The orbital radius of Venus is 0.72 AU. What is this distance in kilometers? (One AU is about 150 million kilometers.)

1 answer:

6 0

<span>The answer is D) 108 million kilometers. To solve this problem, you must perform a simple unit conversion calculation. 1 AU = 150,000,000 km is the conversion factor. Take the radius of Venus, .72 AU, and multiply it by 150,000,000 km/1 AU. You flip the conversion factor so that the units of the original distance in the numerator cancel the units in the denominator of the conversion factor. completing the calculation gives you 108,000,000 km</span>

forsale [732]

The given question is incomplete . The complete question is :

In ionic bonding, during the transfer of electrons between two neutrally charged atoms, one electron moves from one atom to another. What are the new relative charges between the two atoms?

a. The giving atom and receiving atom are both negatively charged

b. The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

c. The giving and receiving atom are both positively charged

d. The giving atom is now negatively charged and the receiving atom is now positively charged.

Answer: The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are formed by transference of electrons between metals and non metals. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Thus when one electron moves from one atom to another, the metal acquires a positive charge and the non metal acquires negative charge.

For example: $NaCl$ is formed by transfer of one electron from sodium to chlorine , thus forming $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$

How many atoms of hydrogen are found in the compound, NH4C2H302?

Mariulka [41]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

7 hydrogen atoms

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

N<em><u>H4</u></em>C2<em><u>H3</u></em>02

In this problem we see the hydrogen atom twice, along with the numbers 4 and 3 next to them. (as shown above in bold & underlined)

So, in order to find how many there are in all you add both hydrogen atoms together-

H4+H3= H7

therefore, there are 7 hydrogen atoms in all

Consider the following balanced reaction. How many grams of water are required to form 75.9 g of HNO3? Assume that there is exce

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

10.85 g of water

Explanation:

First we write the balanced chemical equation

$3NO_{2} +H_{2}O -->2HNO_{3} +NO$

Then we calculate the number of moles of nitric acid produced

n(HNO3) = $\frac{mass}{molar mass} =\frac{75.9g}{63.02g/mol}=1.2044 mol$

According to the balanced equation, water needed in moles is always half the number of moles of HNO3 produced. So since we will produce 1.2044 mol of HNO3, we will need 0.6022 mol of water. Now to calculate what mass that is:

mass(water)=number of moles*molar mass=0.6022mol*18.02g/mol=10.85g
