The atomic mass of a carbon isotope that has 6 protons and 7 neutrons is<u> </u><u>13</u>
Explanation:
Remember that whilst the atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom, the mass number represents the summation of protons and neutrons particles in the atomic nuclei. Therefore, in this case, the carbon will have a mass number of;
6 + 7 = 13
Isotopes of an element usually have the same atomic number but different mass numbers -because they have slightly different numbers of neutrons. An example is isotopes of Carbon; C-14 and C-12
Boyle's law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its temperature if<u> the temperature and the number of particles are constant.</u>
<h3>Further Explanation</h3><h3>Boyles’s law </h3>
- This gas law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant absolute temperature.
- Therefore, when the volume of an ideal gas is increased at constant temperature then the pressure of the gas will also increase.
- Mathematically; Volume α 1/Pressure
Vα1/P
- Therefore, constant k, is = PV
<h3>Other gas Laws</h3><h3>Gay-Lussac’s law </h3>
- It states that at constant volume, the pressure of an ideal gas I directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
- Thus, an increase in pressure of an ideal gas at constant volume will result to an increase in the absolute temperature.
<h3>Charles’s law</h3>
- It states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to absolute temperature at constant pressure.
- Therefore, an increase in volume of an ideal gas causes a corresponding increase in its absolute temperature and vice versa while the pressure is held constant.
<h3>Dalton’s law </h3>
- It is also known as the Dalton’s law of partial pressure. It states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is always equivalent to the total sum of the partial pressures of individual component gases.
- Partial pressure refers to the pressure of an individual gas if it occupies the same volume as the mixture of gases.

Answer:
ΔH = -20kJ
Explanation:
The enthalpy of formation of a compound is defined as the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements. For H₂S(g) the reaction that describes this process is:
H₂(g) + S(g) → H₂S(g)
Using Hess's law, it is possible to sum the enthalpies of several reactions to obtain the change in enthalpy of a particular reaction thus:
<em>(1) </em>H₂S(g) + ³/₂O₂(g) → SO₂(g) + H₂O(g) ΔH = -519 kJ
<em>(2) </em>H₂(g) + ¹/₂O₂(g) → H₂O(g) ΔH = -242 kJ
<em>(3) </em>S(g) + O₂(g) → SO₂(g) ΔH = -297 kJ
The sum of -(1) + (2) + (3) gives:
<em>-(1) </em>SO₂(g) + H₂O(g) → H₂S(g) + ³/₂O₂(g) ΔH = +519 kJ
<em>(2) </em>H₂(g) + ¹/₂O₂(g) → H₂O(g) ΔH = -242 kJ
<em>(3) </em>S(g) + O₂(g) → SO₂(g) ΔH = -297 kJ
<em>-(1) + (2) + (3): </em><em>H₂(g) + S(g) → H₂S(g) </em>
<em>ΔH =</em> +519kJ - 242kJ - 297kJ = <em>-20 kJ</em>
