Explanation:

It is known that an atom consists of protons, neutrons and electrons. Both protons and neutrons are located inside the nucleus of an atom whereas electrons revolve around the nucleus.

Atomic number is the total number of protons present in an atom. On the other hand, atomic mass is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

That is,     Atomic mass = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                 no. of neutrons = atomic mass - no. of protons

Therefore, we can conclude that to find the number of neutrons in an atom, subtract its number of protons from atomic mass.

Determine the total pressure of a mixture of 0.400 mole of He and 0.600 mole of Ne in a 2.00 liter container at 25oC.
harina [27]

Answer:

Total pressure of the mixture is 12.2 atm

Explanation:

Let's apply the Ideal Gases law to solve this

Total pressure . V = Total moles . R . T

Total moles = 0.4 m of He and 0.6 mole of Ne → 1 mol

P . 2L = 1 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol. K . 298K

P = ( 1 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol. K . 298K) /2L

P = 12.2 atm

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

773.43 torr

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Pressure (in inHg) = 30.45 inHg

Pressure (in torr) =?

We can convert 30.45 inHg to torr by doing the following:

1 inHg = 25.4 torr

Therefore,

30.45 inHg = 30.45 inHg × 25.4 torr / 1 inHg

30.45 inhg = 773.43 torr

Thus, 30.45 inhg is equivalent to 773.43 torr

How to separate water from a mixture of rice and peas? Please
svp [43]
Depending on the type of pea, the peas should come to the top as they are lighter and larger. Then just scoop or brush them off into another container. If you separate it into smaller batches and work them one by one, you should then find you get pure rice batches left which you can put in their own container.
