which has decreased to N. λ is the radioactive decay constant.
Therefore N = N₀e-λt which is the radioactive decay equation,
N₀/N = eλt In (N₀.N= λt. This is the equation 1
The mass of carbon which is present in the sample os mc kg. So the sample has a radioactivity of A/mc decay is/kg. r is the mass of C-14 in original sample at t= 0 per total mass of carbon in a sample which is equal to [(total number of C-14 atoms in the sample at t m=m 0) × ma]/ total mass of carbon in the sample.
Now that the total number of C-14 atoms in the sample at t= 0/ total mass of carbon in sample = N₀ then r = N₀×ma
So N₀ = r/ma. this equation 2.
 The activity of the radioactive substance is directly proportional to the number of atoms present at the time.
Activity = A number of decays/ sec = dN/dt = λ(number of atoms of C-14 present at time t) = 
λ₁(N×mc). By rearranging we get N = A/(λmc) this is equation 3.
By plugging in equation 2 and 3 and solve t to get
t = 1/λ In (rλmc/m₀A).
