A conducting sphere has a net charge of 4.8  1017

Chemistry
1 answer:
vodomira [7]3 years ago
5 0
A net charge of the sphere is the overall charge of the sphere. If it says that there are excess electrons, it means that the net charge is negative. Also, the quantity of charge of sub particles are very small so that must be 10 to the power of negative 17. So, I think the net charge is -4.8×10⁻¹⁷ Coulombs.

Then, we use the electrical charge of an electron which is equal to 1.60217662×10⁻¹⁹ C/electron. Therefore,

-4.8×10⁻¹⁷ Coulombs * 1 electron/-1.60217662×10⁻¹⁹ C = 299.592

Therefore, there are approximately 300 excess electrons.

What are nanochemicals and what are there uses?
NARA [144]

Nanochemicals can be defined as chemicals generated by using nanomaterials (materials that possess of size on nanometer dimensions). The nanochemicals are used in multiple different applications including chemical warfare, bicycle making, armor design and military weapons crafting. The most commonly used and observed nanochemicals are carbon nanotubes that are used a ton in industry for applications such as stronger materials (stronger bicycles).

Smart materials are exquisitely designed materials whose property(ies) can be modified with the use of an external stimulus such as temperature, stress, pH, and so on. Some examples of smart materials include shape memory materials, piezoelectric materials, ferrofluids, self-healing materials, and such. Applications involve memory pillows, memory based solar panels (for satellites), light sensitive glasses, and so on.

Specialized materials are made specifically to perform a specified task or function. Applications involve electronic equipment (high purity silicon & germanium), machine tools (high tungsten high carbon steel), dental filling (dental amalgam), and so on.

What is the mass of 1.2 x 1023 atoms of arsenic?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

14.93 g

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 1.2 x 10²³ atoms of arsenic (As) into moles</u>, using <em>Avogadro's number</em>:

  • 1.2 x 10²³ atoms ÷ 6.023x10²³ atoms/mol = 0.199 mol As

Then we can<u> calculate the mass of 0.199 moles of arsenic</u>, using its<em> molar mass</em>:

  • 0.199 mol * 74.92 g/mol = 14.93 g

Thus, 1.2x10²³ atoms of arsenic weigh 14.93 grams.

Which formula contains two non- metals?<br><br>BaO<br>NaBr<br>KI<br>Si O2​
Yakvenalex [24]
SiO2 is the only possible choice because the other formulas contain metals. how do we know this? because the other formulas contain elements located on the left of the “staircase” on the periodic table that separates metals from non-metals.

Co(g) effuses at a rate that is ______ times that of cl2(g) under the same conditions.
il63 [147K]

Answer is: the ratio of the effusion rate is 1.59 : 1.

1) rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 1/√M(CO).  

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 1/√28.

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 0.189.  

2) rate of effusion of chlorine = 1/√M(Cl₂).  

rate of effusion of chlorine = 1/√70.9.  

rate of effusion of chlorine = 0.119.  

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide : rate of effusion of chlorine =

= 0.189 : 0.119 / ÷0.119.

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide : rate of effusion of chlorine = 1.59 : 1.
