Answer: It is equal to the sum of number of neutrons and protons.

Explanation:

Atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of number of neutrons and number of protons that are present in an atom. It is represented as 'A'.

A = Atomic mass = Number of neutrons + Number of protons

For an element X having 5 protons and 6 neutrons, the atomic mass will be:

Atomic mass = 5 + 6

Hence, this is equal to the sum of number of neutrons and protons.

The chemical formula for baking soda is NaHCO. Does baking soda contain metallic or non-metallic elements? Which one is which?

Fed [463]

Answer:

Both metals and non metals.

Explanation:

The correct formula of baking soda is NaHCO₃,

An element is considered to be metal if it is able to give electron easily due to very low ionization energy.

A non metal is ready to accept electron easily due to high electron affinity.

In sodium bicarbonate :

Na: Sodium : metal

H : Hydrogen: non metal (although placed with first group, alkali metals, in the periodic table as it readily loses electron like metals)

C: Carbon: Non metal

O : Oxygen : Non metal.

So the compound contains both metals and non metals.

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{ B. Increase the temperature and decrease the pressure.}}$

Explanation:

Let's say the reaction is

R ⇌ 2P; endothermic

I like to consider heat as if it were a reactant or a product in a chemical equilibrium.

Another way to write the equilibrium would be

heat + R ⇌ 2P

According to Le Châtelier's Principle, when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will respond in a way that tends to relieve the stress.

Let's consider each of the stresses in turn.

(i) Changing the temperature

If you want to increase the amount of product, you increase the temperature. The system will try to get rid of the added heat by shifting to the right, thus forming more product.

(ii) Changing the pressure

If R and P are liquids or solids or in aqueous solution, changing the pressure will have no effect. Something must be in the gas phase for a change in pressure to affect the position of equilibrium.

If P is a gas, the equilibrium is

heat + R ⇌ 2P(g)

Then, decreasing the pressure will produce more P. If you reduce the pressure, the system will respond by shifting to the right (the side with more gas molecules) to produce more P and bring the pressure back up

If 0.138g of cyclohexene (c6h10) was obtained from 0.240g of cyclohexanol (c6h120), what is the percentage yield of cyclohexene?

tino4ka555 [31]

Given in the question- 1 mole of cyclohexanol = > 1 mole of cyclohexene Molar mass 100.16 g/mol moles of cyclohexanol = .240 / 100.16= 0.002396 moles Molar mass 82.143 g/mol moles of cyclohexene formed @100 % yield = 0.002396 Molar mass 82.143 g/mol mass of cyclohexene @ 100 % = .002396 x 82.143 = 0.197g bur we have .138g so % yield = .138 / .197 = 70.0 % Ans- 70 percentage yield of cyclohexene.
