A natural atom possesses the atomic number of 13 and a atomic mass of 27. Three electrons are lost. From what region of the atom

are they lost?
Chemistry
1 answer:
Anarel [89]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The electrons are lost from the valence shell (outermost electron shell) of the atom.

Explanation:

This is able to be inferred not only because valence electrons being lost first is a trend but also because the atom in question has actually 3 valence electrons (13-2-8 = 3).

A given mass of air has a volume of 6.00 L at 101 kPa. At constant temperature, the pressure is decreased to 25.0 kPa. Calculate
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

24.24 L

Explanation:

Boyle’s law, also called Mariotte’s law, a relation concerning the compression and expansion of a gas at constant temperature.

This empirical relation, formulated by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662, states that the pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas varies inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature; i.e., in equation form, pv = k, a constant.

Real gases obey Boyle’s law at sufficiently low pressures, although the product pv generally decreases slightly at higher pressures, where the gas begins to depart from ideal behaviour.

As, PV = k

P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂

Given P₁ = 101 KPa

V₁ = 6 L

P₂ = 25 kPa

So, V₂ = P₁ V₁ /P₂ = 101 *6/25 = 24.24 L

Three isotopes of argon occur in nature – 36 18Ar, 38 18Ar, 40 18Ar. Calculate the average atomic mass of argon to two decimal p
likoan [24]

Answer: 3) 39.96 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope Ar- 36 = 35.97 amu

% abundance of isotope Ar- 36= 0.337% = \frac{0.337}{100}=3.37\times 10^{-3}

Mass of isotope Ar- 38 = 37.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 0.063 % = \frac{0.063}{100}=6.3\times 10^{-4}

Mass of isotope Ar- 40 = 39.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 99.600 % = \frac{99.600}{100}=0.996

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

A=\sum[(35.97\times 3.37\times 10^{-3})+(37.96\times 6.3\times 10^{-4})+(39.96\times 0.996)]

A=39.96amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of argon is 39.96 amu

In the synthesis reaction, the white powder produced is magnesium oxide (mgo, mm = 40.3 g/mol). how many moles of magnesium oxid
gulaghasi [49]
Number of moles = mass of product / molecular mass
=mass of product (MgO) / 40.3

Since the mass of MgO is not given in the question, the correct answer choice cannot be given.  However, proceeding witht eh above formula will enable you to find the correct number of moles given the mass of MgO.

A 350.0 ml sample of gas has a temperature of 22.7 C and a pressure of 0.914 atm. What temperature would be needed for the same
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply gas law formula

P₁ V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

.914  x 350 / ( 273 + 22.7 ) = 1 x 220 / T₂

1.0818 = 220 / T₂

T₂ = 203.36 K

= - 69.64 ⁰ C
