Atomic Number definition: The number of protons within the nucleus of x atom.

Atomic Mass definition: The number of protons and/+ neutrons within the nucleus of x atom. 

The given information states that the element has 8 protons and 8 neutrons in its nuclei with 8 electrons revolving around it. If the atomic number is 'the number of protons' and we have 8 given protons, our answer would be 8.  If the atomic mass is protons + neutrons and we have 8 protons and neutrons, our answer for atomic mass would inevitably be 16. 

Therefore

Atomic number: 8

Atomic mass: 16

If 125.0g of nitrogen is reacted with 125.0g of hydrogen, what is the theoretical yield of the reaction? What is the excess reac
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Hydrogen is the excess reactant

Nitrogen is the limiting reactant

151.6g is theoretical yield

Explanation:

The reaction of N₂ with H₂ to produce NH₃ is:

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

To find theoretical yield we need to determine limiting reactant with the moles of each gas as follows:

Nitrogen -Molar mass: 28g/mol-

125.0g * (1mol / 28g) = 4.46 moles

Hydrogen -Molar mass: 2g/mol-

125.0g * (1mol / 2g) = 62.5 moles of hydrogen

For a complete reaction of 4.46 moles of N2 there are needed:

4.46 moles N2 * (3moles H2 / 1mol N2) = 13.38 moles of hydrogen

As there are 62.5 moles of hydrogen:

<h3>Hydrogen is the excess reactant</h3><h3>Nitrogen is the limiting reactant</h3><h3 />

With nitrogen, the limiting reactant, we determine theoretical moles (Assuming 100% of the reaction occurs) and theoretical yield (In mass):

4.46 moles N2 * (2moles NH3 / 1mol N2) = 8.92 moles of ammonia

As molar mass of ammonia is 17g/mol:

8.92 moles of ammonia * (17g/mol) =

<h3>151.6g is theoretical yield</h3>

What kinda of water movement helps the fishing industry
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Upwelling is the natural process which brings cold, nutrient-rich water to the surface. A huge upwelling regularly occurs off the coast of Peru, which enjoys a large fishing industry as a result. Upwelling is a process in which currents bring deep, cold water to the surface of the ocean.

2-butanone is converted into 3-methyl-3-hexanol using a grignard reagent prepared from 1-bromopropane and magnesium metal in thf
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

At the end of the reaction you will have a solution of the alcohol in THF.

The microdistillation procedure will vary, depending on the specific apparatus you are using, but here is a typical procedure.

  • Transfer the solution to a conical vial.
  • Add a boiling stone.
  • Attach a Hickman head (shown below) and condenser.
  • Place the assembly in in the appropriate hole of an aluminium block on top of a hotplate stirrer.
  • Begin stirring and heating at a low level so the THF (bp 63 °C) can distill slowly.
  • Use a Pasteur pipet to withdraw the THF as needed.
  • When all the THF has been removed, raise the temperature of the Al block and distill the alcohol (bp 143 °C).
