protons and electrons are both always the atomic number which is 9 in this case.

For neutrons you subtract the atomic number (9) from the weight of the atom (18.998) some teachers will want you to round to the nearest whole (19). We do this because the number of protons is the atomic number so if you subtract the protons from the whole weight of the atom you would have the electrons and neutrons left. Since electrons weigh so little we don't have to subtract them. Weighing neutrons and electrons would be like weighing an elephant (neutrons) and then putting one marshmallow on the scale (electron).

What mass of sucrose (C12H22O11) should be combined with 546 g of water to make a solution with an osmotic pressure of 8.80 atm

lesya [120]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of sucrose required is 69.08 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

$\pi=iMRT$

Or,

$\pi=i\times \frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}\times RT$

where,

$\pi$ = osmotic pressure of the solution = 8.80 atm

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

Mass of solute (sucrose) = ?

Molar mass of sucrose = 342.3 g/mol

Volume of solution = 564 mL (Density of water = 1 g/mL)

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = Temperature of the solution = 290 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$8.80atm=1\times \frac{\text{Mass of sucrose}\times 1000}{342.3\times 546}\times 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 290K\\\\\text{Mass of sucrose}=\frac{8.80\times 342.3\times 546}{1\times 1000\times 0.0821\times 290}=69.08g$

Hence, the mass of sucrose required is 69.08 g

Imagine that one tree outside your home looks unhealthy, although all the other trees seem healthy and strong. Describe how you

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Hypothesis---experiments----results----conclusion.

Explanation:

First we make a hypothesis means a statement about why the tree looks unhealthy. In this segment of scientific method we have to test the hypothesis through experimentation. After that we have to take the readings of various parts of the tree and analyze the data to find out the problem. In the next step, we have to made the results on the basis of the data that is obtained. In the last we have to write the conclusion of the analysis and see the hypothesis.

Which of the following elements will gain electrons to form an

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When an atom lose or gain electrons ions are formed.

There are two types of ions. Cation and anion.

Cation:

Cations are formed when atom lose electrons. For example:

X → X⁺ + e⁻

Anion:

It is formed when an atom gain electrons. For example:

X + e⁻ → X⁻

Fluorine is present in group seventeen. It has seven valance electrons. It gain one electron to complete the octet and form anion with charge of -1.

Calcium is alkaline earth metal. It is present in group two it loses two valance electrons and form cation with charge of +2.

Neon is noble gas. It already have complete octet. It can not form ions. To remove the electrons from noble gases very high temperature is required.

Zinc is present in group 12. It usually form cation by losing its two valance electrons but it can also show oxidation state -2.
