An acid containing the cooh group is called a carbo-oxy acid.

What is the atomic number of an atom that has 2 electrons 3 protons and 4 neutrons

zalisa [80]

Hi,
The atomic number of an element depends on how many protons there are in one atom of that element. If the atom has 3 protons, its atomic number will be 3.

Hope this helps! If my answer was not clear enough or you’d like further explanation please let me know.

The best recrystallization solvent for benzil was ethanol. what would be the consequence of using acetone as the recrystallizati

Vitek1552 [10]

<span>Recrystallization is another method of purification of solids in which an impure solid is crystallize repeatedly to obtain amore pure solid and a larger one. Ethanol is better suited as solvent in recrystallization of benzene than acetone because it becomes soluble with benzene at a higher temperature. Ethanol is non polar and may react well with benzyl but acetone are is non polar. A difference in their polarity, especially in heating both benzyl and the solvent can lead to more impurities that cannot be removed.</span>

s sample of thorium-234 has a half life of 25 days. will all the thorium undergo radioactive decay in 50 days?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

25% thorium will left after 50 days.

Explanation:

Half life:

A nuclear half is the time period of radioactive material in which its amount remain halved.

In given question it is stated that the half life thorium-234 is 25 days. Which means after passing the 25 days the amount of thorium must be halved of original amount.

For example,

If the original concentration was 100%, than after 25 days it will be 50%.

After 50 days amount of thorium left:

Number of half life = T (elapsed) / T half life

Number of half life = 50/25

Number of half life = 2

At first half life amount of thorium left = 100/2 = 50

After second half life amount of thorium left = 50/2 = 25

Total amount decayed = 50+25 = 75

Amount left after 50 days = 100-75 = 25

25% thorium will left after 50 days.

Two samples of the same compound are compared. what does the data represent? sample 1: 24.22 g carbon and 32.00 g oxygen sample

goblinko [34]

According to law of definite proportion:

In a compound, elements are always arranged in fixed ratio by mass.

Here, sample 1 has 23.22 g Carbon and 32.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{24.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 2 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{32 g}{16 g/mol}=2 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=2:2=1:1$

Therefore, formula of compound will be CO.

Sample 2:

It has 36.22 g Carbon and 48.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{36.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 3 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{48 g}{16 g/mol}=3 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=3:3=1:1$

The formula of compound will be CO.

Therefore, it is proved that carbon and oxygen are present in fixed ratios in both the samples.

How is the pH of an acidic substance raised?

ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

An acid is a substance that produces excess hydroxonium ions in solution.

An acid based on the pH scale is a substance that has a low pH. Acid lies within a range of 1-7 on the pH scale.

A pH of 7 is for neutral compounds like water.
A pH greater that 7 is for basic compounds.
In order to raise the pH, we are driving at a substance becoming more neutral or basic.

This can be achieved by adding more base to the solution of the substance. When we add more base, hydroxyl ions will neutralize the excess hydroxonium ions and drag the pH towards that of neutrality.

Addition of more base can eventually make the substance basic.
