Answer:

16 grams

Explanation:

Mass = 200g

Solute = MassX

X = percentage

X = 0.08

Solute = 200grams x 0.08 = 16 grams

Answer:

The answer to your question is 16 g

Explanation:

Data

Percent by mass = 8%

Mass of the solution = 200 g

Mass of solute = ?

Formula

Percent by mass = mass of solute / mass of solution x 100

- Solve for mass of solute

Mass of solute = Percent by mass x mass of solution / 100

- Substitution

Mass of solute = 8 x 200 / 100

- Simplification

Mass of solute = 1600 / 100

- Result

Mass of solute = 16 g

Rasek [7]

Let us calculate the structure of the electric shells of the Al atom. It has an atomic number of 13, so it has 13 electrons. The first 2 go to the first hell. The next 8 need to go to the second shell and the last 3 ones would go to the outermost shell. The outer shell, that is the most important one for chemical reactions, has thus 3 electrons. An atom always tries to have a completed outer shell (with either 2 or 8 atoms). It is easier for a cell to have a charge of +3 than a charge of -5 (smaller absolute value) and thus the Aluminum atom will try to get rid of the 3 electrons. In this process, it loses negative charge thus it will become positively charged. Hence, the correct answer is that it will prefer to lose 3 electrons and become positively charged.

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

1) Favor formation of reactant

2) Favor formation of product

3) Favor formation of product

4) Favor formation of product

5) Favor formation of product

Explanation:

The reaction is $AgBr(s)--->Ag^{+}(aq)+Br^{-}(aq)$

The reaction is endothermic

1. Adding hydrobromic acid (HBr)

It will increase the amount of bromide ion. Bromide ion is one of the product so it will favor formation of reactant.

2. Lowering the concentration of bromide (Br-) ions

As we are decreasing the the concentration of product it will favor formation of more products

3. Heating the concentrations

If we are heating the mixture, it will increase the temperature and it will favor endothermic reaction. Thus will favor formation of product.

4. Adding solid silver bromide (AgBr)

If we are adding silver bromide it means we are increasing the concentration of reactant, it will favor formation of products

5. Removing silver (Ag+) ions

Removing silver ions means we are decreasing the concentration of product thus it will favor formation of products.

In determining nuclear binding energy, what is Einstein's equation used to do?

natita [175]

Basically this is used in calculating the nuclear binding energy by converting the mass defect (calculated first) to energy and if we recall, Einstein's equation E=mc2 is the perfection equation to use because E=mc2 in which E represents units of energy, m represents units of mass, and c 2 is the speed of light squared.
