Answer:

mass number = 18

Explanation:

The mass number is the total amount of protons and neutrons in an atom. Therefore, if there are 8 protons and 10 neutrons, the mass number is 18 (8 + 10 = 18).

A polymer is made from 500 ethene molecule how many carbons will it contain
mars1129 [50]

Explanation:

monomer

smaller molecules that are used to prepare a polymer.

may or may not be equivalent to the repeat unit.

oligomer

a molecule consisting of several repeat units of a monomer, but not large enough to be considered a polymer

polymers

arge, usually chainlike molecules that are built from small molecules called monomers. Polymers form the basis for synthetic fibers, rubbers, and plastics and have played a leading role in the revolution that has been brought about in daily life by chemistry.

first synthetic polymers were produced as

by-products of various organic reactions and were regarded as unwanted contaminants.

first completely synthetic plastic

Bakelite, a substance that when molded to a certain shape under high pressure and temperature cannot be softened again or dissolved. Bakelite is a thermoset polymer. In contrast, cellulose nitrate is a thermoplastic polymer; that is, it can be remelted after it has been molded.

ethylene

basic raw material in the production of polyethylene and other important compounds. Over 135 million tons of ethylene were produced worldwide in 2010 for use in the polymer, petrochemical, and plastic industries. Ethylene is produced industrially in a process called cracking, in which the long hydrocarbon chains in a petroleum mixture are broken into smaller molecules.

monomer ethylene (C2H4) is

a gas at room temperature, but when polymerized, using a transition metal catalyst, it is transformed into a solid material made up of long chains of -CH2- units called polyethylene. Polyethylene is a commodity plastic used primarily for packaging (bags and films).

nylon

the silky appearance and strength of this thread and realized that nylon could be drawn into useful fibers.

The reason for this behavior of nylon is now understood. When nylon is first formed, the individual polymer chains are oriented randomly, like cooked spaghetti, and the sub- stance is highly amorphous. However, when drawn out into a thread, the chains tend to line up (the nylon becomes more crystalline), which leads to increased hydrogen bonding between adjacent chains. This increase in crystallinity, along with the resulting increase in hydrogen-bonding interactions, leads to strong fibers and thus to a highly useful mate- rial. Commercially, nylon is produced by forcing the raw material through a spinneret, a plate containing small holes, which forces the polymer chains to line up.

polyethylene

simplest and one of the best-known polymers, constructed from ethylene monomers.

CH2=CH2

Polyethylene is a member of one subset of synthetic polymers classified as plastics.

properties of polyethylene

Polyethylene is a tough, flexible plastic used for piping, bottles, electrical insulation, packaging films, garbage bags, and many other purposes.

Its properties can be varied by using substituted ethylene monomers. For example, when tetrafluoroethylene is the monomer, the polymer Teflon.

Convert the following to grams, <br> a. 0.100 moles of CO2
Svetlanka [38]
.100 mol CO2 x \frac{44.01 g}{1 mol}
using the values of the periodic you first add the masses of C (12.01g) and O (there are two so it'll be 32.00g). That value will give the mass of 1mole of CO2.


I hate to do this, but

How many moles of a gas sample are in a 5.0 L container at 205 K and 340 kPa?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

1.0 mole

Explanation:

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

Volume (V) = 5 L

Temperature (T) = 205 K

Pressure (P) = 340 KPa

Gas constant (R) = 8.31 KPa.L/Kmol

Number of mole (n) =?

Using the ideal gas equation, the number of mole of the gas in the container can be obtained as follow:

PV = nRT

340 × 5 = n × 8.31 × 205

1700 = n × 1703.55

Divide both side by 1703.55

n = 1700 / 1703.55

n = 1.0 mole

Thus, the number of mole of the gas in the container is 1.0 mole
