A certain element is a clear, stable gas at room temperature. An atom of this element has 7 protons, 7 electrons, and a mass number of 15. How many neutrons are in this atom?

Answers

Answer 1

Number of neutrons = 8

Further explanation

Given

7 protons, 7 electrons, and a mass number of 15.

Required

Number of neutrons

Solution

Within the atom there are subparticles, namely protons, neutrons and electrons

Protons and neutrons are present in the atomic nucleus, while electrons surround the atomic nucleus in the atomic shell

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number= number of protons + number of neutrons

15 = 7 + number of neutrons

number of neutrons = 8

The viscosity of intestinal contents should define the mixing, diffusion and flow of nutrients and other materials in digesta (1–4). The viscosity of intestinal contents has been measured only after the removal of solid particles by centrifugation (5,6), under the assumption that particles or insoluble fibers in the diet do not affect the viscosity of gut contents (7). However, the complete removal of solid particles considerably reduced the coefficient of viscosity of pig cecal contents and changed the contents from a non-Newtonian to a Newtonian fluid in our recent study

What makes a metal and a non metal most
reactive? Where in the PT will you find the most
reactive metal and the most reactive non metal.?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The reactivity of elements in the periodic table is based on the number of electrons in there outermost shell. Elements (metals) that have few electrons in there outermost shell are highly reactive because it is easier to lose fewer number of electrons (in the outermost shell during a reaction) than to lose more electrons in the outermost shell - thus metals that have one electron in there outermost shell are most reactive and are more reactive than those that have two electrons in there outermost shell. Hence, metals in group 1 are the most reactive metals because they all have one electron in there outermost shell.

Non-metals that have fewer electrons to complete there octet configuration are highly reactive because it is easier to gain fewer number of electrons (in the outermost shell during a reaction) than to gain more number of electrons - thus nonmetals that have seven electrons in there outermost shell are more reactive than nonmetals that have six electrons in there outermost shell. Hence, nonmetals in group 17 are the most reactive nonmetals because they contain seven electrons and have just one electron left to complete there octet configuration.

Law of conservation of mass

Ernest Rutherford

Explanation:

The basic law of behavior of matter that states that "mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction or physical change".

This is the law of conservation of mass. It is very essential in understanding most chemical reaction. Also, in quantitative analysis, this law is pivotal.

Ernest Rutherford was the scientist that stated that the nucleus is made up of positive charge. It was not until James Chadwick in 1932 discovered the neutron that we had an understanding of this nuclear component.

Rutherford surmised from his experiment that because most the alpha particles passed through the thin Gold foil and just a tiny fraction was deflected back, the atom is made is made up of small nucleus that is positively charged.

To launch a rocket, liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen are combined inside the rocket engine to react explosively. How do you think scientists take into account the law of conservation of mass when they calculate the amount of fuel needed for a rocket launch?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

In this chemistry lab, students investigate how to build and launch a simple rocket that uses hydrogen and oxygen gases that will be mixed to propel the rocket (large bulb plastic pipette). Students will understand the principles of combustion reactions, kinetics, stoichiometry of reactions, activation energy, explosive mixtures, rocketry, and different types of chemical reactions. Students will explore and determine the proportions of hydrogen and oxygen mixture that will achieve the best launch results. Students will compare the balanced chemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen with their lab results; students should discover that the optimal distance occurs when the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen is two to one hydrogen, oxygen mixture ratio and this can be determined theoretically from the balanced chemical reaction equation. Students will perform the lab, collect data, and discuss, compare, and contrast their lab findings with the balanced chemical reaction equation. Students will present their structured inquiry investigations using a power-point presentation. Other groups along with the teacher will assess each group by using a provided rubric. Group assessments will be the deciding assessment for the final lab score. A follow up activity could investigate how NASA scientists launch real rockets into space and propose a procedure to investigate and collect data on a launching a heavier object at the school football field.

500 gramos de un mineral con una riqueza en cinc del 65 % se hacen reaccionar con una disolucion de acido sulfurico de riqueza 96 % en peso y densidad 1823 kg/m3 . Calcula:

Answers

Answer:

Ver explicación abajo

Explanation:

LA pregunta esta incompleta, pero logré conseguir un ejercicio muy parecido a este con datos similares, y la pregunta que falta como tal son estas:

"a) La cantidad de sal producida.

b)  Moléculas de hidrógeno obtenidas a 25 ºC y 740 mm Hg.

c)  El volumen de la disolución de ácido necesario para la reacción."

Asumiendo que estos son los datos faltantes, hay que ver como resolver por parte:

a) Cantidad de sal producida.

En este caso debemos plantear la reacción que se lleva a cabo. Es un mineral que tiene Zinc y reacciona con acido sulfurico, por tanto la reacción que se lleva a cabo en teoría es:

Zn + H₂SO₄ -----------> ZnSO₄ + H₂

Entonces, queremos saber la cantidad de ZnSO₄ que se formó.

Para eso, debemos calcular primero cuantos gramos de zinc hay originalmente en la muestra, que son los que reaccionaron para formar esta sal, y luego los moles para que por medio de estequiometría, calculemos los moles de la sal.

Para la masa de Zinc, sabemos que el mineral contiene 65% de zinc o 0,65 entonces:

mZn = 0,65 * 500 = 325 g

Calculamos los moles usando la masa molecular de Zinc que es 65,37 g/mol:

moles = 325 / 65,37 = 4.97 moles

Ahora bien, como la reacción de arriba está bien balanceada, podemos asuimr por estequiometría que la relación Zn / ZnSO₄ es 1:1, asi que los moles de Zn serán los mismos de la sal por tanto:

moles Zn = moles ZnSO₄ = 4,97 moles

Calculando la masa molecular de ZnSO₄:

MM ZnSO₄ = 65,37 + 32 + (16 * 4) = 161,37 g/mol

Finalmente la masa de la sal es:

m ZnSO₄ = 4,97 * 161,37

mZnSO₄ = 802,01 g

b) Moléculas de hidrógeno obtenidas

PAra este caso, ya tenemos los moles de Zn, y por estequiometría, todas las especies presentes están en relación 1:1, así que los moles de hidrógeno son los mismos de zinc. No es necesario el dato de temperatura y presión acá pues ya tenemos los moles.

Para conocer el número de moléculas, necesitamos el número de abogadro que es 6.02x10²³ por lo tanto las moléculas de hidrógeno:

Moléculas de hidrógeno = 6,02x10²³ * 4,97

Moléculas de hidrógeno = 2.99x10²⁴ moléculas de H₂

c) Volúmen de ácido empleado

Finalmente para el ácido, como ya conocemos los moles empleados, podemos calcular la masa del ácido usando su peso molecular:

MM H₂SO₄ = (2*1) + 32 + (4*16) = 98 g/mol

m H₂SO₄ = 4,97 * 98 = 487,06 g

Ahora que ya sabemos su masa, solo calculamos la masa realmente usada (pues su %p/p es 96%) y con la densidad calculamos el volumen:

d = m/v

v = m/d

m H₂SO₄ (puro) = 487,96 * 0,96 = 467,58 g

El volumen será:

V = 467,58 g / 1,823

V = 256,49 mL

They all tend to become positive ions when they bond with other elements.
They all have similar chemical and physical properties.
They all have two electrons in their outermost shell.
They are all metals.

Answers

Answer:

they all have two electrons in their outermost shell

The elements of group 2 are alkaline earth metals that have two electrons in their outermost shell. So they have similar chemical and physical properties and tend to become positive ions in bond formation.

What are the properties of the elements of group 2?

The elements present in group 2 include Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.  

The elements of group 2 are similar in their physical and chemical properties as all the elements have the same number of valence electrons. All alkaline earth metals are silvery-white-colored solids under normal conditions. They are also shiny and quite reactive.

The general electronic configuration of group 2 elements is ns². The alkaline earth metals have fully filled s-orbital in their valence shells, they tend to lose two electrons to produce cations with +2 charge.

Therefore, the elements of group 2 are electropositive in nature. Therefore, all the given statements about group 2 of the periodic table are true.

Answer:

The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in  the  products

Explanation:

The expression that best describes this reaction is that the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

During the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide combines with water using solar energy to produce glucose and oxygen.

It can expressed as depicted below:

       6CO₂  +  6H₂O  →  C₆H₁₂O₆  + 6O₂

To validate our choice;

 This is a balanced chemical equation:

        6 moles of carbon is found on the reactant side and also, 6 mole of carbon on the product side.

But Glucose is not found on both sides of the expression

Answer:

answer 1

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy establishes that the masses are not destroyed, they can only be transformed.

Therefore the mass of carbon in the reactants (CO2 and H2O) must be in the products (glucose and oxygen)

so the correct statement is the first

The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

Determine the number of atoms of 25 g iron(II) chloride​

Answers

Answer:

3.56x10²³ atoms

Explanation:

To solve this question we need first to determine the moles of iron (II) chloride, FeCl₂, using its molar mass. Then, using Avogadro's number we can solve for the number of atoms:

Moles FeCl₂ - Molar mass: 126.751g/mol-

25g FeCl₂ * (1mol / 126.751g) = 0.1972 moles

Number of atoms:

1 mole of FeCl₂ are 6.022x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂, that means 0.1972moles are:

0.1972mol * (6.022x10²³ molecules / 1mol) = 1.188x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂

In 1 molecule of FeCl₂ there are 3 atoms (1 of Fe and 2 of Cl), in 1.188x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂ there are:

1.188x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂ * (3atoms / molecule) =

3.56x10²³ atoms
