You will want to find how many grams are in a whole mole so you know which element it is. To do this, find out how much of a mole you have.

4.95 x 10^23 atoms / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms (one whole mole of any element) = .8219860511 or ~82% of 1 mole

Now we know that, find what to multiply 20 g by to get the rest of the mole.

1 mole / .8219860511 mole = 1.216565657

20 g x 1.216565657 = ~24.33 g / mol

Now that you have grams per mole, you can look at the periodic table and the molar masses to see which this number is closely aligned.

Your answer is Magnesium (Mg), which has a molar mass of 24.305 g

Assume reaction N (g )space plus O (g )rightwards arrow N O (g )occurs in high layers of the atmosphere. What is the H subscript
8090 [49]

Answer:

Kindly check the explanation section.

Explanation:

From the description given in the question above, that is '' H subscript f to the power of degree of the reaction" we have that the description matches what is known as the heat of formation of the reaction, ∆fH° where the 'f' is a subscript.

In order to determine the heat of formation of any of the species in the reaction, the heat of formation of the other species must be known and the value for the heat of reaction, ∆H(rxn) must also be known. Thus, heat of formation can be calculated by using the formula below;

∆H(rxn) = ∆fH°( products) - ∆fH°(reactants).

That is the heat of formation of products minus the heat of formation of the reaction g specie(s).

Say heat of formation for the species is known as N(g) = 472.435kj/mol, O(g) = 0kj/mol and NO = unknown, ∆H°(rxn) = −382.185 kj/mol.

−382.185 = x - 472.435kj/mol = 90.25 kJ/mol

A Metal mass of 71.68g occupies a volume of 8cm^3. Calculate the density
Damm [24]
Density = mass
                --------------
                 volume
 
             =        71.68
                    -------------
                          8
 
              =         8.96 g/cm3.

Hope this helps!
