1 mole of platinum has a mass of 195 g therefore 1 atom will have a mass of 195 g /(6.02 ×10^23) = 3.239 × 10^-22 g
Density is given by dividing mass by volume, thus to get volume, mass is divided by density. 
The volume = (3.239 × 10^-22)/21.4 
                    = 1.514 × 10^-23 cm³
But volume of a sphere is given by 4/3πr³
Therefore, r³ = 3.6129 × 10^-24 
                 r   = ∛(3.6129 × 10^-24)
                      = 1.534 × 10^ -8 cm
Therefore, the radius of the platinum atom is 1.534 × 10^-8 cm

What is the pH of a solution with hydrogen ion concentration of 1 x 10^–6 M?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 6,00.

Explanation:

The pH indicates the acidity or basicity of a substance. pH values between 0 and less than 7 indicate acidic solutions, 7 neutral and greater than 7 to 14 basic. It is calculated as:

pH = -log (H +)

pH= -log (1x10^-6)

<em>pH= 6, 00</em>

How to know if a metal reacted with an acid
enot [183]

Answer: Hydrogen gas will be given off

Explanation:

Whenever a metal reacts with an acid, a salt of the metal is formed and hydrogen gas is given off.

For instance: The reaction of Zinc metal on Hydrochloric acid.

Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) ---> ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)

From the equation provided, hydrogen gas is given off as a by-product

Write a balanced chemical equation, including states of matter, for the combustion of gaseous benzene, c6h6.
snow_tiger [21]
Almost all hydrocarbon 'burn' reactions involve oxygen; it's by far the most reactive substance in air. 

<span>Hydrocarbon combustions always involve </span>
<span>[some hydrocarbon] + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + steam. </span>

C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> CO2 (g)+ H2O (g)

<span>Balance carbon, six on each side: </span>
C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> 6CO2 (g)+ H2O (g)

<span>Balance hydrogen, six on each side: </span>
C6H6(l) + O2 (g)--> 6CO2(g) + 3H2O (g)

<span>Now, we have fifteen oxygens on the right and O2 on the left. </span>
<span>Two ways to deal with that. We can use a fraction: </span>
C6H6 (l)+ (15/2)O2 (g)--> 6CO2 (g)+ 3H2O (g)

<span>Or, if you prefer to have whole number coefficients, double everything </span>
<span>to get rid of the fraction: </span>
2C6H6 (l)+ 15O2 (g)--> 12CO2 (g)+ 6H2O (g)

<span>With the SATP states thrown in... </span>
C6H6(l) + (15/2)O2(g) --> 6CO2(g) + 3H2O(g)
