Formation of strong phosphorous-oxygen bonds drives the Wittig reaction. Phosphorous is extremely oxophilic, meaning that it forms strong bonds with oxygen.

Which neutral atom is isoelectronic with o+?
sukhopar [10]
Isoelectronic means equal number of electrons.

O+ is formed when the atom of O loses 1 electron.

The number of electrons of neutral O atom equals its number of protons.

Number of protons identifies the atomic number and position of the element in the periodic table.

The positon of O in the periodic table is A = 8, so it has 8 electrons and O+ has 8 - 1 = 7 electrons.

The neutral atom with one electron less than O is of the element to the left of O in the periodic table (A = 7). That element is N.

Therefore, the neutral atom isoelectronic with O+ is N (both have 7 electrons).

a student adds 3.5 moles of solute to enough water to make a 1500mL solution. what is the concentration?
aksik [14]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

MolarConcentration=\frac{3.5moles}{volume(1.5L)}=2.33molar

<h2>Why?</h2>

Since there is not information about the solute but only its mass, we need to assume that we are calculating the molar concentration of a solution or molarity. So, need to use the following formula:

MolarConcentration=\frac{mass(solute)}{volume(solution)}

Now, we know that the mass of the solute is equal  3.5 moles and the volume is equal to 1500 mL or 1.5L

Then, substituting into the equation, we have:

MolarConcentration=\frac{3.5moles}{1.5L}=2.33molar

Have a nice day!

Enter the expression 14/7N+α, where α is the lowercase Greek letter alpha. Express your answer as a chemical expression.
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

<em>¹⁴₇N + ⁴₂He → ¹⁷ ₈O + ¹₁p</em>


Explanation:


¹⁴₇N represents the isotope of nitrogen-14, where the superscript 14 to the left of the chemical symbol of the element  is the mass number (number of protons and neutrons) and the subscripst 7 is the atomic number (number of protons).


α is used to represent alpha particles. Alpha particles are nucleus of helium, ⁴₂He: mass number 4, atomic number 2,

The expression ¹⁴₇N + α represents a nuclear reaction: the nucleus of the isotope of nitrogen-14 (¹⁴₇N) is hit by α-particles ( ⁴₂He).


As result, the nucleus of ¹⁴₇N absorbs 1 proton, increasing its atomic number and mass number in 1, becoming ¹⁷ ₈O. In this process, also one proton is produced.


The total reaction is represented by ¹⁴₇N + ⁴₂He → ¹⁷ ₈O + ¹₁p, where you can verify the mass balance:


Mass numbers: 14 + 4 = 17 + 1 = 18.

Number of protons: 7 + 2 = 8 + 1 = 9.

If a 100.-g sample of platinum metal has a volume of 4.67 ml, what is the density of platinum in g/cm3?
Mariulka [41]
The density of any substance does not change at a certain temperature and pressure. Even though mass and volume are intensive properties (depends on the amount of substance), density is not. It is merely a fixed ratio of mass to volume. Therefore, the solution is

Density = Mass/Volume
For your information, quantitatively, cm³ is equivalent to mL.
Density = 100 g/4.67 cm³ = 21.41 g/cm³
