Answer is: low reactivity.

Nitrogen (N) is in group 15 of Periodic table of elements and his atomic number is seven, which means that nitrogen has seven electrons and electron configuration: ₇N 1s²2s²2p³.

Nitrogen is inert (low reactivity) nonmetal and has five valence electrons. Nitrogen has oxidation numbers from -3 to +5.

Nitrogen molecule (N₂) has strong nonpolar triple covalent bond, that is why it is very stable and have low reactivity.

13.8g element consist 4.6 ×10^22 atoms what is atomic mass of element?​
Keith_Richards [23]
<h2>~<u>Solution</u> :-</h2>
  • Here, to find the atomic mass of element, we must;

We know that,

  • 4.6 x $ \sf{10^{22}}$ atoms of an element weigh 13.8g.

Thus,

The atoms of $ \sf{ 6.02 \times 10^{13}}$ will weigh;

=   \sf{\frac{13.8  \times 6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }{4.6 \times {10}^{22} } } \\

=  \sf{180.6 \: g \:  \: (molar \: mass)}

  • Hence, the molar mass (atomic mass) will be <u>180.6 g.</u>

How long is a red blood cell
Lera25 [3.4K]
I suspect this question should read "How long does a red blood cell live." A red blood cell lives for between 100 and 120 days. It takes 7 days for a new red blood cell to develop from stem cells. Stem cells are similar to base cells. They can also be seen as a general template from which specialized cells are made. Stem cells can be taken from a newborn baby's umbilical chord or extracted from an adult blood donor's blood.This

What mass of zinc is needed to react with 23.1g of phosphoric acid according to the following equation?
Hunter-Best [27]

23.01 g of zinc (Zn)

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

3 Zn + 2 H₃PO₄ = 3 H₂ + Zn₃(PO₄)₂

number of moles = mass / molar weight

number of moles of phosphoric acid = 23.1 / 98 = 0.236 moles

Taking in account the chemical reaction, we devise the following reasoning:

if           2 moles of H₃PO₄ are reacting with 3 moles of Zn

then      0.236 moles of H₃PO₄ are reacting with X moles of Zn

X = (0.236 × 3) / 2 = 0.354 moles of Zn

mass = number of moles × molar weight

mass of Zn = 0.354 × 65 = 23.01 g
