5 0

Explanation:

Matter also exhibits physical properties. Physical properties are used to observe and describe matter. Physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter. These are properties such as mass, weight, volume, and density.

How to find how many electrons are in an element
Murljashka [212]

Explanation:

1) Locate the atomic number in the upper left corner of the square. The atomic number will tell you the number of protons

2) In a neutral state, the element will contain the same number of protons as it will electrons.

--> Boron (B) has an atomic number of 5, so it has 5 protons.

--> Having 5 protons (+1 charge each) means to be balanced, it must have 5 electrons (-1 charge each)

However, what if it's not in a neutral state?

If it's not in a neutral state, it will look something like this:

Ca ^ 2+

<em>Btw, the "^" means that it will be written like it's an exponent. That confuses people sometimes.</em>

Anyways, the "2+" means it's an ion with a positive charge of 2. For us to have a positive charge, it means it's lost two electrons (cause electrons are negative, so taking them away means we are left with a more positive charge).

To get the number of remaining electrons, subtract the 2 from the atomic mass. In this case, that would be 20.

20 - 2 = 18 electrons

Another example:

N ^3-

Atomic Number: 7

7 + 3 = 10 electrons.

Why did I add here instead of subtracting? It's cause the 3- means we have added electrons, resulting in the ion having a negative charge. It's got more electrons than usual.

Hopefully this helps a bit.

If 12.5 grams of the original sample of cesium-137 remained after 90.6 years, what was the mass of the original sample?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Mass of original sample = 100 g

Explanation:

Half life of cesium-137 = 30.17 years

t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{\ln2}{30.17}\ year^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.02297 year⁻¹

Time = 90.6 years

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Initial concentration [A_0] = ?

Final concentration [A_t] = 12.5 grams

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

12.5\ g=[A_0]e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}

[A_0]=\frac{12.5}{e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}}\ g=100\ g

<u>Mass of original sample = 100 g</u>

Both __________ and __________ can be classified as pure substances because they have distinct properties and composition.
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Both <u>elements </u>and <u>compounds</u> can be classifies as pure substances because they have distinct properties and composition.

Explanation:

Elements and compounds are considered as pure substances because both are always formed form are have same kind of atoms.

For example,

Carbon dioxide is compound. It always consist of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

Water is compound it always have same kind of atoms two hydrogen and one oxygen that's why compounds are considered as pure substances.

Same is the case with elements. For example,

Hydrogen is element and it always consist of H atoms.

Iron is another element and it always have iron atoms.

So elements and compounds are always consist of same substances that's why they are considered as pure.
