A solid metal oxide crystallizes in a cubic unit cell. In the unit cell there are metal (M) ions on every corner and in the cent

er of every face. Oxide ions (O) are found in half of the tetrahedral holes. What is the empirical formula of this metal oxide?

Answer:

The empirical formula of the solid metal oxide is : MO

Explanation:

M atom is present in the every corner and in the center of every face.

Number of m atoms :

\frac{1}{8}\times 8+\frac{1}{2}\times 6=4

Number of tetrahedral voids in F.C.C = 2n = 2 × 4 = 8

Oxide ion is present in the half of the tetrahedral void

Number oxide ions = \frac{8}{2}=4

The molecular formula of the solid metal oxide is : M_4O_4=MO

The empirical formula represent the lowest number of atoms present in a compound.

The empirical formula of the solid metal oxide is : MO

Carbon exists in nature as three isotopes. Given the atomic masses and relative abundance of the isotopes, what is the average a
Ivan

The most abundant carbon isotope is carbon-12.

The relative atomic mass of carbon is 12.011, which is extremely close to 12.0. This means that the masses C-13, and C-14 are practically negligible when contributing to the relative atomic mass of carbon.

the C-12 isotope makes up 98.9% of carbon atoms, C-13 makes up 1.1% of carbon atoms, and C-14 makes up just a trace of carbon atoms as they are found in nature.

A. What are the half-reactions for the redox reaction CuCl2 + Zn → ZnCl2 + Cu? Label the oxidation
GenaCL600 [577]

The oxidation half equation is Zn ------> Zn^2+ + 2e while the reduction half equation is Cu^2+  + 2e------> Cu.

A redox reaction is a reaction in which there is a loss/gain of electrons. The specie that gives out electrons experiences an increase in oxidation number while the specie that gains the electrons experiences a decrease in oxidation number.

For the reaction; CuCl2 + Zn → ZnCl2 + Cu

The oxidation half equation is;

Zn ------> Zn^2+ + 2e

The reduction half equation is;

Cu^2+  + 2e------> Cu

The chloride ion is excluded because its oxidation number does not change from left to right in the reaction.

A 2.9 kg model rocket accelerates at 15.3 m/s2 with a force of 44 N. Before launch, the model rocket was not moving. After the s
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Newton's first and third law of Motion

Explanation:

The laws applying in the example Newton's first and third laws of Motion.

  • The first law states that any object at rest (ie. not moving) will stay at rest until it is forced to move by an external force. In this case, said force were the propulsion gases ignited.
  • As the hot gases were pushed out from the engine nozzle, there was another force <em>equal in magnitud but opposite in direction</em> (as the gases went down, that force went upwards), said force is directly responsible for the rocket taking off. That is an example of the third law.
