What is the role of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom?

1 answer:

4 0

Neutrons keep the Protons "in check", meaning Protons hold a very strong repulsive positive charge. The Neutrons counteract the repulsive force within a small space to keep the Nucleus stable.

I hope this helps! :)

At 25 °c, what is the hydroxide ion concentration, [oh–], in an aqueous solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of [h ] = 3.0

chubhunter [2.5K]

As,

Water has a pkw=14

so it can be represented as,

[H+] [OH-] = 1*10^-14

If [H+] = 3*10^-5M

[OH-] = (1*10^-14) / ( 3*10^-5)

[OH-] = 3.3*10^-9 M

Typical "hard" water contains about 2.0 x 10–3 mol of Ca2+ per liter. Calculate the maximum concentration of fluoride ion that c

malfutka [58]

Answer:

$[F^-]_{max}=4x10{-3}\frac{molF^-}{L}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the described situation, we infer that calcium reacts with fluoride ions to yield insoluble calcium fluoride as shown below:

$Ca^{+2}(aq)+2F^-(aq)\rightleftharpoons CaF_2(s)$

Which is typically an equilibrium reaction, since calcium fluoride is able to come back to the ions. In such a way, since the maximum amount is computed via stoichiometry, we can see a 1:2 mole ratio between the ions, therefore, the required maximum amount of fluoride ions in the "hard" water (assuming no other ions) turns out:

$[F^-]_{max}=2.0x10^{-3}\frac{molCa^{2+}}{L}*\frac{2molF^-}{1molCa^{2+}} \\$

$[F^-]_{max}=4x10{-3}\frac{molF^-}{L}$

Best regards.

Identify the double displacement reaction. 3Pb 2h 3PO 4 ⟶ 3H 2 Pb 3(PO 4) 2 2NO 2 ⟶ 2O 2 N 2 2NaBr Ca(OH) 2 ⟶ CaBr 2 2NaOH 2NH 3

IRISSAK [1]

Reaction 3 is the double displacement reaction.

Double displacement reaction occurs when the negatively and the positively charged ions of the compounds interchange their position when the new compound in the product is formed.

<h3>Which is a double displacement reaction?</h3>

In the <u>first reaction</u>, the element lead (Pb) is not an ion and no exchange of the cations or the anions occurs hence it is not a double displacement reaction.

In the <u>second reaction</u>, one compound is getting split into two new compounds and is a decomposition reaction.

In the <u>third reaction</u>, $\rm Br^{-}$ in $\rm 2NaBr$ and $\rm (OH)_{2}$ in $\rm Ca(OH)_{2}$ are anions and cations and exchanges their places to produce two new compounds $\rm CaBr_{2} + 2NaOH.$

In the <u>fourth reaction</u>, a single compound is generated as the result of the combination reaction and hence, it is not the double displacement reaction.

Therefore, $\rm 2NaBr + Ca(OH)_{2} \rightarrow CaBr_{2} + 2NaOH$ is the double displacement reaction.
