Answer: proton number = 16

Electron number =16

Neutron number =16

Explanation: Mass number = 32

Atomic number = 16

atomic number = proton number = 16.

Since the atom is neutral, proton number is the same as electron number i.e Electron number = proton number =16

Mass number = proton + Neutron

32 = 16 + Neutron

Neutron = 32 — 16 = 16

A fish is removed from a contaminated lake. You determine that a particular toxin (X) is present in its cells at concentration X

netineya [11]

The level of toxins in the fish's cell is equivalent to the level of toxins in the water. Therefore, in order to reduce the toxins further, we should replace the now contaminated water with clean water. After the level of toxins in the fish's cell stops reducing, we replace the water with clean water once again.

Mg3N2(s)+6H2O(l)→3Mg(OH)2(s)+2NH3(g) When 36.0 g of H2O react, how many grams of NH3 are produced? When 36.0 g of H2O react, how

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

11.3 g of $NH_{3}$ are produced from 36.0 g of $H_{2}O$

Explanation:

1. The balanced chemical equation is the following:

$Mg_{3}N_{2}(s)+6H_{2}O(l)=3Mg(OH)_{2}(s)+2NH_{3}(g)$

2. Use the molar mass of the $H_{2}O$ , the molar mass of the $NH_{3}$ and the stoichiometry of the balanced chemical reaction to find how many grams of $NH_{3}$ are produced:

Molar mass $H_{2}O$ = 18 $\frac{g}{mol}$

Molar mass $NH_{3}$ = 17 $\frac{g}{mol}$

$36.0gH_{2}O*\frac{1molH_{2}O}{18gH_{2}O}*\frac{2molesNH_{3}}{6molesH_{2}O}*\frac{17gNH_{3}}{1molNH_{3}}=11.3gNH_{3}$

Therefore 11.3 g of $NH_{3}$ are produced from 36.0 g of $H_{2}O$

Johanna makes the table below to organize her notes about centripetal forces. Which type of force should she place in the cell m

Valentin [98]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option 2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Centripetal force is defined as the force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed towards the center around which the body is moving.

Mathematically,

$F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}$
