Answer:

146

Explanation:

The mass of uranium- 238  is  238  mass units. The total mass of an element is the sum of its protons and neutrons.  There are  92  protons in this isotope, and its mass is  238 , so that means that there are,  238 − 92 = 146  neutrons. Thus, as weird as it may seem, the answer must be D.

NaH(s)+ H2O (l)=>NaOH(aq)+H2(g)

You want to calculate the mass of NaH, I assume.  Otherwise, the question isn't clear.  It simply says calculate the mass(??)

 

So, calculate the moles of H2 gas that satisfy the conditions of 982 ml at 28ºC and 765 torr.  But you must subtract the vapor pressure of water at 28º to get the actual pressure of the H2 gas.  So, the actual conditions are 982 ml (0.982 L) and 301 K and 765-28 = 737 torr.

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT = (737 torr)(0.982 L)/(62.4 L-torr/Kmol)(301 K)

n = 0.0385 moles H2

 

moles NaH needed = 0.0385 moles H2 x 1 mole NaH/mole H2 = 0.0385 moles NaH required

mass of NaH needed = 0.0385 moles x 24 g/mole = 0.925 g NaH
