I believe that adding soap will make the paperclip fall through the water to the base of the dish. Soap is a surfactant, which decreases the surface pressure of the water. The surface strain of water is what upheld the paperclip in the first place, so with the decrease in surface pressure the paper clip will fall.

How many moles of hydrogen are required to react with 4.6 x 10 22 molecules of nitrogen?
V125BC [204]

Answer: 6 moles

Take a look at the balanced chemical equation for this synthesis reaction

N 2(g] + 3 H 2(g] → 2 NH 3(g]

Notice that you have a  1:3  mole ratio between nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas. This means that, regardless of how many moles of nitrogen gas you have, the reaction will always consume twice as many moles of hydrogen gas.

So, if you have  2 moles of nitrogen taking part in the reaction, you will need

2 moles N 2 ⋅ 3 moles H 2 /1 mole N 2 = 6 moles H 2

Enter the atomic symbol, including mass number and atomic number, for iodine-130.
WINSTONCH [101]

<u>Answer:</u> The atomic symbol of the given element is _{53}^{130}\textrm{I}

<u>Explanation:</u>

The general isotopic representation of an element is given as:  _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents the atomic number of the element

A represents the mass number of the element

X represents the symbol of an element

For the given isotope: 130-iodine

Mass number = 130

Atomic number = 53

Hence, the atomic symbol of the given element is _{53}^{130}\textrm{I}
