Neutrons don’t carry an electrical charge, meaning that adding or subtracting them from the nucleus will not change the electrical charge of the nucleus of an atom. But, adding/removing neutrons changes the mass of the nucleus. This is how isotopes are formed.
Answer:
Explanation:
- For the balanced reaction:
<em>4Fe(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Fe₂O₃(s).</em>
It is clear that 4 mol of Fe react with 3 mol of O₂ to produce 2 mol of Fe₂O₃.
- Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 35.8 grams of Fe metal:
no. of moles of Fe = mass/molar mass = (35.8 g)/(55.845 g/mol) = 0.64 mol.
- Now, we can find the no. of moles of O₂ is needed to react with the proposed amount of Fe:
<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>
4 mol of Fe is needed to react with → 3 mol of O₂, from stichiometry.
0.64 mol of Fe is needed to react with → ??? mol of O₂.
∴ The no. of moles of O₂ needed = (3 mol)(0.64 mol)/(4 mol) = 0.48 mol.
- Finally, we can get the volume of oxygen using the information:
<em>It is known that 1 mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L at standard P and T (STP).</em>
<em></em>
<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>
1 mol of O₂ occupies → 22.4 L, at STP conditions.
0.48 mol of O₂ occupies → ??? L.
∴ The no. of liters of O₂ = (0.48 mol)(22.4 L)/(1 mol) = 10.752 L.
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

From the balanced chemical equation,
1 mole of propane forms ------ 3 mol. of
gas.
The molar mass of propane is 44.1 g/mol.
One mole of any gas at STP occupies --- 22.4 L.
Hence, 44 g of propane forms (3x22.4 L=) 67.2 L of CO2 gas at STP.
Answer:
Thus, 67.2 L of CO2 is formed at STP.
Answer:
electrons
Explanation:
By particles im assuming you mean subatomic. The particle with the most energy in this case would be electrons.
1) 100s of millions of years ago Trees and plants fall into swamps
2) Layers of rotting plant matter builds up underwater
3) Over millions of years the weight of layers heat the plant matter and turn into Peat
4) Over millions of years more pressure and heat turns Peat into coal
