Answer:

  • Option <u><em>d) isotope</em></u>.

Explanation:

All atoms of a same element have equal number of protons (atomic number) but <em>may</em> <em>differ in the number of neutrons.</em>

<em />

The atoms that differ in the number of neutrons are named<em> isotopes</em>.

For example: carbon-12 and carbon-13 are diferent isotopes of the same element, carbon. They have the same number of protons (6, which is the atomic number of carbon). On the other hand, while carbon-12 has 6 neutrons, carbon-13  has 7 neutrons.

As per the other choices:

  • a) <em>anions</em> are ions with negative charges: atoms (or group of atoms) that have gained one or more electrons.
  • b) <em>cations</em> are ions with positive charge: atoms (or group of atoms) that have lost one or more electrons.
  • e) <em>atoms</em> are the individual minimum parts of an element that preserves the properties of such element. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and have, essentially, the same chemical properties.

Which of these events is caused by contact forces?
harkovskaia [24]

Earthquakes along the San Andreas fault in California.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • When the two plates collide with each other, earthquakes occur. The contact between them makes this earthquake possible. The contact forces are responsible for the earthquakes as there is contact between two plates.          
  • The gravitational force is a force that is responsible for elevated tides happening on the east coast or the Jupiter's moons to remain in orbit. But this is not a contact force as there is no contact between them
  • Moreover, Without any contact, the magnetic force is a non-contact as it attracts the pins from a distance.

How many chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine?
erik [133]

Answer:

5*10²⁴ chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine.

Explanation:

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023*10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number represents a quantity without an associated physical dimension, so it is considered a pure number that allows describing a physical characteristic without an explicit dimension or unit of expression. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if 1 mole of the compound contains 6.023 * 10²³ atoms, 8.3 moles of the compound how many atoms does it have?

amount of atoms=\frac{8.3 moles*6.023*10^{23}atoms }{1 mole}

amount of atoms≅ 5*10²⁴ atoms

<u><em>5*10²⁴ chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine.</em></u>

Use the balanced equation given below to solve the following problem; Calculate the volume in liters of CO produced by the react
Elan Coil [88]

Answer: 40.3 L

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}

\text{Moles of} Sb_2O_3=\frac{175g}{291.5g/mol}=0.600moles

Sb_2O_3+3C\rightarrow 2Sb+3CO  

According to stoichiometry :

1 moles of Sb_2O_3 produces = 3 moles of CO

Thus 0.600 moles of Sb_2O_3 will produce=\frac{3}{1}\times 0.600=1.80moles  of CO

Volume of CO=moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=1.80moles\times 22.4L/mol=40.3L

Thus 40.3 L of CO is produced.
