Answer:

(a) 5.1 × 10²

(b) 86

(c) 6.4 × 10³

(d) 5.0

(e) 22

(f) 0.89

Explanation:

To round off a number, we consider the number that is to its right. If that number is 5 or higher, we increase the number of interest. If the number to the right is 4 or lower, the number of interest remains the same. When taking less significant figures, we might need to use scientific notation for large or small numbers.

<em>Round off each of the following numbers to </em><em>two</em><em> significant figures: </em>

<em>(a) 517</em>   → 5.1 × 10²

<em>(b) 86.3</em>  → 86

<em>(c) 6.382 × 10³ </em> → 6.4 × 10³

<em>(d) 5.0008</em>  → 5.0

<em>(e) 22.497</em>  → 22

<em>(f) 0.885</em> → 0.89

What is the fraction of the hydrogen atom's mass (11h) that is in the nucleus? the mass of proton is 1.007276 u, and the mass of
ololo11 [35]
Hello there!

To determine the fraction of the hydrogen atom's mass that is in the nucleus, we have to keep in mind that a Hydrogen atom has 1 proton and 1 electron. Protons are in the nucleus while electrons are in electron shells surrounding the nucleus. The mass of the nucleus will be equal to the mass of 1 proton and we can express the fraction as follows:

Mass Fraction= \frac{mass 1 Proton}{mass H atom} = \frac{1,007276 u}{1,007825}=0,9995

So, the fraction of the hydrogen atom's mass that is in the nucleus is 0,9995. That means that almost all the mass of this atom is at the nucleus.

Have a nice day!

Which of these correctly defines the pOH of a solution? the log of the hydronium ion concentration the negative log of the hydro
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer : The correct option is, the negative log of the hydroxide ion concentration.

Explanation :

pOH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration. It is a measure of the alkalinity of the solution.

Formula used :

pOH=-log[OH^-]

[OH^-] is the concentration of OH^- ions.

When pOH is less than 7, the solution is alkaline.

When pOH is more than 7, the solution is acidic.

When pOH is equal to 7, the solution is neutral.

Consider the reaction. X ( g ) + Y ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − Z ( g ) K p = 1.00 at 300 K In which direction will the net reaction proceed fo
marta [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We have in this question the equilibrium

X ( g ) + Y ( g ) ⇆  Z ( g )

With the equilibrium contant Kp = pZ/(pX x pY)

The moment we change the concentration of Y, we are changing effectively the partial pressure of Y since pressure and concentration are directly proportional

pV = nRT ⇒ p = nRT/V and n/V is molarity.

Therefore we can calculate the reaction quotient Q

Qp = pZ/(pX x pY) = 1/ 1  x 0.5 atm = 2

Since Qp is greater than Kp the system proceeds from right to left.

We could also arrive to the same conclusion by applying LeChatelier´s principle which states that any disturbance in the equilibrium, the system will react in such a way to counteract the change to restore the equilibrium. Therefore, by having reduced the pressure of Y the system will react favoring the reactants side increasing some of the y pressure until restoring the equilibrium Kp = 1.

melisa1 [442]

We have to know the number of Na⁺ ions in the unit cell.

The number of Na⁺ ions in the unit cell is (D) 8.

Sodium oxide (Na2O) crystallizes in a structure in which the O2– ions are in a face - centered cubic lattice and the Na+ ions are in tetrahedral holes.

O²⁻ ions are in a face centred cubic lattice, so the number of O²⁻ ions per unit cell is equal to 4. The number of  tetrahedral hole= 2 X 4=8. Na+ ions are present in tetrahedral holes, which indicates there are 8 number of Na+ ions in the unit cell.
