Kaylis [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

22

Explanation:

calcium has 20 proteins

and given the mass number is 42.

mass number = protons + neutrons

42= 20+ n

n= 42-20

n= 22

[HELP PLEASE]How is electronegativity related to covalent bonding and molecular polarity?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The larger the value of the electronegativity, the greater the atom's strength to attract a bonding pair of electrons. ... Electronegativities give information about what will happen to the bonding pair of electrons when two atoms bond. A bond in which the electron pair is equally shared is called a nonpolar covalent bond.

What is the molecular formula of a compound that has a molecular mass of 54 and the empirical formula is C2H3
iren [92.7K]
To find the molecular formula from the empirical formula, you need to find a multiple (x) that will give you the molar mass of the compound which in the question is 54 g/mol.

If C₂H₃ is the empirical formula
 molar mass of empirical formula = (12 × 2) + (1 × 3) g/mol
                                                     =  27 g/mol
let x = multiple
let molecular formula = C₂ₓ H₃ₓ

            multiple = molecular mass ÷ empirical mass
                         =  54 g/mol ÷  27 g/mol
                         =  2


If molecular formula = C₂ₓ H₃ₓ

then molecular formula = C₂₍₂₎H₃₍₂₎

                                      = <span>C₄H</span>₆

Consider the balanced reaction: 4Ga(s) + 3O2(g)⟶ 2Ga2O3(s)
Paha777 [63]

First we need to find the number of moles that 43.9g of gallium metal is. We can do this by finding the molar weight of gallium and cross-multiplying to cancel out units:


\frac{1mole}{69.723g}*\frac{43.9g}{1}=0.63mol_{Ga}


So we are dealing with 0.63 moles of gallium metal.


We can take from the balanced equation that 4 moles of gallium metal will react completely with 3 moles of oxygen gas. We can take this ratio and make a proportion to find the amount of oxygen gas, in moles, that will react completely with 0.63 moles of gallium metal:


\frac{4moles_{Ga}}{3moles_{O_{2}}} =\frac{0.63moles_{Ga}}{xmoles_{O_{2}}}


Cross multiply and solve for x:


4x=1.89


x=0.47moles_{O{2}}


So now we know that 0.47 moles of oxygen gas will react with 43.9g of gallium metal.
