Choose the correct answer. The difference between the mass number of an isotope and its atomic number is (a) directly related to

kicyunya [14]

Answer : The correct answer is, (c) the number of neutrons

Explanation :

Isotope : It is defined as the element that have the same number of protons but have the different number of neutrons of each of the atom.

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons.

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number

For example : For Carbon - 13 isotope.

Mass number = 13

Atomic number = 6

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number

Number of neutrons = 13 - 6 = 7

Hence, the difference between the mass number of an isotope and its atomic number is the number of neutrons.

Please help with this chemistry question!

marusya05 [52]

Hey there!

Compounds with ionic bonds have higher melting points because of the forces needed to break through the strong forces of attraction holding it together.

Compounds with covalent bonds have lower melting points because less energy is needed to break the weaker forces of attraction.

So, your answer is C. Compound 1 is ionic, and compound 2 is molecular.

Hope this helps!

one method for generating chlorine gas is by reacting potassium permanganate and hydrochloric acid. how many liters of Cl2 at 40

Ronch [10]

Answer: The volume of chlorine gas produced in the reaction is 2.06 L.

Explanation:

For potassium permanganate:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of potassium permanganate = 6.23 g

Molar mass of potassium permanganate = 158.034 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of potassium permanganate}=\frac{6.23g}{158.034g/mol}=0.039mol$

For hydrochloric acid:

To calculate the moles of hydrochloric acid, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of HCl = 6.00 M

Volume of HCl = 45.0 mL = 0.045 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$6.00mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of HCl}}{0.045L}\\\\\text{Moles of HCl}=0.27mol$

For the reaction of potassium permanganate and hydrochloric acid, the equation follows:

$2KMnO_4+16HCl\rightarrow 2MnCl_2+5Cl_2+2KCl+8H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

16 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 2 moles of potassium permanganate.

So, 0.27 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = $\frac{2}{16}\times 0.27=0.033moles$ of potassium permanganate.

As, given amount of potassium permanganate is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrochloric acid is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

16 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 5 moles of chlorine gas.

So, 0.27 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = $\frac{5}{16}\times 0.27=0.0843moles$ of chlorine gas.

To calculate the volume of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 1.05 atm

V = Volume of gas = ? L

n = Number of moles = 0.0843 mol

R = Gas constant = $0.0820\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the gas = $40^oC=[40+273]K=313K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.05atm\times V=0.0843\times 0.0820\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 313K\\\\V=2.06L$

Hence, the volume of chlorine gas produced in the reaction is 2.06 L.
