Answer:

Mg₃N₂ (magnesium nitride)

Explanation:

M(total) = M(mg) + M (n)

M (n) = M(total) -  M(mg)

        = 0.433g - 0.313g

        = 0.12g

mole (N) =  0.12g / 14.0067 g/mol

              = 0.008567

mole Mg = 0.313g / 24.3050 g/mol

              = 0.012878

Mg = 0.012878 / 0.008567

     = 1.5

N = 0.008567 / 0.008567

   = 1

multiply by 2 to get whole numbers

Mg = 1.5 × 2 = 3

N = 1  × 2 = 2

Mg₃N₂ (magnesium nitride)

Give the nuclear symbol for the isotope of gallium, ga, that contains 40 neutrons per atom. Replace the question marks with the
Cerrena [4.2K]

The nuclear symbol of an element have three parts namely:  

  1. the symbol of an element
  2. mass number of the element
  3. atomic number of the element

The general representation is as:

_{Z}^{A}X

where X is the chemical symbol of the element, A is mass number of the element that is total number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom, and Z is atomic number of the element that is number of protons in the atom.

Element = Gallium, Ga    (given)

Number of neutrons = 40 (given)

Let the nuclear symbol be _{?}^{?}Ga. So, we need to determine the values of "?" in the symbol.

Atomic number of Gallium, Ga = 31

Since, atomic number = Number of protons.

So, number of protons of Gallium, Ga = 31

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Substituting the values:

Mass number = 31+40 = 71

So, the nuclear symbol is _{31}^{71}Ga.
