Answer:

Protons = 50

Mass number = 119

Explanation:

A neutral of tin, Sn, has a Z value of 50 and neutrons are 69.

Z is the atomic number. The atomic number is equal to number of protons or number of electrons in an atom that is neutral i.e:

Z = PROTONS = ELECTRONS

So the number of protons = 50 since Z is 50

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>¦

The bulk of the mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus. To calculate mass number, we simply sum all the elementary particles in the nucleus i.e protons and neutrons. These particles are called the nucleons.

Mass number (A) = P + N

= 50 + 69

= 119

Workers do 8000 J of work on a 2000-N crate to push it up a ramp. If the ramp is 2 m high, what is the efficiency of the ramp?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Efficiency = work out / work in

e = Fd / W

e = (2000 N) (2 m) / (8000 J)

e = 0.5

In a fit of rage, Terry throws a ball into the air with a velocity of 100 m/s. At the highest point of it's trajectory, what is
Oxana [17]

From the moment it leaves Terry's hand ... all the way up and then all the way down ... until the moment the ball hits the ground, its acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2 downward. That's the acceleration of gravity (on Earth), and gravity is the only force acting on the ball.

By the way ... Terry needs to control his rage and go get a job as a pitcher for Major League Baseball. That 100 m/s of his is more than double the speed that professional pitchers typically deliver !

A reaction has a rate constant of 0.0117 s-1 at 400.0 k and 0.689 s-1 at 450.0 k. calculate the activation energy in kilojoules
Zina [86]
By definition we have to:
 LOG (k2 / k1)=(-Ea/R)*(1/T1-1/T2)
 Where,
 k1 = 0.0117 s-1
 K2 = 0.689 s-1
 T1 = 400.0 k
 T2 = 450.0 k
 R is the ideal gas constant
 R = 8.314 KJ / (Kmol * K)
 Substituting
 ln (0.0117/0.689)=-Ea/(8.314)*((1/400)-(1/450))
 Clearing Ea:
 Ea = 122 kJ
 answer
<span> the activation energy in kilojoules for this reaction is
</span> Ea = 122 kJ
