In nickel-78, there are 28 protons, 28 electrons, and 50 neutrons.

The protons is always the atomic number.
The electron would always be the atomic number when it's a neutral atom. (Different for isotopes)
The neutrons is always the number that makes up the mass with protons. You can figure it out by subtracting atomic mass by protons. (78-28 = 50)

Explanation:

Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number or atomic mass is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, given atom of Ni has atomic number 28.  And, it is known that atomic mass of Ni is 58 g/mol.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

                    Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                         58 = 28 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 58 - 28  

                                               = 30

Also, when an atom is neutral in nature then its number of protons equal to the number of electrons present in it.

Hence, we can conclude that in a neutral atom of Ni there are 28 protons, 30 neutrons and 28 electrons.

Consider the cell pt | h2 (1 atm); h+ (? m) || hg2cl2(s); cl− (1 m) | hg 2 h+ + 2 e − → h2 e 0 = 0.00 v hg2cl2 + 2 e − → 2 hg +
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

1.39

Explanation:

[Hg2Cl2]= 1M

[H^+] = ????

E°cell= 0.35V

E= 0.268 V

Therefore E for the reaction must -0.082 V

n= 2 moles of electrons

From Nernst Equation:

E= E°cell- 0.0592/n log [Red]/[Ox]

0.0268= 0.35- 0.0592/2 log 1/[Ox]^2

-0.082= -0.0296 log 1/[Ox]^2

log 1/[Ox]^2= 0.082/0.0296

log 1/[Ox]^2= 2.77

1/[Ox]^2=Antilog (2.77)

[Ox]^2=1.698×10^-3

[Ox] = 0.0412 M

But pH= -log [H^+]= -log(0.0412)= 1.385

How many grams of CaCl2 are in 250 mL of 2.0 M CaCl2?
Tom [10]
The answer is:  " 56 g CaCl₂ " .
__________________________________________________________

Explanation:
__________________________________________________________
2.0 M CaCl₂  = 2.0 mol CaCl₂ / L  ; 

Since: "M" = "Molarity" (measurement of concentration); 

                  = moles of solute per L {"Liter"} of solution.
__________________________________________________________
Note the exact conversion:  1000 mL = 1 L . 

Given: 250 mL ;   

250 mL = ?  L  ?  ;  


250 mL * (1 L / 1000 L) =  (250/1000) L = 0.25 L . 
___________________________________________________________
 
(2.0 mol CaCl₂ / L ) * (0.25L) = (2.0) * (0.25) mol  = 0.50 mol CaCl₂ ;

We have: 0.50 mol CaCl₂ ;  Convert to "g" (grams):

→ 0.50 mol CaCl₂  .
___________________________________________________________
1 mol CaCl₂ = ? g ?

From the Periodic Table of Elements:

1 mol Ca = 40.08 g

1 mol Cl  =  <span>35.45 g .
</span>
There are 2 atoms of Cl in " CaCl₂ " ;  

→ Note the subscript, "2", in the " Cl₂ " ; 
__________________________________________________________
So, to calculate the molar mass of "CaCl₂" :

40.08 g  +  2(35.45 g) = 

40.08 g  +  70.90 g = 110.98 g ;  round to 4 significant figures; 

                                 → round to 111 g/mol .
__________________________________________________________
So:

→  0.50 mol CaCl₂  = ? g CaCl₂  ? ; 

→  0.50 mol CaCl₂ * (111 g CaCl₂ / mol CaCl₂) ;

                                             = (0.50) * (111 g) CaCl₂ ;

                                             =  55.5 g CaCl₂  ;

                                                → round to 2 significant figures; 

                                                →  56 g CaCl₂ .
___________________________________________________________
The answer is:  " 56 g CaCl₂ " .
