The answer would be 68. The atomic number will signify the number of protons in an element so if the atomic number is 68, then the number of protons is 68 and the number of electrons is also 68 in order to maintain a nuclear charge.

Answer: 68.

Explanation:

The atomic number is the number that idenfities an element.

The atomic number is the number of protons of an element.

Every element has a different number of protons.

The elements are arranged in the periodic table as per their atomic number (number of protons).

The first element is hydrogen (H), its atomic number is 1, and it has 1 proton.

The second element is helium (He), its atomic number is 2 (it has 2 protons)-

Those two elements form the first period (row) of the periodic table.

The second row (period) has the elements Li, Be, B, C, N, O, F and Ne, whose respective atomic numbers (number of protons are) 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, respectively.

And so, you may idenfity each of the 118 elements known, with a different atomic number (number of protons).

What is the Na+ concentration in each of the following solutions:
iren [92.7K]

Sodium Sulfate = Na2(SO4) meaning there are two ions of Na+ in one mole of Sodium Sulfate the M stands for Molarity, defined as Molarity = (moles of solute)/(Liters of solution), So if the Na2SO4 solution is 3.65M that means one Liter of has 3.65 moles of Na2SO4, the stoichiometry of Na2SO4 shows that there would be two Na+ ions in solution for every one Na2SO4.

Therefore if 3.65 moles of Na2SO4 was to dissolve, it would produce 7.3 moles of Na+, and since this is still a theoretical solution, we can assume 1 L of solution.

Finally we find [Na+] = 2*3.65 = 7.3M

Use the same logic for parts b and c

Is atomic weight a whole number or not a whole number
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Atomic mass of an element is not a whole number because It contains isotopes. For example, chlorine has two isotopes 1735Cl and 1737Cl with natural abundances in the approximate ratio of 3:1. Hence, the average atomic mass of chlorine is approximately 35.5 g/mol.

Hope this helps! If so please mark brainliest and rate/heart if it did to help my account out!!

The decomposition of carbon disulfide to carbon monosulfide and sulfur is first order with k=2.8 ×10^-7 at 1000°C .What is the h
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

2.5×10⁶ s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

The half-life of a first order reaction is given by:

Half-life (t½) = 0.693 / Rate constant (K)

t½ = 0.693 / K

With the above formula, we can obtain the half-life of the reaction as follow:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

t½ = 0.693 / K

t½ = 0.693 / 2.8×10¯⁷

t½ = 2.5×10⁶ s

Therefore, the half-life of the reaction is 2.5×10⁶ s

A filament of a light bulb is made from a pure sample of tungsten.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The correct options are:

1) Pure chemical substance

2) Element.

Explanation:

each of the term is explained below:

1) <u>Mixture: </u> Since tungsten is an element in periodic table thus it is not a mixture.

2) False by definition of mixture.

3) false by definition of mixture.

4) <u>Solution:</u> Tungsten in a filament is in solid form hence solution is incorrect.

5) Since it is given in the question itself that the sample is pure hence option 'E' is correct as chemical substance is a pure substance that has a homogeneous composition and the sample in the question is given as pure.

6) <u>Compound:</u> By definition of compound it is formed by mixing 2 or more elements but since tungsten is an element that occurs independently in nature hence it is not a compound.

7) Tungsten is a element in the periodic table with atomic number 74.
