It’s asking what subatomic particles each could have where one would be negative and they’d have the same mass. Since one is neutral it will have an equal amount of electrons and protons, while the negative one will have more electrons since they are negatively charged. It would be possible for one atom to have 9 protons, 9 electrons, and 1 neutron while the other has 9 protons and 10 electrons. Or you could take out the neutron because electrons don’t really have mass

If 3.8 moles of zinc metal react with 6.5 moles of silver nitrate, how many moles of silver metal can be formed, and how many mo

bulgar [2K]

Answer: 6.5 moles of silver metal is formed in the given chemical reaction. The moles of excess reagent left are 0.55 moles.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles of silver formed and the moles of excess reagent left after the reaction, we need to balance the equation first and need to find the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical equation is:

$Zn+2AgNO_3\rightarrow Zn(NO_3)_2+2Ag$

By Stoichiometry:

2 moles of Silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of Zinc metal

So, 6.5 moles of silver nitrate will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 6.5=3.25moles$ of zinc metal

The required amount of zinc metal is less than the given amount of zinc metal, hence, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Therefore, silver nitrate is the limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of silver nitrate produces 2 moles of silver metal

So, 6.5 moles of silver nitrate will produce = $\frac{2}{2}\times 6.5=6.5moles$ of silver metal.

Number of moles of excess reagent left after the completion of reaction = (3.8 - 3.25)moles = 0.55 moles

Hence, 6.5 moles of silver metal is formed in the given chemical reaction. The moles of excess reagent left are 0.55 moles.

why is it much easier for group 14 elements to become stable by sharing instead of transferring electrons9

Effectus [21]

Because they are closer to the farther end of the periodic table. Since they are closer to the farther end they don't want to give away their electrons because it would be easier for them to just steal them from other atoms.

An element has an atomic mass of 69.66 amu. It has two

marin [14]

Answer: 63.26%

Explanation:

If we let the abundance of the first isotope be x, then:

$69.66=(68.9255)(x)+(70.9247)(1-x)\\69.66=68.9255x+70.9247-70.9247x\\-1.2647=-1.9992x\\x=\frac{-1.2647}{-1.9992} \approx 0.6326$

Which is equal to 63.26%

A 3.31-g sample of lead nitrate, Pb(NO3)2, molar mass = 331 g/mol, is heated in an evacuated cylinder with a volume of 2.53 L. T

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder

Explanation:

1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ descomposes in 4 moles of NO2 and 1 mole of O2. That is 1 mole descomposes in 5 moles of gas.

To find the pressure of the cylinder, we need to find moles of gas produced, and using general gas law we can determine the pressure of the gas:

Moles Pb(NO₃)₂ and moles of gas:

3.31g * (1mol / 331g) = 0.01 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂.

That means moles of gas produced is 0.05 moles.

Pressure of the gas:

Using PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

Where P is pressure (Incognite)

V is volume (2.53L)

R is gas constant (0.082atmL/molK)

T is absolute temperature (300K)

And n are moles of gas (0.05 moles)

P = 0.05mol*0.082atmL/molK*300K / 2.53L

P = 0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder
