How do you find a neutron number?

1 answer:

6 0

The atomic mass of an element is the sum of the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Because electron mass is virtualy none it contributes to very little of an element's mass.

Thus the atomic mass is the sum of the number of electrons and protons.

Therefore the number of neutrons can be found by subtracting the number of protons from the atomic mass

How many grams of hydrochloric acid will react completely with a block of gold is 3.2 cm by 3.8 cm by 2.8 cm, if the density of

JulijaS [17]

Answer:
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Explanation:
1- we will get the mass of the reacting gold:
volume of gold = length * width * height
volume of gold = 3.2 * 3.8 * 2.8 = 34.048 cm^3 = 34.048 ml<span>
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume
mass of gold = </span>19.3 * 34.048 = 657.1264 grams

2- we will get the number of moles of the reacting gold:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = 657.1264 / 196.96657
number of moles = 3.3362 moles

3- we will get the number of moles of the HCl:
First, we will balanced the given equation. The balanced equation will be as follows:
Au + 2HCl ......> AuCl2 + H2
This means that one mole of Au reacts with 2 moles of HCl.
Therefore 3.3362 moles will react with 2*3.3362 = 6.6724 moles of HCL

4- we will get the mass of the HCl:
From the periodic table:
molar mass of H = 1 gram
molar mass of Cl = 35.5 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5 grams/mole
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore:
mass = number of moles * molar mass
mass of HCl = 6.6724 * 36.5
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Hope this helps :)

PLEASE SOMEONE! The density of the acetic acid solution is 1.05 g/mL. Calculate the %(m/m) of the acetic acid solution (convert

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The Percentage concentration of acetic acid = 1.39 %

Explanation:

Density of acetic acid solution = 1.05 g/mL

Volume of acetic acid solution = 0.1 L = 100 mL

From the formula, Density = mass / volume; mass = density × volume

Mass of acetic acid solution = 1.05 g/mL × 100 mL = 105 g

Molar concentration of acetic acid solution = 0.243 mol/L

Molar mass of acetic acid, CH₃COOH = (12 × 2 + 1 ×4 + 16 ×2) = 60 g/mol

From the formula, mass concentration = molar concentration × molar mass

Mass concentration of acetic acid, CH₃COOH = 0.243 mol/L × 60 g/mol = 14.58 g/L

In one liter of acetic acid solution, there are 14.58 g of acetic acid. Therefore, in 0.1 L, there will be 14.58 × 0.1 = 1.458 g of acetic acid.

Percentage concentration of acetic acid = mass of acetic acid / mass of acetic acid solution × 100%

Percentage concentration of acetic acid = (1.458 / 105) × 100% = 1.39 %

The Percentage concentration of acetic acid = 1.39 %

Archy [21]

The concept used here is the Le Chatelier's principle. When a disturbance is introduced to the system, it favors the direction of reaction that minimizes the disturbance to regain equilibrium.

In endothermic reactions, the forward reaction is favored when the temperature is low. Otherwise, the reverse reaction is favored. When you add the amounts of substances on the reactant side, more products would formed favoring the forward reaction. If you increase concentration on the product side, you form more reactants so it would favor the reverse reaction. Lastly, since 10 moles of gases are needed in the reactant side, it would be favored during high pressure reaction.
