r testing by scientists (with better equipment), it is found that the new element contains 74 protons and 110 neutrons. Use Page 495 and the Periodic Table (Pages 500-501) to answer the following questions about this new element.
1. What is the atomic number of this element? _____________¬¬___________

2. What is the mass number of this element? _________________________

3. Is this really a new element? Explain your reasoning.


4. Give the name and symbol for this element.___________________________________

5. When the students discovered it, did they find a solid, a liquid, or a gas? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

1) The atomic number of this element is 74, because number of protons = atomic number

2) Mass number of this element is 184

Ar=Z+N=74+110=184

3) It isn't a new element. An element with such atomic and mass numbers exists

4) It is Wolfram. Symbol: W

5) Solid

Sorry if I made mistakes. I started learning English recently.

Answer:

Explanation:

We are given that  number of protons in  new element =74

Number of neutrons in new element =110

We know that

1.Atomic number = Total number of protons

Atomic number of new element =74

Mass number = Number of protons+number of neutrons

2.Mass number of new element =74+110=184

3.It is not new element .It had already exits in periodic table.

4.Hence, the new elements is tungsten or wolfram.

Symbol of tungsten is W.

5.It is a metal and all metals except mercury are solids.Therefore, tungsten is a solid.

The element thallium is 70% thallium-205 and 30% thallium-203. Calculate its relative atomic mass to 1 decimal place.
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

answer-

The relative atomic mass = 204.4

explanation:

Thallium -203 = 30%

Thallium -205 = 70%

Therefore ,

relative mass of thallium = (30×203 + 70×205)/100

relative mass of thallium = (20440)/100

relative mass of thallium = 204.40 amu

Thus,

relative atomic mass of thalium =204.4 ( to 1 decimal place)

Hydrazine (N2H4) and dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) form a self-igniting mixture that has been used as a rocket propellant. The rea
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

An oxidizing accepts an electron and becomes reduced while a reducing agent loses an electron and become oxidized.

Chemical equation:

1) 2 N₂H₄ + N₂O₄ → 3 N₂ + 4 H₂O

2) Hydrazine ( N₂H₄)  is being oxidized

Dinitrogen tetroxide N₂O₄ is being reduced

3) The reducing agent is Hydrazine ( N₂H₄) and the oxidizing agent is dinitrogen tetroxide (N₂O₄)

A spontaneous reaction is taking place in a flask as evidenced by the formation of gas bubbles. When you touch the flask, it feels hot and gets hotter as the reaction progresses.... (c,d,h)

A spontaneous reaction is taking place in a flask. When you touch the flask, it feels hot and gets hotter as the reaction progresses....(c,f,h)

A spontaneous reaction is taking place in a flask. You notice the formation of gas bubbles intensifies as the reaction progresses....(c,d,I)

A solid in a closed flask begins to melt. (You can consider this a phase change.)....(b,d,g)

A liquid begins to appear on the inside of a closed flask. At first glance before the liquid began to appear, you might have thought the flask was empty. (You can consider this a phase change.)....(a,e,h)

Explanation:

Now it is necessary here to state the equation for ∆G

∆G= ∆H-T∆S

The values of ∆G depends on the relative values of ∆H, T and ∆S.

When heat is evolved by a system, ∆H is negative, when heat is absorbed by a system, ∆H is positive.

When gases are evolved, ∆S is positive, when gases turn to liquids or solids ∆S is negative.

Let us also recall that, for the melting process ∆S positive ( solid changes to liquid), ∆H is positive(energy is absorbed) and T increases( the substance is heated). Hence ∆G is negative

For the condensation process; ∆H is negative (heat is evolved), ∆S is negative (gas changes to liquid) and T is decreased hence ∆G is positive.
