Answer:

Neutron = 42

Proton = 34

Electron = 36

Explanation:

The atomic number (also known as the proton number) of an element does not change even if the element gain or loss electrons.

With this understanding,

Se has atomic number(proton number) = 34

From question,

Mass number of Se ion = 76

Charge = - 2

Neutron number = Mass number - proton number

Neutron number = 76 - 34 = 42

Since Se ion has a charge of 2-, it means it has gain electrons

Therefore the electron number = 34 + 2 = 36

A beaker with 1.60×102 mL of an acetic acid buffer with a pH of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop. The total molarity of acid and c

stich3 [128]

Answer:

The pH will change 0.16 ( from 5.00 to 4.84)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

volume of acetic acid buffer = 160 mL

The total molarity of acid and conjugate base in this buffer is 0.100 M

A student adds 7.10 mL of a 0.460 M HCl solution to the beaker.

The pKa of acetic acid is 4.740

pH = 5.00

Step 2: Calculate concentration of acid

Consider x = concentration acid

Consider y = concentration conjugate base

x + y = 0.100

5.00 = 4.740 + log y/x

5.00 - 4.740 = log y/x

0.26 = log y/x

10^0.26 =1.82 = y/x

1.82 x = y

Since x+y = 0.100

x + 1.82 x = 0.100

2.82 x = 0.100

x =0.0355 M = concentration acid

Step 3: Calculate concentration of conjugate base

y = 0.100 - x

0.100 - 0.0355 =0.0645 M= concentration conjugate base

Step 4: Calculate moles of acid

Moles = volume * molarity

moles acid = 0.160 L * 0.0355 M= 0.00568 moles

Step 5: Calculate moles of conjugate base

moles conjugate base = 0.0645 M * 0.160 L=0.01032 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles HCl

moles HCl = 7.10 * 10^-3 L * 0.460 M=0.003266 moles

Step 7: Calculate new moles

A- + H+ = HA

moles conjugate base = 0.01032 - 0.003266 =0.007054 moles

moles acid = 0.00568 + 0.003266=0.008946 moles

Step 8: Calculate the total volume

total volume = 160 + 7.10 = 167.1 mL = 0.1671 L

Step 9: Calculate the concentration of the acid

concentration acid = 0.008946/ 0.1671 =0.0535 M

Step 10: Calculate the concentration of conjugate base

concentration conjugate base = 0.007054/ 0.1671 =0.0422 M

Step 11: Calculate the pH

pH = 4.740 + log 0.0535/ 0.0422=4.84

change pH = 5.00 - 4.84=0.16

The pH will change 0.16

One mole of an ideal gas with a volume of 1.0 L and a pressure of 5.0 atm is allowed to expand isothermally into an evacuated bu

Deffense [45]

Answer:

w= - 1.7173 kJ, q= 1.7173 kJ, q(rev) = 1717.3 J = 1.7173 kJ.

Explanation:

Okay, from the question we are given the information below;

Number of moles, n= 1 mole; initial volume, v(1) = 1.0 litres (L); pressure (p) = 5atm, final volume(v2) = 2.0 Litres(L) ; the workdone, w= not given; the heat, q and q(rev)= not given and the gas was said to expand isothermally.

So, this question is a question from the part of chemistry known as thermodynamics. Therefore, grip yourself we are delving into thermodynamics 'waters' now.

For expansion isothermally; the workdone, w= -nRT ln v2/v1.

Where T= temperature= 25° C = 298 k and R= gas constant.

Therefore; workdone, w = - 1 × 8.314 × 298 × ln(2/1).

Workdone,w= - 1717.32204643. =

- 1717.3 Joules (J).

==> Workdone,w= - 1.7173 kJ.

Then, we are to find q. q can be solved by using the first law of thermodynamics, which by mathematical representation is:

∆U= q + w. Where ∆U= change in internal enegy. Since the question is dealing with isothermal expansion, there is this rule that says for an isothermal expansion ∆U = 0.

Hence, 0 =q + [- 1717.3 Joules (J)].

q=1717.3 J = 1.7173 kJ.

Finally, the q(rev) which is= nRT ln (v2/V1).

q(rev) = 1 × 8.314 × 298 ln (2/1).

q(rev) = 1717.3 J = 1.7173 kJ.

PS: please note the negative signs in the workdone and the positive sign in the q(rev).
