Answer:

The empirical formula is = NiO

Explanation:

Given that:- Mass of nickel = 2.241 g

Mass of the oxide formed = 2.852 g

Mass of the oxygen reacted = Mass of the oxide formed - Mass of nickel  = 2.852 g - 2.241 g = 0.611 g

Molar mass of nickel  = 58.6934 g/mol

Moles of nickel = \frac{2.241}{58.6934}\ mol = 0.03818 mol

Molar mass of oxygen  = 15.999 g/mol

Moles of nickel = \frac{0.611}{15.999}\ mol = 0.03818 mol

Taking the simplest ratio for Ni and O as:

0.03818 : 0.03818 = 1 : 1

<u>The empirical formula is = NiO </u>

Verizon [17]
The answer is iii) decreasing the pressure of the system. When the pressure is decreased, the equilibrium will shift to the right because it has 12 moles of gas which is greater than the number of moles of gas on the left side, which is 6 moles. Equilibrium shifting to the side that exerts greater pressure is favored to offset the decrease in pressure.

What is the affect of neutrons on atoms
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

It's better to explain it.

Explanation:

Neutrons do not affect the electron configuration, but the sum of atomic number and the number of neutrons, or neutron number, is the mass of the nucleus. You know that neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. Under normal conditions, protons and neutrons stick together in the nucleus. During radioactive decay, they may be knocked out of there. Neutron numbers are able to change the mass of atoms, because they weigh about as much as a proton and electron together. if your asking What is the role of a neutron in an atom? then, Neutrons are very important in providing stability for an atom. Some atoms don't "need" neutrons - The hydrogen atom does not have any neutrons. However, as the atomic number ( # of protons ) increases, the number of neutrons increases as well.

Protons don't like each other. Naturally, 'positive charges repel', so it wouldn't be possible to have more than one proton in the nucleus. Here's where the neutron comes in.

Hope this helps. :)
