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.

Which of the following molecules experience dipole-dipole forces as its strongest IMF? A) H2 B) SO2 C) NH3 D) CF4 E) BCl3
Xelga [282]

Answer: NH_3

Explanation:

a) H_2: This  is a non polar covalent compound which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

b) SO_2: This  is a covalent compound which is polar due to the presence of lone pair of electrons and are held by dipole-dipole forces of attraction.

c) NH_3: These are joined by a special type of dipole dipole attraction called as hydrogen bond. It forms between electronegative nitrogen atom and hydrogen atom and is the strongest interaction.

d) CF_4: This  is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

e)  BCl_3: This  is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vander waal forces of attraction.

What is the formula for pH?
netineya [11]

Answer:

To calculate the pH of an aqueous solution you need to know the concentration of the hydronium ion in moles per liter (molarity). The pH is then calculated using the expression: pH = - log [H3O+].

Example: Find the pH of a 0.0025 M HCl solution.

You placed 6.35 g of a mixture containing unknown amounts of BaO(s) and MgO(s) in a 3.50-L flask containing CO₂(g) at 30.0°C and
adelina 88 [10]

Mass of BaO in  initial mixture = 3.50g

Explanation:

Let mass of BaO in mixture be x g

mass of MgO in mixture be (6.35 - x) g

Initially CO_2

Volume = 3.50 L

Temp = 303 K

Pressure = 750 torr = 750 / 760 atm

Applying ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

n = PV / RT

(n)_CO_2 = ((750/760)* 3.50) / 0.0821 * 303

(n)_CO_2 = 0.139 mole

Finally; mole of CO_2

n= PV /RT

((245/760) *3.5) / 303* 0.0821

(n)_CO_2 = 0.045 mole

Mole of CO_2 reacted = 0.139 - 0.045

=0.044 mole

BaO + CO_2  BaCO_3

Mgo + CO_2  MgCO_3

moles of CO_2 reacted = ( moles of BaO + moles of MgO)

moles of BaO in mixture = x / 153 mole

moles of MgO in mixture = 6.35 - x mole / 40

Equating,

x/ 153 +6.35/40 = 0.094

= x/153 + 6.35 / 40 - x/40 =0.094

= x (1/40 - 1153) = (6.35/40 - 0.094)

= x * 10.018464

= 0.06475

mass of BaO in mixture = 3.50g
