One mole of any substance contains 6.022 x 10^23 atoms
Therefore, number of moles containing <span>3.28×10^23 atoms can be calculated as follows:
number of moles = (3.28 x 10^23) / (6.022 x 10^23) = 0.544 moles

From the periodic table:
molecular mass of gold = 197 grams
molecular mass of palladium = 106.4 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of gold = 197 grams
molar mass of palladium = 106.7 grams

First equation:
moles of gold + moles of palladium = 0.544 moles

Second equation:
mass of gold + mass of palladium = 67.2 grams
mass can be written as: mass = number of moles x molar mass
therefore:
(mass of gold + mass of palladium) can be rewritten as:
moles of gold x 197 + moles of palladium x 106.4 = 67.2 grams

Now, we have two equations (highlighted in bold) in two unknowns, we can solve them simultaneously to get the number of moles of each element as follows:
From equation one:
moles of gold = 0.544 - moles of palladium
Substitute with this in equation 2:
</span>(0.544 - moles of palladium) x 197 + moles of palladium x 106.4 = 67.2
 107.168 - 197 moles of palladium + 106.4 moles of palladium = 67.2
107.168 - 67.2 = 197 moles of palladium - 106.4 moles of palladium
39.968 = 90.6 moles of palladium
moles of palladium = 0.4411 moles
Substitute in equation 1 to get moles of gold:
moles of gold = 0.544 - 0.4411 = 0.1029 moles

Now, the last step is to convert the number of moles to mass:
mass = number of moles x molar mass
mass of gold = 0.1029 x 197 = 20.2713 grams
mass of palladium = 0.4411 x 106.4 = 46.93304 grams

Answer:

Engines can overheat for many reasons. In general, it's because something's wrong within the cooling system and heat isn't able to escape the engine compartment. The source of the issue could include a cooling system leak, faulty radiator fan, broken water pump, or clogged coolant hose.

Write a balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction between phosphoric acid and rubidium hydroxide.
Anastaziya [24]
Phosphoric acid is a weak acid, while rubidium hydroxide is a strong acid.

H₃PO₄ + RbOH --> Rb₃PO₄ + H₂O

We get Rb₃PO₄ because PO₄ has a charge of 3-, that is PO₄³⁻. Rb has a charge of 1+. You give the subscript of one the charge of the other as this is an ionic compound. So you end up with Rb₃PO₄, a neutral compound.

Now let's balance the equation:
H₃PO₄ + 3RbOH --> Rb₃PO₄ + 3H₂O
