The Atomic Number and Atomic Mass of ²⁸Si₁₄ are 14 and 28 respectively.

Atomic Number:
                         Atomic Number of Element is the Number of Protons contained by the Element. So, there are 14 Protons in ²⁸Si₁₄.

Atomic Mass:
                     Atomic Mass of Element is the total number of Protons and Neutrons present in the Nucleus of that element.
So,
                    Atomic Mass  =  # of Protons + # of Neutrons

As the Atomic mass of ²⁸Si₁₄ is 28 and it has 14 protons, So # of Neutrons are calculated as,

                     # of Neutrons  =  Atomic Mass - # of Protons

                     # of Neutrons  =  28 - 14

                     # of Neutrons  =  14

Result:
             In ²⁸Si₁₄ Number of Neutrons are 14, Number of Protons are 14.

                                             Z  =  14 , n  =  14

Argon, which comprises almost 1% of the atmosphere, is approximately 27 times more abundant than CO 2, but does not contribute t
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The gas argon does not reach a state of vibrational excitation when infrared radiation strikes this gas.

Explanation:

The dry atmosphere is composed almost entirely of nitrogen (in a volumetric mixing ratio of 78.1%) and oxygen (20.9%), plus a series of oligogases such as argon (0.93%), helium and gases of greenhouse effect such as carbon dioxide (0.035%) and ozone. In addition, the atmosphere contains water vapor in very variable amounts (about 1%) and aerosols.

Greenhouse gases or greenhouse gases are the gaseous components of the atmosphere, both natural and anthropogenic, that absorb and emit radiation at certain wavelengths of the infrared radiation spectrum emitted by the Earth's surface, the atmosphere and clouds . In the Earth's atmosphere, the main greenhouse gases (GHG) are water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4) and ozone (O3 ). There is also in the atmosphere a series of greenhouse gases (GHG) created entirely by humans, such as halocarbons (compounds containing chlorine, bromine or fluorine and carbon, these compounds can act as potent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and they are also one of the causes of the depletion of the ozone layer in the atmosphere) regulated by the Montreal Protocol. In addition to CO2, N2O and CH4, the Kyoto Protocol sets standards regarding sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs).

The difference between argon and greenhouse gases such as CO2 is that the individual atoms in the argon do not have free bonds and therefore do not vibrate. As a consequence, it does not reach a state of vibrational excitation when infrared radiation strikes this gas.

This image shows the development of what climate phenomenon?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Rain shadow

Explanation:

Climate is the average weather condition of a place over a long period of time.

The image shows a rain shadow effect around a mountainous region. The type of rainfall controlled this way is known as an orographic rainfall.

  • On the leeward side which is the opposite side of where the rain cloud forms, there is dryness and lack of rainfall.
  • As moist air rises along the edge of the windward side, cloud forms.
  • This windward side receives a significant amount of rainfall
  • The windward side is hit with cold and dry wind and it is barren.

Using the standard enthalpies of formation found in the textbook, determine the enthalpy change for the combustion of ethanol c2
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
Enthalpy of formation is calculated by subtracting the total enthalpy of formation of the reactants from those of the products. This is called the HESS' LAW.
ΔHrxn = ΔH(products) - ΔH(reactants)

Since the enthalpies are not listed in this item, from reliable sources, the obtained enthalpies of formation are written below.
ΔH(C2H5OH) = -276 kJ/mol
ΔH(O2) = 0 (because O2 is a pure substance)
ΔH(CO2) = -393.5 kJ/mol
ΔH(H2O) = -285.5 kJ/mol

Using the equation above,
ΔHrxn = (2)(-393.5 kJ/mol) + (3)(-285.5 kJ/mol) - (-276 kJ/mol)
ΔHrxn = -1367.5 kJ/mol

<em>Answer: -1367.5 kJ/mol</em>

An atom of Fe has 30 neutrons. What is the mass number of this atom?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

56

Explanation:

The mass number of an atom is a sum of its number of protons and neutrons. Iron (Fe) has an atomic number of 26. This means that it has 26 protons. Since we know it has 26 protons and are told it has 30 neutrons. The mass number of this atom of Iron is 26+30 = 56

Hope this helped!
