Answer;

D. carbon-12 atom

Explanation;

-One atomic mass unit is the mass that is exactly equal to one-twelfth the mass of one carbon-12 atom. Therefore, the mass of carbon-12 is 12 amu and this provides the standard that is used in measuring the atomic mass of all other elements.

-The atomic mass of carbon is 12.01 and not 12.00 in the periodic table.

-Due to the fact that there are more than one element for most naturally occurring elements, the average mass of the naturally occurring mixture of isotopes is taken while determining the atomic mass of an element.

What is the mass of a 500.00 mL sample of seawater with a density of 1.025 g/mL?
iragen [17]

Answer:

Mass of seawater = 512.5 gram

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of seawater = 500 ml

Density of seawater = 1.025 g/ml

Find:

Mass of seawater

Computation:

Mass of seawater = Volume of seawater × Density of seawater

Mass of seawater = 500 × 1.025

Mass of seawater = 512.5 gram

Doreen Schmidt is a chemist. She needs to prepare 28 ounces of a 12​% hydrochloric acid solution. Find the amount of 14​% soluti
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

20 ounces of 14% solution and 8 ounces of 7% solution.

Explanation:

Let the amount of 14% solution required be A and the amount of 7% solution required be B.

Mixture of A and B must give 28 ounces:

A + B = 28 ................. Eqn 1

Also, mixture of 14% A and 7% B must give 12%, 28 ounces solution:

0.14A + 0.07B = 0.12(28) = 3.36...................Eqn 2

From eqn 1, B = 28 - A, eqn 2 becomes:

0.14A + 0.07(28 - A) = 3.36

0.07A = 3.36 - 1.96

A = 20 ounces

Substitute the value of A into eqn 1 to get B:

20 + B = 28

B = 8 ounces.

Hence, 20 ounces of 14% hydrochloric acid and 8 ounces of 7% hydrochoric acid should be mixed together in order to get 28 ounces of 12% solution.

   I                                 +1                                                           1

   II                                 +2                                                         2

   III                                +3                                                          3

   IV                           +4 or -4                                                     4

   V                                  -3                                                         5

  VIII                                 0                                                          8

For elements in group IV and above, their ionic charge is (8-number of their valence electrons.)
