How many neutrons are found in one atom of 16n? express your answer numerically?

1 answer:

4 0

The number 16 next to the elemental symbol of Nitrogen which is N indicates the mass number of the element. Now the atomic number of N is 7, this is also equal to the number of protons or electrons in the nucleus. So the balance is 16 – 7 = 9 which is being occupied by the neutrons. Therefore the number of neutrons is:

9

During a spectrophotometric analysis of an unknown, you measure your solution's absorbance, and the value is higher than the hig

Reil [10]

Answer:

A) Dilute the unknown so that it will have an absorbance within the standard curve. Once the diluted unknown concentration is determined, the full strength concentration can be calculated if the dilution process is recorded. Beer's law only applies to dilute solutions, so diluting the unknown is better than making new standards.

Explanation:

Beer's law states that absorbance is proportional to the concentrations of the absorbing species. This is verified in the case of diluted solutions (0≤0.01 M) of most substances. As a solution gets more concentrated, solute molecules interact between themselves because of their proximity. When a molecule interacts with another, the change in their electric properties (including absorbance) is probable. That's why the plot of absorbance versus concentration stops being a straight line, and Beer's law is no longer valid.

Therefore, if the absorbance value is higher than the highest standard, dilutions should be made. Once this concentration is determined, the full strength concentration can be calculated with the inverse of the dilution.

(a) a 0.2 m potassium hydroxide solution is titrated with a 0.1 m nitric acid solution. (i) balanced equation: (ii)what would be

Stells [14]

$\text{KOH} (aq) + \text{HNO}_3 (aq) \to \text{KNO}_3 (aq) + \text{H}_2\text{O} (l)$

The solution shall contain only $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ (and water) at the equivalence point. Both potassium hydroxide and nitric acid exist as strong electrolytes. As a result, $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ , the salt derived from a reaction between the two species would undergo hydrolysis of a negligible extent. This neutralization reaction therefore be neutral at the equilibrium point.

The question states that the solution is "titrated with a ... nitric acid solution" indicating that $\text{HNO}_3$ is added to the initially-basic solution. PH value of the solution would keep decreasing as the volume of the acid added increases. The final solution would be acidic as it contains not only water and $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ , but some $\text{HNO}_3$ as well. Bromothymol blue would therefore demonstrates a yellow color, the color it present in an acidic solution, at the end of the titration.
