Characterize the size of an atom.

1 answer:

6 0

Atoms are the smallest known substance to man, the building blocks of everything, the atoms size usually depends on the electrons, the electrons are what really takes up space.

And my source ( Google ) says :

Because electrons are what take up space in atoms, the result is that the size of the biggest filled orbital determines the size of the atom or ion. Sizes of orbitals depend on the quantum numbers (n = 1, n = 3, etc.) and also on the effective nuclear charge.

Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!!

A 0.539 g sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to the reaction M(s)+H2SO4(aq)⟶MSO4(aq)+H2(g) A v

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The molar mass of the metal is 54.9 g/mol.

Explanation:

When we work with gases collected over water, the total pressure (atmospheric pressure) is equal to the sum of the vapor pressure of water and the pressure of the gas.

Patm = Pwater + PH₂

PH₂ = Patm - Pwater = 1.0079 bar - 0.03167 bar = 0.9762 bar

The pressure of H₂ is:

$0.9762bar.\frac{1atm}{1.013bar} =0.9637atm$

The absolute temperature is:

K = °C + 273 = 25°C + 273 = 298 K

We can calculate the moles of H₂ using the ideal gas equation.

$P.V=n.R.T\\n=\frac{P.V}{R.T} =\frac{0.9637atm \times 0.249L }{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K)\times298K} =9.81 \times 10^{-3} mol$

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

M(s) + H₂SO₄(aq) ⟶ MSO₄(aq) + H₂(g)

The molar ratio of M:H₂ is 1:1. So, 9.81 × 10⁻³ moles of M reacted. The molar mass of the metal is:

$\frac{0.539g}{9.81 \times 10^{-3} mol} =54.9g/mol$

What happens to a glass of sugar solution when sugar is added to it?

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The molarity of the solution increases.

Explanation:

Molarity is the measure of the concentration of the solute in the solution. In this case, the solvent is the sugar solution and the solute is the sugar.

If sugar is ADDED to the already sugary solution, then there would be more sugar. Therefore, the sugar (solute) would increase in number.

This means that the answer is the third choice: The molarity of the solution increases.

The answer would not be the first or second choice because there isn't anything in the question that implies water. It just says sugar solution.

The answer is not the last choice because the sugar concentration does not decrease after you have added more sugar to it. It increases.
