How many protons , neutrons and electrons are in an atom of magnesium-24?

1 answer:

8 0

Here is your answer:

Theirs 12 protons, 12 electrons, and 14 neutrons!

Reason: When you look at the atomic number for any element on the table with all of the elements that's how many protons, and electrons their are in the substance (or element) you find how many neutrons by rounding the number under the atomic number which will equal 14!

Your answer is 12:12:14

Sulfur oxides Carbon monoxides Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)Nitrates are responsible for the hole in the ozone layer.

svp [43]

The best answer for the question above would be the chloroflourocarbons or the CFCs. These chloroflourocarbons or CFCs are the ones responsible for the depletion of the ozone - which leads to leaving a hole in its layer. These gases eat out the ozone layer and allows harmful UV rays of the sun to come in the Earth.

Glucose (C6H12O6) can be fermented to yield ethanol (CH3CH2OH) and carbon dioxide (CO2). C6H12O6⟶2CH3CH2OH+2CO2 The molar mass o

jekas [21]

Answer:

The % yield is 74.45 %

Explanation:

Step 1: The balanced equation

C6H12O6⟶2CH3CH2OH+2CO2

Step 2: Data given

Molar mass glucose = 180.15 g/mol

Molar mass of ethanol = 46.08 g/mol

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44.01 g/mol

Mass of glucose = 61.5 grams

Mass of ethanol = 23.4 grams

Step 3: Calculate moles of glucose

Moles glucose = Mass glucose / Molar mass of glucose

Moles glucose = 61.5 grams / 180.15 g/mol

Moles glucose = 0.341 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of ethanol

1 mole of glucose consumed, produces 2 moles of ethanol and 2 moles of CO2

0.341 moles of glucose, will produce 2*0.341 = 0.682 moles of ethanol

Step 5: Calculate mass of ethanol

Mass ethanol = moles ethanol * Molar mass ethanol

Mass ethanol = 0.682 moles * 46.08 g/mol

Mass ethanol = 31.43 grams = theoretical mass

Step 6: Calculate % yield

% yield = actual mass / theoretical mass

% yield = (23.4 grams / 31.43 grams) * 100%

% yield = 74.45 %

The % yield is 74.45 %

Sheena has a lump of sodium, a lump of potassium and a lump of lithium, but they’ve got mixed up and she doesn’t know which one

Arada [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Just saw your request regarding answering this so here it is:

All of them belong of Group 1 in periodic table and thus are highly reactive! Pattern of reactivity for Group 1 (Alkali metals) increases as you move down the group as their radius keeps increasing and thus electrons can be easily lost. Thus, to ID the lumps, Sheena should look at their reactivity and she should get the following trend:

Most reactive: Potassium (K)

Intermediate: Sodium (Na)

Least reactive: Lithium (Li)

Hope it helps!
