<span><em>Answer:</em>
A strontium-90 atom that has a lost two electrons has <u>38</u> protons, <u>52</u> neutrons, and <u>36</u> electrons.

<em>Explanation:
</em>Atomic number<em> of </em>Strontium (Sr) is 38. 
<em>Atomic number = number of protons 
</em>Hence, Strontium has 38 protons.

If the element is in neutral state,
                number of protons = number of electrons. 
Then, neutral Strontium atom should have 38 electrons. 
But the question says Sr has lost 2 electrons. Hence, number of electrons should be 38 - 2 = 36.

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.

The given mass number is 90. Hence, number of neutrons should be 90 - 38 = 52.</span>

1) How many moles are there in 4.0 grams of FeF3?
Alex

Answer: 0.035 moles FeF3 or 3.5x10-² moles FeF3

Explanation: 1 mole of FeF3 is equal to its molar mass ( 113g FeF3)

4.0g FeF3 x 1 mole FeF3 / 113 g FeF3 = 0.035 moles of FeF3

How do you solve stoichiometry problems
nataly862011 [7]
Ok so the way I do it is as simple as possible.
Firstly look at the reactants and products ( there can be one reactant and one product or more ) you will usually be given the moles of the reactant or products, if you are given grams you can convert into moles by this convertion ( grams/R.M.M ) where R.M.M is the relative atomic mass of your substance ( the mass number of all of the elements in your substance).

Ok when you have moles now look at the ratio between the products and reactants. Usually you will won't know the moles of one substance therefore you will be asked to find moles or mass of that substance.

For example:

When 16 grams of oxygen and 1 gram of hydrogen gas react to produce water. Find the number of grams of water being produced.

O2 + 2H2 -> 2H2O
16g      2g          xg

Here we're told the mass of the reactants. In stoichiometry we need to work with moles therefore you need to calculate moles of the reactants.
Firstly find the R.M.M of each reactant.
R.M.M of O2 is 16+16=32 since it's diatomic we add atomic masses of two oxygen atoms.
R.M.M of H2 is 1+1=2, it's also diatomic. (Diatomic two atoms of the same element are joined together). (Ignore the number 2 in front of H2, this number shows us the ratio relationship between reactans or products, i.e when we balance an equation.)

Ok so now find moles:

We have 16 grams of O2
16/R.M.M
16/32 = 0.5 moles

We have 2 grams of H2
1/R.M.M
2/2 = 1 mole
Now back to the equation.

O2 + 2H2 -> 2H2O
0.5 moles 1mole xmoles                  (it's xmoles because we don't know                                                               molarity of water that's what we have                                                           find firstly in order to find grams.)
Now look at the ratio between any reactant and product i.e you can choose which reactant to compare to the product, it doesn't make a different ( I will do two or you can do two at the same time)

1st method:
Look at the ratio between O2 and H2O from the reaction above we see the ratio is 1:2 therefore for every 0.5 moles of O2 you get 1 mole of H2O.
1:2
0.5 : x
0.5*2 = 1

2nd method;
Look at the ratio betweem H2 and H2O from the reaction above we see the ratio is 2:2 or 1:1. We have 1 mole of H2 there we must have 1 mole of H2O. We see this is true as both methods give us 1 mole of H2O.

3rd method ( combined):
Look at the ratio between O2, H2 and H2O.
We see that the ratio is 1:2:2
So we have 0.5:1:x
If we multiply 0.5 *2 it equals 1 mole
If we multiply 1*1 we get 1 moles.
Any method is correct and it's up to you to find a comfortable way.
We're not finished in the question we are asked for the mass of water.
So just multiply the number of moles (1mole) by R.M.M of H2O.
1 * R.M.M
R.M.M of H2O = 1+1+16=18
1*18= 18 grams.
And you're finished.

I am sorry if this is so long I want you to understand as much as possible.
In stoichiometry you can also be asked about the empirical formula of a substance. I can show you how do it. If you have any question just tell me.
Hope this helps :).

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

1.Magnetosphere

2.Liquid Outer core

3.Atmosphere

4.Lightening

5.Biosphere

6.Blue

7.Dolphins

8.Hydrosphere

9.Ice Caps

10.Lithosphere

11.Latitude

12.Longitude

Explanation:

The invisible field that protect us from solar radiation is called Magnetosphere.

This protective field is created by movement between solid inner core and earth's Liquid outer core.

The layer of gases is called atmosphere.

In addition to wind , rain , lightening is observed on stormy night.

Because of water earth looks Blue.

Dolphins are just one of the animals that calls the hydrosphere, its home.

Ice caps in the north and south poles.

Rocky layer of solid earth is part of Lithosphere.

Look for the latitude first ,horizontal line ...

Answer asap with at least 3 or more sentences!
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

no.

Explanation:

The reason this has

never happened is due to the source of magnetic fields:  moving electric

charges.  When electric charges (e.g. electrons) move in circles, they

produce a magnetic field.  In a piece of iron, it is very easy to line up

these circles, getting all the little magnets to work together as one big

magnet.

For each of these circles, one side is the north pole and one side is the

south pole.  Since each circle has two sides, each circle has a north and a

south pole.  Even the smallest possible magnets (spinning electrons) have a

north and a south pole.
