Answer : The number of protons in an element are 8.

Explanation :

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons.

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons

As we are given :

Atomic number of an element = 8

Mass number of an element = 18

Now we have to determine the number of protons for this element.

As, Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

So,

Atomic number = Number of protons = 8

Hence, the number of protons in an element are 8.

A = Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

B = Vacuole

C = Mitochondria (Plural)

D = Nucleolus

E = Cell Wall

Explanation:

This is obviously a plant cell. Animal cells do not have cell walls(E), and most animal cells will not have a vacuole(B). Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum: This produces protiens (contains ribosomes) but when looked through a microscope, will appear to be smooth. The vacuole(B) is like a storage for the plant cell, and it helps support the plant cell. This is the reason why plants “droop” when you don’t water them for a long time. Mitochondia (Plural) processes nutrients for the cell. The nucleolus(D) covers the nucleus. It’s main function is to process RNA and combine it with proteins. The cell wall(E) helps support and protect the cell.

0.415 g of an unknown triprotic acid are used to make a 100.00 mL solution. Then 25.00 mL of this solution is transferred to an
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial burette reading = 1.81 mL

final burette reading = 39.7 mL

volume of NaOH used = 39.7 - 1.81 = 37.89 mL .  

37.89 mL of .1029 M NaOH is used to neutralise triprotic acid

No of moles contained by 37.89 mL of .1029 M NaOH

= .03789 x .1029 moles

= 3.89 x 10⁻³ moles

Since acid is triprotic ,  its equivalent weight = molecular weight / 3

No of moles of triprotic acid = 3.89 x 10⁻³ / 3

= 1.30   x 10⁻³ moles .

Water is denser than oil. When frozen, the oil sinks to the bottom. Why?
sammy [17]

Answer: When water freezes it gets larger and becomes a solid but it still weighs the same as when it was a liquid form. When it becomes larger it takes up space but makes it less dense. Ok so getting to the point- oil unlike water becomes more dense when frozen so this is why oil sinks in water. Sorry if this was confusing but I hope it helped have a great day and god bless you :3

How many molecules of propane were in the erlenmeyer flask? Avogadro's number is 6. 022 × 10^23 molecules/mol
Ede4ka [16]

3.74×10^{21}

3.74 ×10^{21} molecules of propane were in the erlenmeyer flask.

number of moles of propane can be calculated as moles of propane.

mass of propane =  0.274 g

molar mass of propane = 44.1

So this gives us the value of 6.21×10^{-3} moles of propane

No one mole of propane As a 6.0-2 × 10^{23}

so, 6.21 ×10^{-3} × 6. 022 × 10^23

= 3.74 ×10^{21}

Therefore, molecules of propane were in the erlenmeyer flask is found to be 3.74 ×10^{21}

<h3>What is erlenmeyer flask?</h3>
  • A laboratory flask with a flat bottom, a conical body, and a cylindrical neck is known as an Erlenmeyer flask, sometimes known as a conical flask or a titration flask.
  • It bears the name Emil Erlenmeyer after the German chemist.

<h3>What purpose does an Erlenmeyer flask serve?</h3>
  • Liquids are contained in Erlenmeyer flasks, which are also used for mixing, heating, chilling, incubating, filtering, storing, and other liquid-handling procedures.
  • For titrations and boiling liquids, their sloped sides and small necks make it possible to whirl the contents without worrying about spills.
