How do you calculate the number of moles in CO2

Chemistry
1 answer:
gogolik [260]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The number of molecules in a mole (known as Avogadro's constant) is defined such that the mass of one mole of a substance, expressed in grams, is equal to the mean molecular mass of the substance. The molecular mass of CO2 = 12+2x16 = 44, so the mass of a mole of CO2 is approximalty 44 grams

Identify the neutral element represented by this excited-state electron configuration, then write the ground-state electron conf
sineoko [7]

Answer:

1s² 2s² 2p³

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Excited state configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p² 3s¹

Unknown:

Ground state configuration = ?

Element symbol = ?

Solution:

Let us start by understanding what a ground state configuration entails:

A ground state configuration shows the lowest allowed energy levels of an atom. The excited state denotes when electrons have moved to higher energy levels away from their ground state.

The superscript in the configuration depicts the number of electrons in each of the sublevels.

We can use this number to identify the atom we are dealing with:

 Total number of electrons = 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 7 electrons

The element with 7 electrons on the periodic table is Nitrogen.

Now, the ground state configuration:

In writing the electronic configuration of an atom, certain rules must be complied with.

  • Aufbau's principle states that the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies. The order of filling is:

        1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s etc

To fill the s-orbital = 2 electrons

                p-orbital = 6 electrons

The outermost shell electrons are usually the ones excited.

  Now, the 3s¹ shell is an excited one taking 1 electron from the second energy level;

 The ground state configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p³

1. In general, the nucleus of a small atom is stable. Therefore, over very short distances, such as those in a small nucleus,
postnew [5]
<h3>1. <u>Answer;</u></h3>

a. the strong nuclear force is much greater than the electric force.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>For an atom to be stable it means it has enough amount of binding energy to hold its nucleus together permanently. </u></em>
  • Therefore, <em><u>an unstable atom lacks enough amount of binding energy to hold its nucleus permanently and thus undergoes decay to achieve stability. Unstable atoms are therefore referred to being radioactive.</u></em>
  • Small atoms are stable; <u>this is because they have equal number of protons and neutrons and thus the protons and neutrons fill up energy levels while maximizing the strong force binding the nucleus together. </u>

<h3>9.<u> Answer;</u></h3>

b. change into a different element altogether.

Uranium-238 undergoes alpha decay. Therefore, uranium-238 will  <em><u>change into a different element altogether</u></em>.

<h3><u> Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Unstable atoms undergo radioactive decay in order to achieve stability of their nucleus.
  • <em><u>Uranium-238 is an example of such atom, which may undergo decay to achieve stability.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Alpha decay is one of the types of decays,</u></em> others being beta decay and gamma decay. <em><u>In alpha decay the radioactive isotope undergoes decay such that its mass number is decreased by four and its atomic number is decreased by two.</u></em>
  • Therefore, <em><u>Uranium-238 undergoes alpha decay to form a different element whose mass number is 234 and atomic number is 90, known as thorium-234. </u></em>
