How many moles are in 15.5-g SiO2

Chemistry
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

0.26 moles

Explanation:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Mass of SiO2 = 15.5g

Molar mass of SiO2 = 60.08g/mol

Number of moles = 15.5g/60.08g/mol

=0.257

= 0.26 moles

When a mercury-202 nucleus is bombarded with a neutron, a proton is ejected. What element is formed?
Galina-37 [17]

That will make a gold-202 nucleus.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to a periodic table. The atomic number of mercury Hg is 80.

Step One: Bombard the \displaystyle ^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} with a neutron ^{1}_{0}n. The neutron will add 1 to the mass number 202 of ^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}. However, the atomic number will stay the same.

  • New mass number: 202 + 1 = 203.
  • Atomic number is still 80.

^{202}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} + ^{1}_{0}n \to ^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg}.

Double check the equation:

  • Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 202 + 1 = 203 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
  • Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

Step Two: The ^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} nucleus loses a proton ^{1}_{1}p. Both the mass number 203 and the atomic number will decrease by 1.

  • New mass number: 203 - 1 = 202.
  • New atomic number: 80 - 1 = 79.

Refer to a periodic table. What's the element with atomic number 79? Gold Au.

^{203}_{\phantom{2}80}\text{Hg} \to ^{202}_{\phantom{2}79}\text{Au} + ^{1}_{1}p.

Double check the equation:

  • Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 203 = 202 + 1 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
  • Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = 79 + 1 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.

A gold-202 nucleus is formed.

Is a cube of salt being crushed before being stirred into water a physical or chemical change
Olin [163]
By crushing the salt, you are performing a physical change because you aren't altering the chemical makeup of the salt, just the physical form. Hope this helps! :)

Why can you never see the far side of the mood from earth?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: -

C) because the moon rotates once on its axis in the same time that it takes to revolve around the earth

Explanation: -

The moon rotates about it's axis one full time at about the same time as it takes to rotate around the earth.

This leads to only one side of the moon always appearing to Earth, called the near side.

One side of the moon is always not seen from the earth. It is called the far side of the moon.

Thus we can never see the far side of the moon because the moon rotates once on its axis in the same time that it takes to revolve around the earth
