120 neutrons are present in mercury
vivado [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

120 neutrons

Explanation:

Mercury has an atomic number of 80. The atomic number (Z) represents the number of protons. Then,

Z = p⁺ = 80

Mercury has a mass number of 200. The mass number (A) represents the sum of protons and neutrons. Then,

A = p⁺ + n° = 200

We can establish that,

A = Z + n°

n° = A - Z

n° = 200 - 80 = 120

Calculate the number of O atoms in 0.150 g of CaSO4 · 2H2O.
natulia [17]

Answer:

There are 0.00523 moles of oxygen in 0.150 grams of calcium sulfate crystal.

Explanation:

Mass of calcium sulfate crystal = m = 0.150 g

Molar mass of calcium sulfate crystal = M = 172 g/mol

Moles of magnesium nitrate = n

n=\frac{m}{M}

n=\frac{0.150 g}{172 g/mol}=0.0008721 mol

1 mole of calcium sulfate crystal has 6 moles of oxygen atoms. Then 0.004446 moles calcium sulfate crystal will have :

6\times 0.0008721 mol=0.0052326mol\approx 0.00523 mol

There are 0.00523 moles of oxygen in 0.150 grams of calcium sulfate crystal.

What things typically are counted in multiples or fractions of moles
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Individually well, defined identical chemically units such as molecules, ions, atoms, or electrons

Explanation:

The mole is used as the unit of measurement for substance such as molecules, ions, atoms, or electrons. One mole of a substance is equivalent to 6.02×10²³ particles of the substance. The number, 6.02 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro's number.

The particles quantified as moles are individually well, defined identical chemically units such that the mole can be used to describe a part of a substance or the whole substance consisting of several moles of the substance combined.

Which statements accurately describe binary star systems? Check all that apply. have more than two stars have stars that are alw
Westkost [7]

Answer:

have stars that might appear to wobble

often have one star that is brighter than the other

Explanation:

A binary star system is a star system made up of mostly two stars that moves round their common fixed center.

The two orbiting stars are gravitationally bonded to one another and they move round each other.

Most binary stars might appear wobble. One of the stars often appears brighter than the other.

Answer: 25.8 g of Cl_2 will be produced from the decomposition of 73.4 g of AuCl_3

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} AuCl_3=\frac{73.4g}{303g/mol}=0.242moles

The balanced chemical reaction is:

2AuCl_3\rightarrow 2Au+3Cl_2  

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of AuCl_3 produce =  3 moles of Cl_2

Thus 0.242 moles of  will produce= \frac{3}{2}\times 0.242=0.363mol of Cl_2

Mass of Cl_2= moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.363mol\times 71g/mol=25.8g

Thus 25.8 g of Cl_2 will be produced from the decomposition of 73.4 g of AuCl_3
