How many grams of sodium are in 0.820 moles of na2so4?

2 answers:

5 0

the molar mass of a compound is the sum of the products of the atomic masses by the number of atoms of the element.
molar mass of Na₂SO₄ is - 142 g/mol.
1 mol of Na₂SO₄ has a mass of 142 g.
In 1 mol of Na₂SO₄ the mass of Na is 23 g/mol x 2 = 46 g.

Mass of Na in 1 mol of Na₂SO₄ is - 46 g

mass of Na in 0.820 mol of Na₂SO₄ - 46 g /1 mol x 0.820 mol = 37.72 g.
mass of Na is 37.72 g

Explanation:

Number of moles are defined as given mass divided by molar mass of the compound or substance.

Mathematically, Number of moles = $\frac{mass given}{molar mass}$

Since, it is given that number of moles is 0.820 and molar mass of $Na_{2}SO_{4}$ is 142 g/mol.

Therefore, calculate the mass as follows.

Number of moles = $\frac{mass given}{molar mass}$

0.820 moles = $\frac{mass given}{142 g/mol}$

mass given = 116.44 g

Thus, we can conclude that there are 116.44 grams of sodium in 0.820 moles of $Na_{2}SO_{4}$ .

The shielding of electrons gives rise to an effective nuclear charge, Zeff, which explains why boron is larger than oxygen. Esti

Vesna [10]

Zeff = Z - S

Here, Z is the number of protons in the nucleus, that is, atomic number, and S is the number of nonvalence electrons.

For boron, the electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 5, S = 2

Zeff = 5-2 = +3

For O, electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 8, S = 2

Zeff = 8-2 = +6

Hence, the correct answer is second option, that is, +3 and +6, the Zeff of boron is smaller in comparison to O, thus, boron exhibits a bigger size than O.

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a. Convergent boundary

b. Transform boundary

c. Divergent boundary

Explanation:

Convergent boundary are boundary where tectonic plates collide with each other. This kind of boundary might involve a collision between continental and oceanic plates, continental and continental plates and oceanic and oceanic plates. Generally, convergent boundary are regions for mountainous structures . Example of mountain formed through convergence are mountain Everest and Himalayas .

Transform boundary are boundary where tectonic plates move past each other . This kind of boundary is responsible for the creation of Extensive Fault like the San Andrea Fault.

Divergent boundary are boundary where tectonic plates move away from each other. The diverging movements brings about oceanic ridges. The mid oceanic ridges is where magma rises to the surface to form a new crust. The up welling of this magma causes further separation of this plates.

The picture above illustrate convergent, divergent and transform boundary.
