Answer:

The first thing you will need to do is find some information about your element. Go to the Periodic Table of Elements and click on your element. If it makes things easier, you can select your element from an alphabetical listing.

Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

For krypton:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 84 - 36 = 48

hope this helps, have a good day :-)

2) Show the calculation of Kc for the following reaction if an initial reaction mixture of 0.800 mole of CO and 2.40 mole of H2

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Kc = 3.90

Explanation:

CO reacts with $H_2$ to form $CH_4$ and $H_2O$ . balanced reaction is:

$CO(g) + 3H_2 (g) \leftrightharpoons CH_4(g) + H_2O(g)$

No. of moles of CO = 0.800 mol

No. of moles of $H_2$ = 2.40 mol

Volume = 8.00 L

Concentration = $\frac{Moles}{Volume\ in\ L}$

Concentration of CO = $\frac{0.800}{8.00} = 0.100\ mol/L$

Concentration of $H_2$ = $\frac{2.40}{8.00} = 0.300\ mol/L$

$CO(g) + 3H_2 (g) \leftrightharpoons CH_4(g) + H_2O(g)$

Initial 0.100 0.300 0 0

equi. 0.100 -x 0.300 - 3x x x

It is given that,

at equilibrium $H_2O (x)$ = 0.309/8.00 = 0.0386 M

So, at equilibrium CO = 0.100 - 0.0386 = 0.0614 M

At equilibrium $H_2$ = 0.300 - 0.0386 × 3 = 0.184 M

At equilibrium $CH_4$ = 0.0386 M

$Kc=\frac{[H_2O][CH_4]}{[CO][H_2]^3}$

$Kc=\frac{0.0386 \times 0.0386}{(0.184)^3 \times 0.0614} =3.90$

How many hydrogen atoms Is needed for C5H8 to become saturated

tatiyna

Answer:

4 hydrogen atoms are needed to C5H8 to saturate it

Explanation: because C5H8 is an alkyne that contains a triple bond or alkene with 2 double bonds.

2 hydrogen atoms are needed to saturate one double bond and 4 hydrogen atoms are needed to fully Saturate a triple bond or two double bonds.
