and a charge of −2
. Determine the number of neutrons, protons, and electrons in this ion.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Neutron number = 43

2. Proton number = 34

3. Electron number = 36

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass number = 77

Charge of ion = –2

1. Determination of the number of neutron.

Mass number of Se = 77

Atomic number = 34

Neutron number =?

NOTE: Atomic number = proton number

Mass number = Proton + Neutron

77 = 34 + Neutron

Collect like terms

77 – 34 = Neutron

Neutron number = 43

2. Determination of the proton number.

The atomic number of an element is simply defined as the number of protons in the atom of the element. Mathematically,

Atomic number = Proton number

Atomic number of Se = 34

Therefore, the proton number of Se²¯ is 34.

NOTE: The atomic number does not change be it atom, ion or molecule. It remains the same.

3. Determination of electron number.

Charge of ion = –2

Proton number = 34

Electron number =?

Proton – Electron = Charge

34 – Electron = –2

Rearrange

34 + 2 = Electron

36 = Electron

Electron number = 36

Answer 2

There are 43 neutrons, 34 protons, and 36 electrons in the given selenium ion with a (-2) charge.

Explanation:

Given:

A selenium ion with a mass number of 77  and a charge of (-2).

To find:

The number of neutrons, protons, and electrons in selenium ion

Solution:

Charge on the selenium  ion = -2

The atomic number of selenium = 34

Number of protons = Atomic number

Number of protons in selenium atom = 34

Number of protons in selenium ion = 34

Number of electrons in selenium atom = 34

Number of electrons in selenium ion=  34+2 = 36

(anion is formed by gaining of electrons that is why adding two electrons )

The mass number of selenium = 77

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

77 = 34 + Number of neutrons in selenium

Number of neutrons in selenium ion = 77 - 34 = 43

There are 43 neutrons, 34 protons, and 36 electrons in the given selenium ion with a (-2) charge.

Answer:

PCl5 <-> PCl3 + Cl2

PCl5 decomposes into PCl3 and Cl2 according to the equation above. A pure sample of Pcl5 is placed in a rigid, evacuated 1.00 L container. The initial pressure of the PCl5 is 1.00 atm. The temperature is held constant until the PCl5 reaches equilibrium with its decomposition products. The figures below show the initial and equilibrium conditions of the system.

As the reaction progresses toward equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction

A) increases until it becomes the same as the reverse reaction rate at equilibrium

B) stays constant before and after equilibrium is reached

C) decreases to become a constant nonzero rate at equilibrium

D) decreases to become zero at equilibrium

Explanation:

At equilibrium, both forward and backward reactions take place with constant speed.

The reaction will never cease.

Due to this reason chemical equilibrium is called dynamic in nature.

At equilibrium:

the rate of forward reaction = rate of backward reaction

As the reaction progresses toward equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction decreases to become a constant nonzero rate at equilibrium.

Answer is option C).

When a system is in a state of chemical equilibrium, neither the reactant concentration nor the product concentration changes over time, nor does the system exhibit any further changes in its attributes. Here the correct option is C.

The system reaches a condition of chemical equilibrium when the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction. The system is considered to be in a state of dynamic equilibrium when the concentrations of the reactants and products do not change further as a result of the equal rates of the forward and reverse processes.

Equilibrium is impacted by a number of variables, including temperature, pressure, and the system's concentration. Here at equilibrium the rate of the forward reaction decreases to become a constant nonzero rate at equilibrium.

Thus the correct option is C.

why elements with more than 20 protons always have a more neutrons than protons?​

Answers

Answer:

Elements that have atomic numbers from 20 to 83 are heavy elements, therefore the ratio is different. The ratio is 1.5:1, the reason for this difference is because of the repulsive force between protons: the stronger the repulsion force, the more neutrons are needed to stabilize the nuclei.

Second: 2 upper N upper O (g) plus upper O subscript 2 (g) right arrow 2 upper N upper O subscript 2 (g). Which best describes what Jason should do with the oxygen molecules?

Answers

Answer:

The molecules of oxygen should be placed as reactants in the equation.

