C. The mass number is the amount of Protons and electrons there are combined, so 200 - 80 is 120.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option c.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or electrons that are present in a neutral atom.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of neutrons + Number of protons.

We are given:

Atomic number = 80

Mass number = 200

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number = 200 - 80 = 120

Hence, the correct answer is Option c.

Pure R,R-hydrobenzoin (side product of meso-hydrobenzoin) has a melting point of 148°C. a) What do you expect the melting point
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) melting point of S,S-hydrobenzoin should be 140°C. Since S,S-hydrobezoin and R,R-hydrobenzoin are enantiomeric pair so that their melting point and boilong point should be same.

(b) different melting point,

Racemic mixture must have different melting point in comparison to the pure enantiomers.

considering a racemic mixture, individual enantiometer possesses a greater affinity for its kind of molecules than for those of the other enantiometer

The average propane cylinder for a residential grill holds approximately 18 kg of propane. how much energy (in kj) is released b
never [62]
In order to answer this, we mus know the data for the heat of combustion of propane. This is an empirical data that you can search online. The heat of combustion is -2220 kJ/mol. The molar mass of propane of 44.1 g/mol. The solution is as follows:

ΔH = -2220 kJ/mol (1 mol/44.1 g)(1000g/1kg)(20 kg)
<em>ΔH = -1006802.721 kJ or -1 GJ</em>

If you had this equation: x(0.5)(320) = (1.2)(48)(325)
Anna71 [15]

x(0.5)(320)=(1.2)(48)(325)

160x=18720

x=18720/160

x=117
