ExtremeBDS [4]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Neutral.

Explanation:

Protons have a positive charge. In this problem there are 12.

Electrons have a negative charge. In this problem there are 12.

Neutrons have a neutral charge that isn't relevant tot the overall charge, it can be ignored.

#protons - #e- = charge

12 - 12 = 0

The protons and electrons balance each other out, resulting in a 0 net charge. This means the atom has a neutral charge.

How many grams of a stock solution that is 92.5 percent H2SO4 by mass would be needed to make 250 grams of a 35.0 percent by mas
IrinaVladis [17]

94.6 g.  You must use 94.6 g of 92.5 % H_2SO_4 to make 250 g of 35.0 % H_2SO_4.

We can use a version of the <em>dilution formula</em>

<em>m</em>_1<em>C</em>_1 = <em>m</em>_2<em>C</em>_2

where

<em>m</em> represents the mass and

<em>C</em> represents the percent concentrations

We can rearrange the formula to get

<em>m</em>_2= <em>m</em>_1 × (<em>C</em>_1/<em>C</em>_2)

<em>m</em>_1 = 250 g; <em>C</em>_1 = 35.0 %

<em>m</em>_2 = ?; _____<em>C</em>_2 = 92.5 %

∴ <em>m</em>_2 = 250 g × (35.0 %/92.5 %) = 94.6 g
