If isotopes are chemically alike but physically different propose which subatomic particles are

1 answer:

7 0

All isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons. Number of neutrons in different atoms of the same element is free to vary. Since, different elements react differently, different elements have different numbers of protons. Atoms with the same number of protons and vary neutrons behave chemically similar. The number of electrons in a neutral atom depends on the number of protons. All chemical reactions involve transfer or sharing of electrons it stands to reason, neutrons are NOT responsible for chemical reactivity. It's arguable whether protons or electrons dictate chemical reactivity certainly the SUBATOMIC nuclear particle that dictates reactivity is the PROTON.

If 294 grams of FeS2 is allowed ti react with 176 grams of O2 according to the following equation how many grams of Fe2O3 are pr

podryga [215]

You must balance your equation correctly.
Here is your answer:

294gFeS2 x 1molFeS2/119.99 x 11mols O2/4mols FeS2--> 6.738mol O2

176gO2 x 1mol O2/32gO2 x 4mols FeS2/11mol FeS2--> 2mols FeS2
Now choose the molecule with the lowest amount (Limiting Reagent)

2molsFeS2 x 2molsFe2O3/4molsFeS2 x 159.7g
159.7g Fe2O3 grams produced.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

$V_1=23.3~mL$

Explanation:

In this case, we have a dilution problem. We have to remember that in the dilution procedure we go from a solution with higher concentration to a solution with lesser concentration. Therefore we have to start with the dilution equation:

$C_1*V_1=C_2*V_2$

Now we can identify the variables:

$C_1=~1.475_M$

$V_1=~?$

$C_2=~0.1374_M$

$V_2=~250.0~mL$

If we plug all the values into the equation:

$1.475_M*V_1=0.1374_M*250.0~mL$

And we solve for $V_1$ :

$V_1=\frac{0.1374_M*250.0~mL}{1.475_M}$

$V_1=23.3~mL$

I hope it helps!

A weak bond called a ______ bond results from an attraction between a slightly positive region in a molecule and a slightly nega

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: The weak bond having slightly positive region and a slightly negative region is polar covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms. For Example: HCl, $CH_4$ etc..

They are of two types:

Polar covalent bond: This bond is formed when difference in electronegativity between the atoms is present. When atoms of different elements combine, it results in the formation of polar covalent bond.

In this bond, a dipole is created. More electropnegative atom will have a slight negative charge and less electronegative atom will have a slight positive charge. For Example: $CO_2,NO_2$ etc..

Non-polar covalent bond: This bond is formed when there is no difference in electronegativity between the atoms. When atoms of the same element combine, it results in the formation of non-polar covalent bond. For Example: $N_2,O_2$ etc..
