The element in question is Sodium

An atomic mass unit is defined as 1/12 th of the mass of carbon-12 atom.

The mass of an atom is mainly due to its protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

Weight of a proton is 1.6 x 10^-27 kg

Weight of a neutron is 1.6 x 10^-27kg

However weight of an electron is 9 x 10^-31kg and hence is negligible in calculation of amu

It is given that weight is 23 AMU and number of protons is 11

The protons in a nucleus also act as atomic number of the periodic table

Proton number 11 is the atomic number of Sodium

Hence the element is Sodium

When 1 mol of sodium nitrate, is dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, 40 kJ of heat energy is absorbed. What is the drop in
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

 1.0  ° C

Explanation:

The molar mass for Sodium Nitrate NaNO₃ = (23+14+(16×3)) = 85

Number of moles of NaNO₃  = mass of NaNO₃ /molar mass of NaNO₃

⇒ 17/85 = 1.38 moles

Since 1 mole of NaNO₃  dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, 40 kJ of heat energy is absorbed.

when 1.38 mole of NaNO₃  dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, x kJ of heat energy is absorbed..

Then; x kJ of 1.38 mole of NaNo₃ = 1.38 × 40 kJ  =55.2 kJ of heat absorbed.

Using the relation : Q = mcΔT  to determine the temperature drop ; we get:

55.2 = 17 × 4 (ΔT)

55.2  = 68 ΔT

ΔT= 0.8 ° C

ΔT ≅  1.0  ° C

Therefore, the drop in temperature when 17.0g of sodium nitrate is dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water is   1.0  ° C

Make a prediction about the relationship between electrons and molecular shapes ​
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

★ Molecular geometry is described by VSEPR theory, which basically states that electron pairs around a central atom will repel each other, and get as far apart as possible, in three dimensions.

Explanation:

Hope you have a great day :)
