Answer:

Total worth of gold in the ocean = $5,840,000,000,000,000

Explanation:

As stated in the question above, 4.0 x 10^-10 g of gold was present in 2.1mL of ocean water.

Therefore, In 1 L of ocean water there will be,

(4.0 x 10^-10)/0.0021

= 1.9045 x 10^-7 g of gold per Liter of ocean water.

So in 1.5 x 10^-21 L of ocean water, there will be

(1.9045 x 10^-7) * (1.5 x 10^-21)

= 2.857 x 10^14 g of gold in the ocean.

1 gram of gold costs $20.44, that is 20.44 dollars/gram. The total cost of the gold present in the ocean is

20.44 * (2.857 x 10^14)

= $5,840,000,000,000,000

Element Q is a theoretical nonmetal with atomic number 59. Consider the isotope: Q-95. How many electrons are in an atom of Q-95
Vinil7 [7]

60

Explanation:

The number of electrons in an atom of Q-95 will be 60 electrons.

The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the atom of the isotope

This number is unique to every atom and their isotope

An isotope of an atom is the existence of an atom having the same atomic number but different mass numbers.

Since atomic number the same as number of protons, they are the positively charged particles in an atom.

To have a negative charge, the number of electrons must be more than that of protons.

Charge = number of protons - number electrons

  charge = -1

  -1 = 59  - number of electrons

  Number of electrons = 60 electrons

Pls help
Simora [160]

Heat required to raise the temperature = 159.505 J

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

c = specific heat of Beryllium = 1.825 J/g C

m = mass = 2.3 g

Δt = Temperature difference : 60 - 22 = 38 °C

Required

Heat required

Solution

Heat can be formulated

Q = m.c.Δt

Input the value :

Q = 2.3 x 1.825 x 38

Q = 159.505 J

Copper metal (Cu) reacts with silver nitrate (AgNO3) in aqueous solution to form Ag and Cu(NO3)2. An excess of AgNO3 is present.

Toichiometry time! Remember to look at the equation for your molar ratios in other problems.
31.75 g Cu | 1 mol Cu | 2 mol Ag | 107.9 g Ag         6851.65⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻   →   ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻  = 107.9 g Ag       ∅        | 63.5 g Cu | 1 mol Cu | 1 mol Ag              63.5

There's also a shorter way to do this: Notice the molar ratio from Cu to Ag, which is 1:2. When you plug in 31.75 into your molar mass for Cu, it equals 1/2 mol. That also means that you have 1 mol Ag because of the ratio, qhich you can then plug into your molar mass, getting 107.9 as well.

From the given elements Na, P , Ca ,Br which one has highest first ionization energy , ,smallest atomic size , most metallic cha
madam [21]

Answer:

highest first ionization energy - Br

smallest atomic size - Br

most metallic character - Na

Explanation:

Ionization energy of Br is higher than P because higher zeff value

Sodium is more metallic than calcium because it is able to loose electron more readily as compared to calcium because of higher electro positivity.

Atomic radius of Br is the smallest as its atomic radius is 114, P (115), Ca (197), Na (186)
