How many excess electrons must be added to an isolated spherical conductor 41.0 cmcm in diameter to produce an electric field of

magnitude 1250 N/CN/C just outside the surface?

Answer:

3.65 x 10¹⁰ electrons

Explanation:

we'll apply the following equation for electric field of a point charge on a spherical conductor

E = k \frac{q}{r^{2} }

where E is the electric field

k is a constant of the value 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

r is the radius of the spherical conductor

q is the total charge in the sphere

Given diameter d =41.0cm, radius r = 20.5cm = 0.205m (convert cm to m)

Electrical field E = 1250 N/C

we are asked to determine how many excess electrons must be added to the surface of the sphere to produce this electric field

E = k \frac{q}{r^{2} }

q = <u>E x r²</u>

        k

q =  <u>1250 N/C x 0.205m</u>²

       8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

q =   5.84 x 10⁻⁹ C

this is the total charge in the sphere

To determine the number of electrons, we can divide the charge q by the charge on an electron e (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C)

n = \frac{q}{e}

n = <u>5.84 x 10⁻⁹ C </u>

       1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C

n = 3.65 x 10¹⁰ electrons

Therefore, to apply an electric field of magnitude 1250 N/C, the isolated spherical conductor must contain 3.65 x 10¹⁰ electrons

How many moles of sodium atoms do you have if you have 5.60 ~
Papessa [141]

Answer:

0.93 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Na atom = ?

Number of atoms = 5.60× 10²³

Solution:

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance. The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

5.60× 10²³ atoms ×  1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.93 mol

Vitamin C contains the elements C, H, and O. It is known to contain 40.9% C and 4.58% H by mass. The molar mass of vitamin C has
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

C₆H₈O₆

Explanation:

First off, the<u> percent of oxygen by mass</u> of vitamin C is:

  • 100 - (40.9+4.58) = 54.52 %

<em>Assume we have one mol of vitamin C</em>. Then we would have <em>180 grams</em>, of which:

  • 180 * 40.9/100 = 73.62 grams are of Carbon
  • 180 * 4.58/100 = 8.224 grams are of Hydrogen
  • 180 * 54.52/100 = 98.136 grams are of Oxygen

Now we <u>convert each of those masses to moles</u>, using the <em>elements' respective atomic mass</em>:

  • C ⇒ 73.62 g ÷ 12 g/mol = 6.135 mol C ≅ 6 mol C
  • H ⇒ 8.224 g ÷ 1 g/mol = 8.224 mol H ≅ 8 mol H
  • O ⇒ 98.136 g ÷ 16 g/mol = 6.134 mol O ≅ 6 mol O

So the molecular formula for vitamin C is C₆H₈O₆
