This problem requires that you know nomenclature, to identify the formula of the compond from its name, and the way how to determine the formula mass once you know formula.

1) Nomenclature: Chromate

Chromate is an ion (anion) from the chromic acid.

Chromic acid is formed from Chromic oxyde with the atomic number 6.

Then Cr + O2 -> Cr2O6 = CrO3

CrO3 + H2O -> H2CrO4

H2CrO4 = 2H(+) + CrO4 (2-) <---- this is the ion chromate

Now you have to join the chromate ion with the sodium ion => Na2 (CrO4)

2) Now you can calculate the molar mass of the formula Na2(CrO4).

You must only muliply every subscript times the atomic mass of the element:

Na2 => 2 * 23 g/mol = 46 g/mol

Cr => 52 g/mol

O4 => 4 * 16g/mol = 64 g/mol

Formula mass = 46 g/mol + 52 g/mol + 64 g/mol = 162 g/mol

I used the numbers with less significant figures thant the problem required but the answer is evident. Also, g / mol = a.m.u = atomic mass unit.

Answer: 161.97 a.m.u

In one kind of nuclear reaction, two nuclei fuse, or join together, to form a larger nucleus. This kind of reaction happens only
Vladimir79 [104]
High pressures are necessary to create such reaction so that the particles will be able to overcome electrostatic repulsion. The particles that make up a particular atom are covered by shells of energy that react to different impulses like pressure. When particles are exposed to extreme environmental pressure it has the tendency to split its particles and undergo nuclear fusion successfully.

A gas of unknown identity diffuses at a rate of 155 mL/s in a diffusion apparatus in which carbon dioxide diffuses at the rate o
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

19.07 g mol^-1

Explanation:

The computation of the molecular mass of the unknown gas is shown below:

As we know that

\frac{Diffusion\ rate\ of unknown\ gas }{CO_{2}\ diffusion\ rate} = \frac{\sqrt{CO_{2\ molar\ mass}} }{\sqrt{Unknown\ gas\ molercular\ mass } }

where,

Diffusion rate of unknown gas = 155 mL/s

CO_2 diffusion rate = 102 mL/s

CO_2 molar mass = 44 g mol^-1

Unknown gas molercualr mass = M_unknown

Now placing these values to the above formula

\frac{155mL/s}{102mL/s} = \frac{\sqrt{44 g mol^{-1}} }{\sqrt{M_{unknown}} } \\\\ 1.519 = \frac{\sqrt{44 g mol^{-1}} }{\sqrt{M_{unknown}} } \\\\ {\sqrt{M_{unknown}} } = \frac{\sqrt{44 g mol^{-1}}}{1.519} \\\\ {\sqrt{M_{unknown}} } = \frac{44 g mol^{-1}}{(1.519)^{2}}

After solving this, the molecular mass of the unknown gas is

= 19.07 g mol^-1

Volgvan

Answer:

<u>True</u>

Explanation:

|ndeed,  Psychologist Abraham Maslow's sought to describe hierarchy in which the average (or most) humans place their needs. In other words, he believes we as humans have basic needs which we long to satisfy.

On the ranking or hierarchy, according to Maslow the need humans satisfy first is their physiological need. Here's the full hierarchy:

Physiological Needs

↓

Safety Needs

↓

Love/Belonging Needs

↓

Esteem Needs
