Answer:

1.053×10²⁴ atoms of gold

Explanation:

Hello,

Gold nugget are usually the natural occurring gold and they contain 85% - 90% weight of pure gold.

In this question, we're required to find the number of atoms in 344.75g of a gold nugget.

We can use mole concept relationship between Avogadro's number and molar mass.

1 mole = molar mass

Molar mass of gold = 197 g/mol

1 mole = Avogadro's number = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

Number of mole = mass / molar mass

Mass = number of mole × molar mass

Mass = 1 × 197

Mass = 197g

197g is present in 6.022×10²³ atoms

344.75g will contain x atoms

x = (344.75 × 6.022×10²³) / 197

X = 1.053×10²⁴ atoms

Therefore 344.75g of gold nugget will contain 1.053×10²⁴ atoms of gold

Standard hydrogen electrode acts as both anode and cathode.Explain.​
Vlad [161]

Answer:

A Standard Hydrogen Electrode is an electrode that scientists use for reference on all half-cell potential reactions. The value of the standard electrode potential is zero, which forms the basis one needs to calculate cell potentials using different electrodes or different concentrations. It is important to have this common reference electrode, just as it is important for the International Bureau of Weights and Measures to keep a sealed piece of metal that is used to reference the S.I. Kilogram.

Which two elements have the most similar chemical properties?
Sedbober [7]

atoms are made of 3 types of sub atomic particles- protons, neutrons and electrons

from these 3 particles, electrons are responsible for participating in chemical bonds. therefore chemical properties of elements are based on the number of electrons present.

valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outermost energy shell that are involved in chemical bonds.

atoms with same number of valence electrons are grouped in to columns called groups.

therefore elements of the same group have same number of valence electrons, hence similar chemical properties.

from the options given

only Be and Mg belong to the same group they both belong to group 2 with 2 valence electrons

therefore Be and Mg have similar chemical properties

answer is

1) Be and Mg

When discussing discordant and harmonious sound waves, which statement is false?
notka56 [123]
When discussing discordant and harmonious sound waves, the statement tat is false is : if the original waves combine to form irregular displacement of air, the sound will be discordant. The fact is, irregular displacement of air does not guarantee sound discordance
