<u>Answer:</u> The isotopic symbol of element is _{32}^{72}\textrm{Ge}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons that are present in an atom. It is represented as 'Z'

Z = Atomic number = Number of protons

Mass number of an element is defined as the sum of number of neutrons and number of protons that are present in an atom. It is represented as 'A'.

A = Mass number = Number of neutrons + Number of protons

The isotopic representation of an atom is: _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

We are given:

Number of protons = Atomic number = 32

Mass number = 72

The element having atomic number as 32 is germanium

Hence, the isotopic symbol of element is _{32}^{72}\textrm{Ge}

If you count the number of electrons (small dots), you have the atomic number. In this case you have 11 so this atom is a sodium atom. Sodium has 1 valence electron (electron on the outer shell) and chlorine has 7. This means that if sodium gave one electron away and chlorine would obtain one electron, they would both have the (ideal) noble gas conformation (full outer shell).

5.Are pure solids included in equilibrium expressions? Explain your answer.
tatiyna

Answer:

Pure solids or liquids are excluded from the equilibrium expression because their effective concentrations stay constant throughout the reaction. The concentration of a pure liquid or solid equals its density divided by its molar mass.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Question:

A chemistry student needs of 10 g isopropenylbenzene for an experiment. He has available 120 g of a 42.7% w/w solution of isopropenylbenzene in acetone. Calculate the mass of solution the student should use. If there's not enough solution, press the "No solution" button.

Answer:

The answer to the question is as follows

The mass of solution the student should use is 23.42 g.

Explanation:

To solve the question we note the following

A solution containing 42.7 % w/w of isopropenylbenzene in acetone  has 42.7 g of isopropenylbenzene in 100 grams of the solution

Therefore we have 10 g of isopropenylbenzene contained in

100 g * 10 g/ 42.7 g = 23.42 g of solution

Available solution = 120 g

Therefore the quantity to used from the available solution = 23.42 g of the isopropenylbenzene in acetone solution.
