Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.
For example, given atom has mass number as 15 and its atomic number is 7.
Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.
Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons
15 = 7 + no. of neutrons
no. of neutrons = 15 - 7
= 8
Thus, we can conclude that the given atom contains 8 neutrons in the nucleus.
Answer: 3.72 M
Explanation:
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,
k = rate constant = 
t = age of sample = 15.0 minutes
a = let initial amount of the reactant = 10.0 M
a - x = amount left after decay process = ?




The concentration of
in a solution after 15.0 minutes have passed is 3.72 M
Answer:
The physical properties of a solution are different from those of the pure solvent. ... Colligative properties are those physical properties of solutions of nonvolatile solutes that depend only on the number of particles present in a given amount of solution, not on the nature of those particles.
In an acidic solution, the concentration of H+ is greater than the concentration of OH-. The pH will be less than 7.
In a basic solution, the concentration of OH- is greater than the concentration of H+. The pH will be greater than 7.
In a neutral solution, the concentration of H+ ions to OH-ions will be equal, and will therefore have a pH of 7. (This is due to water autoionization, which we usually ignore because it is small in other circumstances.)
