<span>You can answer this question by getting the atomic number and atomic mass of Oxygen from a periodic table. There you will find that the atomic number is 8, that means, by definition, that it has 8 protons. This is, because atomic number is defined as the number of protons of an element. Given that the atom is neutral, that implies that the atoms have the same number of electrons than protons. So you already know that the oxygen atoms has 8 protons and 8 electrons. The number of neutrons can vary, which is what defines the isotopes. Given that the atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999, that means that most atoms of oxygen has 8 neutrons (8 protons +8 neutrons = 16 atomic mass). But you can not be sure that a specific atom of oxygen has 8 neutrons, nevertheless, given that the other options are discarded (because they do not have 8 protons and 8 electrons), the only correct answer is the option A. 8 protons, 8 electrons, and 8 neutrons.</span>
Absorption occurs when photons from incident light hit atoms and molecules and cause them to vibrate. The more an object's molecules move and vibrate, the hotter it becomes. This heat is then emitted from the object as thermal energy.
KOH? 6.022 x 10^23 atoms of potassium(K) are in one mole of KOH
First. moles is just a label for a number of things. just like a
dozen = 12, a gross = 144, a mole = 6022 with another 20 zeros after the
2
next
moles = mass / molecular weight.
molecular weight = sum of atomic mass from the periodic table
atomic mass MnO2 = atomic mass Mn + 2 x atomic mass O
= 54.94 + 2 x 16 = 86.94 g/mole
so moles MnO2 = 98.0 grams / (86.94 g/mole) = 1.13 moles
notice that I only gave 3 digits? that because of sig figs read the link below if you don't understand....
mw C5H12 = 5 x 12 + 12 x 1 = 72 g/mole
so moles C5H12 = 12.0 g / 72.0 g/mole = 0.167 moles
mw XeF6 = 131.3+ 6 x 19.00 = 245.3
so moles XeF6 = 100 g / 245.3 g/mole = 0.4077 moles
I've also provided a link to a periodic table. if you need atomic weights click on any element and it will give you the
details.
The percentage error is the error of the measured value to the true value. To find he percent error, the equation is as follows:
Percent error = |Measured Value - True Value|/True Value * 100
The || is needed to get the absolute value of the difference. Substituting the values,
Percent error = |(10.085 g/10 mL) - 0.9975 g/mL|/<span>0.9975 g/mL * 100
</span><em>Percent error = 1.1% </em>
