Why is nucleus of an atom charged is negatively charged?
Damm [24]

Answer:

Charge is caused by a flow of electrons, since electrons are around the nucleus they can be lost or gained by atoms. When an atom gets charged, it gains a charge, that is, it gains an electron. Since electrons are negatively charged, when an atom gains one, it also becomes negatively charged.

What expression approximates the volume of O2 consumed, measure at STP, when 55 g of Al reacts completely with excess O2?2 Al(s)
nikdorinn [45]

Answer : The volume of O_2 consumed are, 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 L.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

4Al(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3(s)

First we have to calculate the moles of Al.

\text{Moles of }Al=\frac{\text{Mass of }Al}{\text{Molar mass of }Al}

Molar mass of Al = 27 g/mole

\text{Moles of }Al=\frac{55g}{27g/mol}=2mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of O_2.

From the reaction we conclude that,

As, 4 mole of Al react with 3 moles of O_2

So, 2 mole of Al react with \frac{3}{4}\times 2=0.75\times 2 moles of O_2

Now we have to calculate the volume of O_2 consumed.

As we know that, 1 mole of substance occupies 22.4 liter volume of gas.

As, 1 mole of O_2 occupies 22.4 liter volume of O_2 gas

So, 0.75\times 2 mole of O_2 occupies 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 liter volume of O_2 gas

Therefore, the volume of O_2 consumed are, 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 L.
