Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, given atom has mass number as 15 and its atomic number is 7.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

                    Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                         15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 15 - 7

                                               = 8

Thus, we can conclude that the given atom contains 8 neutrons in the nucleus.

How many formula units are in 4.52 moles of H3SO3?<br> Type your answer
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The answer is 98.07848. We assume you are converting between grams H2SO4 and mole. You can view more details on each measurement unit: This compound is also known as Sulfuric Acid. The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole. 1 grams H2SO4 is equal to 0.010195916576195 mole.

<u>Quick conversion chart of moles H2SO3 to grams</u>

1 moles H2SO3 to grams = 82.07908 grams

2 moles H2SO3 to grams = 164.15816 grams

3 moles H2SO3 to grams = 246.23724 grams

4 moles H2SO3 to grams = 328.31632 grams

5 moles H2SO3 to grams = 410.3954 grams

6 moles H2SO3 to grams = 492.47448 grams

7 moles H2SO3 to grams = 574.55356 grams

8 moles H2SO3 to grams = 656.63264 grams

9 moles H2SO3 to grams = 738.71172 grams

10 moles H2SO3 to grams = 820.7908 grams

Which formula can be used to calculate the theoretical yield? (5 points)
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Multiply the number of moles in the product by the molecular weight of the product to determine the theoretical yield.

Explanation:

For example:

If you created 0.5 moles of Aluminium Oxide the molecular weight of Aluminium Oxide is 101.96g/mole, so you would get 50.98g as the theoretical yield.

So multiply,..

101.96x0.5= 50.98

This is the correct way to calculate the theoretical yield

Use the molar bond enthalpy data in the table to estimate the value of Δ∘rxn
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol

Explanation:

  • CH4(g) + 4Cl2(g) → CCl4(g) + 4HCl(g)

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4ΔH°HCl(g) + ΔH°CCl4(g) - 4ΔH°Cl2(g) - ΔH°CH4(g)

∴ ΔH°Cl2(g) = 0 KJ/mol.....pure element in its reference state

∴ ΔH°CCl4(g) = - 138.7 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°HCl(g) = - 92.3 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°CH4(g) = - 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4(- 92.3 KJ/mol) + (- 138.7 KJ/mol) - 4(0 KJ/mol) - (- 74.8 KJ/mol)

⇒  ΔH°rxn = - 369.2 KJ/mol - 138.7 KJ/mol - 0 KJ/mol + 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol
