Answer:
D
Explanation:
Oxygen is the 8th element in the periodic table. This means that oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons. In order to get the number of neutrons you take the atomic weight in this case 15.9999~16 and you subtract it by the number of protons (16-8).
Answer:
I would say A, Gravity can help erosion to occur.
Explanation:
While B,C,D do help cause erosion, that isn't the only way erosion can occur.
Answer:
Percent yield: 78.2%
Explanation:
Based on the reaction:
4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃
<em>4 moles of Al produce 2 moles of Al₂O₃</em>
<em />
To find percent yield we need to find theoretical yield (Assuming a yield of 100%) and using:
(Actual yield (6.8g) / Theoretical yield) × 100
Moles of 4.6g of Al (Molar mass: 26.98g/mol) are:
4.6g Al × (1mol / 26.98g) = 0.1705 moles of Al.
As 4 moles of Al produce 2 moles of Al₂O₃, theoretical moles of Al₂O₃ obtained from 0.1705 moles of Al are:
0.17505 moles Al × (2 moles Al₂O₃ / 4 moles Al) = <em>0.0852 moles of Al₂O₃</em>,
In grams (Molar mass Al₂O₃ = 101.96g/mol):
0.0852 moles of Al₂O₃ × (101.96g / mol) =
<h3>8.7g of Al₂O₃ can be produced (Theoretical yield)</h3>
Thus, Percent yield is:
(6.8g / 8.7g) × 100 =
<h3>
78.2% </h3>
Answer: X3+
Explanation:
Every atom aim to achieve stability by receiving electrons or giving their valence electrons in order to have a complete outermost shell of 2 (duplet) or 8 (octet structure).
In this case, the atom X will easily give off its three valence electrons to another atom(s), thereby forming a trivalent positive ion (X3+) with a stable duplet or octet structure (i.e an outermost shell with 2 or 8 electrons).
X --> X3+ + 3e-
Thus, due to the give away of three electrons (3e-), the atom X becomes X3+.
