<u>Answer:</u> It is equal to the sum of number of neutrons and protons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

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.

2. What mass of sodium chloride is produced when chlorine gas reacts with 2.29 grams of sodium iodide? The unbalanced equation i
Damm [24]

Answer:

0.88g

Explanation:

The reaction equation:

         2NaI  + Cl₂   →    2NaCl  + I₂

Given parameters:

Mass of Sodium iodide = 2.29g

Unknown:

Mass of NaCl = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we work from the known to the unknown.

First find the number of NaI from the mass given;

   Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}  

          Molar mass of NaI  = 23 + 126.9  = 149.9g/mol

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

     Number of moles  = \frac{2.29}{149.9}   = 0.015mol

So;

 From the balanced reaction equation;

            2 moles of NaI produced 2 moles of NaCl

          0.015mole of NaI will produce 0.015mole of NaCl

Therefore;

      Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

      Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5  = 58.5g/mol

Now;

      Mass of NaCl  = 0.015 x 58.5  = 0.88g

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

8.6g/cm³ (BRASS)

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of object = 86g

Volume of object = 10cm³

The density of an object is calculated using the formula :

Density(g/cm³) = mass(g) / volume(cm³)

Inputting our values :

Density = 86g / 10cm³

Density = 8.6g/cm³

According to the table provided, the object which corresponds to having a density of 8.6g/cm³ is BRASS

NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H2O. What mass of water forms when 2.75 × 10–4 mol NaOH reacts completely? given the equation, 2.75 × 10–4 m
Hoochie [10]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H2O

We are given the amount of sodium hydroxide to be used up in the reaction. This will be the starting point for the calculation. 

2.75 x 10^-4 mol NaOH ( 1 mol H2O / 1 mol NaOH ) ( 18.02 g H2O / 1 mol H2O ) = 4.96 x 10^-3 g H2O</span>
