Answer:

A. 0.295 mole

B. 0.055 mole

C.0.144 mole

D. 0.03 mole

Explanation:

To find the amount in moles, we simply use a mathematical relation that connects mass, atomic mass and number of moles.

Number of moles = mass/atomic mass

A. Atomic mass of Argon is 40

n = 11.8/40 = 0.295 mole

B. Atomic mass of zinc is 65

n = 3.55/65 = 0.055 mole

C. Atomic mass of Tantalum is 181

n = 26.1/181 = 0.144 mole

D. Atomic mass of lithium is 7

n = 0.211/7 = 0.03 mole

If you have a block of plastic and a block of copper that are the same mass and are placed in the sun for 10 minutes. What is th
LuckyWell [14K]

INFORMATION:

Is given that:

- if you have a block of plastic and a block of copper that are the same mass and are placed in the sun for 10 minutes.

And after the 10 minutes copper has a higher temperature.

We must determine the reason.

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:

To determine it, we need to know the concept of specific heat

If the block of copper has a higher temperature after 10 minutes, that means copper needs less heat to raise its temperature.

So, plastic has a higher specific heat than metal, so it takes more energy to heat plastic than copper. As a result, plastic would heat up more slowly.

ANSWER:

The explanation for the copper having a higher temperature after 10 minutes in the sun, is that plastic has a higher specific heat than metal, so it takes more energy to heat plastic than copper. As a result, plastic would heat up more slowly. Since the copper has a lower specific heat, it will be heat quickly.

What is the coefficient of H2O when the following equation is properly balanced with the smallest set of whole numbers? ________
LiRa [457]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

What is the coefficient of H_2O when the following equation is properly balanced with the smallest set of whole numbers? PCl_3(l)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3PO_3(aq)+HCl(aq)

Answer: The coefficient of H_2O is 3

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

PCl_3(l)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3PO_3(aq)+3HCl(aq)

The coefficient of H_2O is 3

The atoms of Group 7A elements gain electrons when they form ions.<br><br> True<br> False
artcher [175]
Answer: True.

Explanation.

The group 7A is actually named group 17.

That group is the halogens: F, Cl, Br, I, At, and Ts (Ts is one of the last elements discovered).

Those elements have 7 valence electrons (notice that it is the same number as the second digit in 17).

The atoms with 7 valence electrons will "easily" gain one electron to get the configuration of the next noble gas (8 valence electrons). That is why these elements gain electrons to form ions.

When atoms gain electrons form anions (negative ions). For example: F(-), Cl(-), Br(-), I(-).