Explanation:

1:      N₂ + O₂ → 2NO

2:     2NO + O₂ → 2NO₂

complete reaction:

N₂ + 2O₂ → 2NO₂

In both intermediate equations' oxygen is used as reactant because the end product is the product of the combination of nitrogen and oxygen. So in the  complete or overall reaction, oxygen should also be placed as reactant.

We can not place oxygen at the side of products neither we can cancel it because, products can only be obtained at the end of the reaction but according to the equations' oxygen is not the end product of the reaction. But the addition into the reaction (Eq. 2) to make the new product.

Also, we can not cancel it because to cancel out molecules of oxygen should be present at the both sides with same amount in the stoichiometric equation.

Hence, in a balanced chemical equation, oxygen should be written as a reactant by using the correct number of moles.

Answers

Answer: The molality of [tex]NaC_2H_3O_2[/tex] solution is 0.782 m

Explanation:

Molality is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per kilogram of solvent. The units of molarity are mol/kg. The formula used to calculate molality:

[tex]\text{Molality of solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Mass of solvent (in kg)}}[/tex] .....(1)

Answers

Answer:

The final temperature aluminium-water system is 24° C

Explanation:

Heat energy, H = mcθ

Where m is mass of substance, c is specific heat capacity, θ is temperature difference

Using the principle, Heat lost = Heat gained

Let the final temperature of the aluminium-water system be Tfinal

Heat lost by aluminium, H₁ = -m₁c₁(Tfinal - 40)

Heat gained by water, H₂ = m₂c₂(Tfinal -21)

Heat lost by aluminium, H = -[30 × 0.21 × (Tfinal - 40)]

H₁ = -6.3Tfinal + 252

Heat gained by water, H₂ = 50 × 1.0 × (Tfinal - 21)

H₂ = 5Tfinal - 21

Equating H₁ and H₂

-6.3Tfinal + 252 = 5 Tfinal - 21

5Tfinal + 6.3Ffinal = 252 + 21

11.3 Tfinal = 273

Tfinal = 273/11.3

Tfinal = 24° C

Therefore, the final temperature aluminium-water system is 24° C

What is the predicted change in the boiling point of water when 2.10 g of
barium chloride (BaCl2) is dissolved in 5.50 kg of water?

Answers

The addition of any non-volatile solutes will elevate the boiling point of the solution. The change in boiling point of water by the addition of 2.10 of barium chloride is 0.0028 ° C. Hence, option A is correct.

What is boiling point?

Boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from liquid to vapour where the two states are in equilibrium. Boiling point of a substance depends on the bond type, molecular mass and purity of it.

The change or elevation of boiling point of a solution can be determined from its molality m and elevation constant Kb and the Van't Hoff factor i as follows:

ΔT = i Kb m.

Molality of the solution is the no.of moles divided by the mass of solvent in kilogram. Given the mass of barium chloride is 2.10 g and its molar mass is 208.23 g . The no.of moles of solute is 2.10/208.23 g = 0.0100.

Molality of the solution can be calculated as follows:

Molality m = 0.0100 / 5.50 Kg

                 = 0.0018 mol/kg.

Now, the  ΔT s calculated from these values. Provided Kb of water is 0.51 ° C /mol and i = 3.

ΔT  = 0.0018 mol/kg × 0.51 × 3

       = 0.0028 ° C.

Therefore, water will boil at 100.0028 ° C. Hence, option A is correct.

What is Malleability
What is ductility
What is Sonorous

Answers

Answer:

Malleability describes the property of a metal's ability to be distorted below compression. It is a physical property of metals by which they can be hammered, shaped and rolled into a very thin sheet without rupturing. A malleable fabric could be planate by blow or rolling.

Explanation:

Ductility is the property of a solid, like a metal, to deform under a tensile stress (force). So if you pull on two ends of a metal wire or bar, and it “stretches” you have a ductile substance. Though I must caution that you don't confuse the definition of ductile to mean elastic. They are not synonyms. It is the opposite of brittle. When a ductile item breaks, it is after necking, where the diameter of the wire in question reduces as the length elongated. A brittle, or non-ductile material simple tears apart in a sharp and quick fashion with little to no visible necking taking place.

sonorous: producing sound (as when struck)

Malleability describes how mallaebale the metal is
