Oxygen has 8 plus-charged protons. The number of minus-charged electrons is

1 answer:

6 0

A single oxygen has atomic number 8 that means the nuclei of all oxygen atoms have eight protons. The number of minus-charged electron is two but the number of electrons is 10. To gain a minus two-charge ion, it must have two more negative electrons than positive charged protons. With this, the ion has 10 electrons, which give it a -2 net charge.

Be sure to answer all parts. Calculate the molality, molarity, and mole fraction of FeCl3 in a 24.0 mass % aqueous solution (d =

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

m= 1.84 m

M= 1.79 M

mole fraction (X) =

Xsolute= 0.032

Xsolvent = 0.967

Explanation:

1. Find the grams of FeCl3 in the solution: when we have a mass % we assume that there is 100 g of solution so 24% means 24 g of FeCl3 in the solution. The rest 76 g are water.

2. For molality we have the formula m= moles of solute / Kg solvent

so first we pass the grams of FeCl3 to moles of FeCl3:

24 g of FeCl3x(1 mol FeCl3/162.2 g FeCl3) = 0.14 moles FeCl3

If we had 76 g of water we convert it to Kg:

76 g water x(1 Kg of water/1000 g of water) = 0.076 Kg of water

now we divide m = 0.14 moles FeCl3/0.076 Kg of water

m= 1.84 m

3. For molarity we have the formula M= moles of solute /L of solution

the moles we already have 0.14 moles FeCl3

the (L) of solution we need to use the density of the solution to find the volume value. For this purpose we have: 100 g of solution and the density d= 1.280 g/mL

The density formula is d = (m) mass/(V) volume if we clear the unknown value that is the volume we have that (V) volume = m/d

so V = 100 g / 1.280 g/mL = 78.12 mL = 0.078 L

We replace the values in the M formula

M= 0.14 moles of FeCl3/0.078 L

M= 1.79 M

3. Finally the mole fraction (x) has the formula

X(solute) = moles of solute /moles of solution

X(solvent) moles of solvent /moles of solution

X(solute) + X(solvent) = 1

we need to find the moles of the solvent and we add the moles of the solute like this we have the moles of the solution:

76 g of water x(1 mol of water /18 g of water) = 4.2 moles of water

moles of solution = 0.14 moles of FeCl3 + 4.2 moles of water = 4.34 moles of solution

X(solute) = 0.14 moles of FeCl3/4.34 moles of solution = 0.032

1 - X(solute) = 1 - 0.032 = 0.967

Can someone please help me with this!!! ( I chose to stop using water bottles )

Answer:

Flushing goldfish down the toliet

Explanation:

This would help the planet because goldfish are a very evasive species that has been harming our natural enviroments lakes and rivers. Ever since people have been flushing them down the toliet including me since I've had over six they have been finding their ways into our ecosytem and damaging nature. You may think that goldfish are a cute and small pet species to keep in a fish tank but the fish can grow in the right conditons up to 16.1 inches long and can top over five pounds in the wild. Unfortunately most goldfish never thrive like this in fish tanks due to nasty inadequate housing and feeding conditions. And most do not live up to their expected life span in the wild of 15 to even thirty years due to their living conditons. Did you know, goldfish will actually jump out of their tank in a final desperate search for better living conditions and enviroment to live in to meet their physiological needs. But lets get back to the problem so don't be to quick to feel sorry for them, when people flush them down the toliet they repopulate somehow in our lakes and rivers. Even through, it is not clear how they got there, which the suspected culprit is the sewer system. They threaten the natural enviroment tho because they are obnivores and they eat a mixtures of plants and animal specimen. You are probrably thinking why is this a problem, well its because goldfish are particullary greedy eaters and will eat, eat, and feast on the natural envrioment they infestated. And the waste they leave on the enviroment will promote the growth of algae which could cause an extent of enviromental damage. Of course goldfish are not impacted by this algae growth for adaptation reasons which shield them. This is not the main problem tho the main problem of this is that female goldfish can produce up to 1000 eggs at a time. And to make things worse unlike other fish species where the parents of the eggs leave the eggs for predaetors and well the elements of nature the goldfish instead guard their nest foriciously from predaetors that eat fish eggs in which effectively shields the populations young from danger. And to just add to the chaos the goldfish sadly have no real natural predaetor in the unitedstates which just causes more problems since they have no one killing them. And did I mention that they could live up to a real possibility of thirty years. And that they are forocious eaters that could eat a variety of types of foods. All of these facts in the end lead to two things first stop flushing your pet goldfish down the toliet and secondly now you know how golfish impact our planet.

Give brainliest please it took me over thirty minutes of thinking!

Which term is de ned as the region in an atom where an electron is most likely to be located?

charle [14.2K]

Orbital
All atoms have the same number of electrons as protons. Negative electrons are attracted to the positive nucleus. This force of attraction keeps electrons constantly moving around the nucleus. The region where an electron is most likely to be found is called an orbital.
Here you go :)

mel-nik [20]

Answer: C. no new substances are formed

In the physical change of matter, there is no new substance that is formed. It is only the appearance of the matter that is being changed and not its chemical composition. Cutting, tearing and grinding are only some of the examples that exhibit physical change.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

John Dalton

Explanation:

John Dalton in 1808 suggested that all matter consists of tiny particles called atoms and that the atoms of a specific element are identical.

He postulated the Dalton's atomic theory which has the following important parts;

All matters consists of indivisible particles called atoms
Atoms of the same element are similar and are different from atoms of other elements.
Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.
Atoms combine in simple whole ratios to form compounds.
