Answer:

9.1747x10⁻²⁵g

Explanation:

The mass defect is the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the mass of its particles. The nucleus is formed by protons and neutrons. The atomic number of Cobalt is 27, which means that it has 27 protons in its nucleus. The number of neutrons is the mass (60) less than the number of protons, so it is 33.

Then:

Mass of 27 protons = 27 x 1.00728 = 27.19656 amu

Mass of 33 neutrons = 33 x 1.00867 = 33.28611 amu

Total mass = 60.48267 amu

Mass defect = 60.48267 - 59.9338

Mass defect = 0.54887 amu

1 amu = 1.66054x10⁻²⁴ g, so 0.54887 amu = 9.1747x10⁻²⁵g

How much ch2o is needed to prepare 445 ml of a 2.65 m solution of ch2o?
worty [1.4K]

Answer: 35.4 grams

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per Liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

Molality = 2.65

n= moles of solute =?

 V_s = volume of solution in ml = 445 ml

Putting in the values we get:

2.65=\frac{n\times 1000}{445ml}

n=1.18

Mass of solute in g=moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=1.18mol\times 30.02g/mol=35.4g

Thus 35.4 grams of CH_2O is needed to prepare 445 ml of a 2.65 m solution of CH_2O.

An atom of which of these elements most likely forms an anion? A. AI B. Br C. Ca D. Mg
Papessa [141]
The answer is B. A good way determine this is how far right the element is on the periodic table. The further right the element is, the more electronegative it is meaning it is more willing to accept an electron. This can be explained using the valence electrons and how many need to be added or removed to complete the octet. The further right you are, the easier it is for the element to just gain a few electrons instead of loose a bunch. Noble gases are the exception to this since they don't normally react though.
