The atomic number of sulfur is 16, which indicates that a sulfur atom contains

1 answer:

8 0

The atomic number of an element indicates only how many protons are in that specific element. The atomic number of sulfur is 16, so it means that in one sulfur atom, there are 16 protons. The number of protons is also equal to the number of electrons in any given atom, so this number also indicates that there are 16 electrons in a sulfur atom.

In the reaction 2H2O (l) + 2Cl– (aq) → H2 (g) + Cl2 (g) + 2OH– (aq), which substance is oxidized?

pashok25 [27]

F. None of the above [Cl^(-) is oxidized]

No Cl atoms are available to be oxidized, only Cl^(-)ions

2Cl^(-) → Cl_2 + 2e^(-)

The substance that loses electrons is oxidized.

Remember OIL RIG (Oxidation Is Loss of electrons) and

LEO the lion says GER (Loss of Electrons is Oxidation).

What caused the dawn horse to go extinct??

Vikentia [17]

The "Dawn horses" were actually not related to horses! Recent studies of fossils found that "Dawn Horses" were buried in the same rock layers as modern horses! evolutionists were shocked at first but then decided that the "Dawn horse" was related to rabbits! Now to answer your question no one really knows why they went extinct. Evolutionist believe they changed into rabbits and Creationists (people who believe God created the universe and that evolution is incorrect) believe they died out due to climate changes after the global flood of Noah.

How do you prepare 1 liter of a 0.5 molar glucose solution?

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: 90 grams

0.5 molar of glucose means 0.5mole glucose for 1 liter of water. Since we want to made 1L of solution, then the amount of glucose needed is: 0.5mole/l x 1l= = 0.5mole

Glucose molecular weight is 180, then 0,5 mol of glucose is= 0.5mole x 180 grams/mole= 90 grams.
