<span>210. moles To determine the number of moles of a substance you have, simply divide the mass of the substance you have by its molar mass. So 3.79 kg / 18.02 g/mol = 3790 g / 18.02 g/mol = 210.3218646 mol Since we only have 3 significant figures, the answer should be rounded to 3 figures, giving 210. as the result. Notice that the decimal point is required. If you state the number of moles is 210, then that answer will only have 2 significant figures. But the value of 210. has 3 significant figures.</span>

First, we will convert the mass of the gallon to grams:
a gallon of water has a mass of 3.79 * 1000 = 3790 grams of water

number of moles can be calculated using the following rule:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore,
number of moles = 3790 / 18.02 = 210.32 moles

Which which atom is held together by covalent bonds?

Sedaia [141]

Covalent bonds are strong bonds. Atoms that share pairs of electrons form molecules. A molecule is a group of atoms held together by covalent bonds. A diatomic molecule is a molecule containing only two atoms.

When 4.50 L of hydrogen gas react with an excess of nitrogen gas at standard temperature and pressure, how many liters of ammoni

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

3.0 L of NH₃

Solution:

The equation is as follow,

N₂ + 3 H₂ → 2 NH₃

According to equation,

67.2 L (3 mole) H₂ at STP produces = 44.8 L (3 mole) of NH₃

So,

4.50 L of H₂ will produce = X L of NH₃

Solving for X,

X = (4.50 L × 44.8 L) ÷ 67.2 L

X = 3.0 L of NH₃

Determine the number of unpaired electrons in Ca?

serg [7]

When an electron occupies an orbital of an atom singly, rather than an electron pair such electron is said to be an unpaired electron. Each atomic orbital of an atom specified by quantum numbers can contain a maximum of two electrons having opposite spins, electron pair.

The numbers of unpaired electrons are determined by the electronic configuration of an atom. The electronic configuration of calcium, $Ca$ is:

$1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}4s^{2}$ or $[Ar]4s^{2}$

Since, from the electronic configuration it is clear that the number of electrons in valence orbital that is $4s$ is 2 that means the electrons are paired up in the valence orbital so, there are no unpaired electrons present in $Ca$ .

Hence, the number of unpaired electrons in $Ca$ is 0.
