The expected radius of a nucleus having 82 protons and 125 neutrons would be 5.2 fm.

<h3>What is a nucleus in the atom?</h3>

The nuclei are incredibly tiny and dense. They are 10 thousand times smaller than an atom and have more than 99.9% of their mass. Protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no electrical charge, make up the nucleus. Alternately, protons and neutrons make up an atom's nucleus. While neutrons have no charge but weigh the same as protons, protons have a positive charge that is equivalent to the orbiting electrons. Based on the 1909 Geiger-Marsden gold foil experiment, Ernest Rutherford identified the atomic nucleus in 1911, which is the compact, dense region made up of protons and neutrons at the heart of an atom.

Why is it important to note the temperature when determining the density of a substance?

Andru [333]

It is important to take note of th temperature in determining the density of a substance because this will set as a basis and will likely be a variable in the experiment because this will also contribute on the effects of the experiment and a basis of how the experiment has turned to be that way.

Complete combustion of 3.20g of a hydrocarbon produced 9.69g of CO2 and 4.96g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the hydr

vlabodo [156]

Let empirical formula for hydrocarbon is CxHy

it will undergo combustion as

CxHy + (x + y/4) O2 ---> xCO2 + (y/2 )H2O

Given that mass of CO2 produced = 9.69 g

So moles of CO2 produced = 9.69 / 44 = 0.22 moles

So moles of carbon present = 0.22 moles

mass of H2O produced = 4.96 g

Moles of H2O produced = mass / molar mass = 4.96 / 18 = 0.28 moles

So moles of H present = 2 X 0.28 = 0.56 moles

Let us divided the moles of each with lowest value of moles

Moles of Carbon = 0.22 / 0.22 = 1 moles

moles of H = 0.56 / 0.22 = 2.55

Multiplying with two to get whole number

the ratio of carbon and hydrogen will be : C:H = 2:5

empirical formula : C2H5

Determine the mass of 2.4 x 10^24 atoms of gold?

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Mass = 785.9 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Atoms of gold = 2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms

Mass of gold = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the number of atoms into moles.

2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol/ 6.02 × 10²³ atoms

number of moles = 3.99 mol

Now we will determine the mass of gold.

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.99 mol × 196.97 g/mol

Mass = 785.9 g

The graph shows the solubility of several different salts in water, across a range of temperatures. According to the

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Sodium chloride

See the graph attached

Explanation:

The attached graph with a green and a red arrow facilitates the understanding of this explanation.

To read the solubility on the graph, you can start with the temperature, on the x-axis.

The red vertical arrow shows how, departing from the 40ºC temperature on the x-axis, you intersect the solutibility curve of sodium chloride at a height (y-axis) corresponding to 60 g/100cm³ of water (follow the green horizontal arrow).

Hence, sodium chloride is the salt that can dissolve at a concentration of about 60g/100cm³ of water at 40ºC.
