Answer: C) number of protons
Is a function defined for a system relating several state variables or state quantities that depends only on the current equilibrium thermodynamic state of the system[1] (e.g. gas, liquid, solid, crystal, or emulsion), not the path which the system took to reach its present state. A state function describes the equilibrium state of a system, thus also describing the type of system. For example, a state function could describe an atom or molecule in a gaseous, liquid, or solid form; a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture; and the amounts of energy required to create such systems or change them into a different equilibrium state.
Atoms are the basic units of matter and the defining structure of elements. We count the number of atoms by the total number of elements present in the compound. In this case, we have 1 atom of Si and 2 atoms of oxygen which would have 3 total number of atoms.
Answer:
3.72 mol Hg
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>
- Reading a Periodic Table
- Using Dimensional Analysis
- Density = Mass over Volume
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
D = 13.6 g/mL
54.8 mL Hg
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
Molar Mass of Hg - 200.59 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Find</u>
13.6 g/mL = x g / 54.8 mL
x = 745.28 g Hg
<u>Step 4: Convert</u>
<u />
= 3.71544 mol Hg
<u>Step 5: Check</u>

3.71544 mol Hg ≈ 3.72 mol Hg
The given solution of Mn²⁺ is 0.60 mg/mL.
Hence mass of Mn²⁺ in 5 mL of solution = 0.60 mg/mL x 5 mL = 3 mg
Molar mass of Mn = 54.9 g/mol
Hence, moles of Mn²⁺ = 3 x 10⁻³ g / 54.9 g/mol = 5.46 x 10⁻⁵ mol
The balanced equation for the reaction is,
2Mn²⁺ + 5KIO₄ + 3H₂O → 2MnO₄⁻ + 5KIO₃ + 6H⁺
The stoichiometric ratio between Mn²⁺ and KIO₄ is 2 : 5
Hence, moles of KIO₄ reacted = 5.46 x 10⁻⁵ mol x (5 / 2)
= 13.65 x 10⁻⁵ mol
Molar mass of KIO₄ = 230 g/mol
Hence needed mass of KIO₄ = 13.65 x 10⁻⁵ mol x 230 g/mol
= 0.031395 g
= 31.395 mg
≈ 31.4 mg
