An atom has a mass number of 24 and 13 neutrons. What is the atomic number of this atom? Express

Chemistry
1 answer:
Temka [501]3 years ago
8 0
A=mass number   (protons + neutrons)
Z=atomic number  (protons)
N=number of neutrons.

A=Z+N

Data:
A=24
N=13

Therefore:
24=Z+13
Z=24-13=11

Answer: The atomic number of this atom is 11. (The element is sodium)

In going across a row of the periodic table, protons and electrons are added and ionization energy generally increases. In going
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionization energy:

It is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the electron from isolated gaseous atom to make the ion.

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell.

When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.  Where as,

When we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

You wish to construct a buffer of pH=7.0. Which of the following weak acids (w/ corresponding conjugate base) would you select?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8

Explanation:

In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below

we Know that

pKa= -log(Ka)

therefore

A) pKa of  HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)

=1.9208

B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644

C)  pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45

D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)=  9.3979

If we consider the  Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution

The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.

So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.

Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.

Imagine the reaction A + B ⇌ C + D is at equilibrium, where the forward and reverse reactions are at equal rates. What would hap
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Rate of forward reaction will increase.

Explanation:

Effect of change in reaction condition on equilibrium is explained by Le Chatelier's principle. According to this principle,

If an equilibrium condition of a dynamic reversible reaction is disturbed by changing concentration, temperature, pressure, volume, etc,  then reaction will move will in a direction which counteract the change.

In the given reaction,

A + B ⇌ C + D

If concentration of A is increase, then reaction will move in a direction which decreases the concentration of A to reestablish the equilibrium.

As concentration A decreases in forward direction, therefore, rate of forward reaction will increase.
