The number of protons in a element determines the elements identity

<span>Atoms combine as the electrons from each atom are attracted to the nuclei of the atoms. This results in bonds ranging from 100% covalent to bonds with high ionic character. The combination of atoms to form compounds occurs when the compounds being formed are at lower energy than the original atoms.</span>

Assoli18 [71]

Because it has more protons than electrons. Protons are positive so if there is more of them than electrons, the ion will have a positive charge.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

That would be an amino acid. The $NH_{2} (amine functional group)$ and -COOH is the functional group for a carboxylic acid hence AMINO ACID.

Define measurment and its importance

suter [353]

Answer:

Explanation:

A measurement is the action of measuring something, or some amount of stuff. So it is important to measure certain things right, distance, time, and accuracy are all great things to measure. By measuring these things or in other words, by taking these measurements we can better understand the world around us.

OLga [1]

Answer:

5.9 kg

Explanation:

We must work backwards from the second step to work out the mass of oxygen.

1. Second step

Mᵣ: 55.84

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ⟶ 2Fe + 3CO₂

m/kg: 7.0

(a) Moles of Fe

$\text{Moles of FeO} = \text{7000 g Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol Fe}}{\text{55.84 g Fe}} = \text{125 mol Fe}$

(b) Moles of CO

$\text{Moles of CO} = \text{125 mol Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{3 mol CO}}{\text{2 mol Fe}} = \text{188 mol CO}$

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 72. %.

We need more CO and Fe₂O₃ to get the theoretical yield of Fe.

(c) Percent yield

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Percent yield} &=& \dfrac{\text{ actual yield}}{\text{ theoretical yield}} \times 100 \, \%\\\\ 72. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.72 &= &\dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{0.72}\\& = & \textbf{261 mol}\\\\\end{array}$

We must use 261 mol of CO to get 7.0 kg of Fe.

2. First step

Mᵣ: 32.00

2C + O₂ ⟶ 2CO

n/mol: 261

(a) Moles of O₂

$\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{261 mol CO} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{2 mol CO}} = \text{131 mol O}_{2}$

(b) Mass of O₂

$\text{Mass of O}_{2}= \text{131 mol O }_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \text{4180 g O}_{2}$

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 71. %.

We need more C and O₂ to get the theoretical yield of CO.

(c) Percent yield

$\begin{array}{rcl}71. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.71 &= &\dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{0.71}\\\\& = & \text{5900 g}\\& = & \textbf{5.9 kg}\\\end{array}$

We need 5.9 kg of O₂ to produce 7.0 kg of Fe.
