In an ion with an unknown charge, the total mass of all the electrons was determined to be 2.19 ✕ 10−26 g, while the total mass

of its protons was 4.34 ✕ 10−23 g. What is the identity and charge of this ion? (Enter your answer in the form X^q±.)

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{Fe$^{{2+}}$}}

Explanation:

1. Number of electrons

\text{Number of electrons} = 2.19 \times 10^{-26}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 electron}}{9.109 \times 10^{-28}\text{ g}} = \text{24 electrons}

2. Number of protons

\text{Number of protons} = 4.34 \times 10^{-23}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 proton}}{1.673 \times 10^{-24}\text{ g}} = \text{26 protons}

3. Identify the ion

An atom with 26 protons is iron, Fe.

A neutral atom of iron would have 26 electrons.

The ion has only 24 electrons, so it has lost two. The ion must have a charge of +2.

\text{The symbol for the ion is $\large \boxed{\textbf{Fe$^{\mathbf{2+}}$}}$}

At which temperature and pressure will a sample of neon gas behave most like an ideal gas?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

At STP, 760mmHg or 1 atm and OK or 273 degrees celcius

Explanation:

The standard temperature and pressure is the temperature and pressure at which we have the molecules of a gas behaving as an ideal gas. At this temperature and pressure, it is expected that the gas exhibits some properties that make it behave like an ideal gas.

This temperature and pressure conform some certain properties on a gas molecule which make us say it is behaving like an ideal gas. Ordinarily at other temperatures and pressures, these properties are not obtainable

Take for instance, one mole of a gas at stp occupies a volume of 22.4L. This particular volume is not obtainable at other temperatures and pressures but at this particular temperature and pressure. One mole of a gas will occupy this said volume no matter its molar mass and constituent elements. This is because at this temperature and pressure, the gas is expected to behave like an ideal gas and thus exhibit the characteristics which are expected of an ideal gas
