Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Isotopes are the substances or species that contain same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

As it is known that atomic number means the total number of protons present in an atom. Hence, this also means that in isotopes atomic number of the species is same.

For example, isotopes of hydrogen are ^{1}_{1}H, ^{2}_{1}H, and ^{3}_{1}H.

Isotopes of only heavier elements are radioactive in nature as they have large difference in the number of protons and neutrons.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement isotopes of the same element have the same atomic number but differ in their atomic masses, is correct.

The metal rhenium becomes superconducting at temperatures below 1.4 K. Calculate the temperature at which rhenium becomes superc
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The temperature at which rhenium becomes superconducting is -271.6 ºC.

Explanation:

We can convert the temperature given in Kelvin, which is an absolute scale, into degrees Celsius. which is a relative scale, by a simple algebraic translation, that is:

T_{C} = T_{K} - 273 (1)

Where:

T_{C} - Temperature, measured in degrees Celsius.

T_{K} - Temperature, measured in Kelvins.

If we know that T_{K} = 1.4\,K, then the temperature given in degrees Celsius is:

T_{C} = 1.4\,K-273

T_{C} = -271.6\,^{\circ}C

The temperature at which rhenium becomes superconducting is -271.6 ºC.

A small bubble rises from the bottom of a lake where the temperature and pressure are 4.0 C and 3.0 atm, to the water’s surface,
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The final volume of the bubble is 7.13 mL.

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 3 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 0.95 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 2.1 mL=0.0021 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 4^oC=273.15+4K=277.15 K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 25^oC=273.15+25 k=298 .15 K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{3 atm\times 0.0021 L}{277.15 K}=\frac{0.95 atm\times V_2}{298.15 K}

V_2=\frac{3 atm\times 0.0021 L\times 298.15 K}{277.15 K\times 0.95 atm}=0.00713 L = 7.13 mL

The final volume of the bubble is 7.13 mL.

How many moles of NH₃ can be produced from 4.81 moles of nitrogen in the following reaction:
makkiz [27]

Answer:

9.62moles of NH₃

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of nitrogen  = 4.81moles

Unknown:

Number of moles of  NH₃ = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to establish a balanced reaction equation:

            N₂  +  3H₂  →  2NH₃

Now, we can solve the problem by working from the known to the unknown.

          1 mole of N₂ produced 2 moles of NH₃

         4.81moles of N₂ will produce 2 x 4.81  = 9.62moles of NH₃

Find the mass, in grams, of 5.00*10^23 molecules of F2
Westkost [7]

Answer:   31.55 g

Explanation:

- The mass number of Fluoride atom (F) = 18.99 g/mol, so mass number of         fluorine gas (F2) = 37.98 g/mol.

-  1 mole of (F2) [which has 37.98 g/mol] contains Avogadro’s number of molecules (6.02×10^23 molecules),

   so   1 mole of (F2) with 37.98 g/mol →  6.02×10^23 molecules.

- Using cross multiplication,  

                               37.98 g/mol of (F2)        →       6.02 ×10^23 molecules

                                                       ?              →        5.00 ×10^23 molecules

Hence the mass of 5.00×10^23 molecules of F2 = (37.98 × 5.00 × 10^23) / 6.02 ×10^23 = 31.55 g..

Identify each of the following energy exchanges as primarily heat or work and determine whether the sign of ΔE is positive or ne
spayn [35]

Answer:

ΔE negative,ΔE positive,ΔE positive

Explanation:

Internal energy change of a system is positive when the system acquires energy from outside and internal energy change is negative when energy is being liberated from the system.

a Sweat evaporates from skin,cooling the skin ΔE is negative as heat energy is liberated through evaporation of sweat.

b A balloon expand against an external pressure ΔE  positive because external energy is required to expand the balloon.

c An aqueous chemical reaction mixture is warmed with an external flame ΔE is positive because heat energy is provided by the external flame to warm the aqueous chemical reaction.
