Answer:

Since the vast majority of an atom's mass is found its protons and neutrons, subtracting the number of protons (i.e. the atomic number) from the atomic mass will give you the calculated number of neutrons in the atom. In our example, this is: 14 (atomic mass) – 6 (number of protons) = 8 (number of neutrons).

You are provided with a compound fertilizer, 40-15-10. Calculate the quantity of fertilizer to add to a one hectare field to sup
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is a) 300 Kg b) 225 Kg c) 400 Kg and d) 600 Kg.

Explanation:

Based on the given value, that is. 40-15-10 shows the compositions of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium found in the compound fertilizer in the form of percentage.  

41 percent nitrogen is equal to 40/100 = 0.4, 15 percent phosphorus is equal to 15/100 = 0.15, and 10 percent potassium is equal to 10/100 = 0.1.  

To find the amount of fertilizer, which is needed per hectare to supply the different nutrients per hectare, there is a need to divide the quantity to be supplied by the percentage composition, now the values comes out as:  

a) At 120 Kg per ha, the required nitrogen will be 120/0.4 = 300 Kilogram of fertilizer.  

b) At 90 kg per ha, the required nitrogen will be 90/0.4 = 225 Kilograms of fertilizer.  

c) At 60 kg per ha, the required phosphorus will be 60/0.15 = 400 Kilograms of fertilizer.  

d) At 60 Kg per ha, the required potassium will be 60/0.1 = 600 Kilograms of fertilizer.

Answer:

Explanation:

Similarities.

Both Ionic and covalents bond produce exothermic reactions.

They are both neutral.in Ionic bonds, the two opposite charge will terminate each other and in covalent, the neutral molecules tend to share electrons.

Difference

Ionic bonds have high polarity while covalent have low.

Ionic bonds have no definite shape, covalent have.

Ionic have high melting points, covalent have low.

Io ic have high boiling point, covalents have low.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

option A = S(s) + O₂(g)   →   SO₂ (s)

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

S(s) + O₂(g)   →   SO₂ (s)

when sulfur burned in the presence of oxygen it produce sulfur dioxide. The sulfur dioxide can further react with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide and then react with water to form sulfuric acid.

Uses of sulfur dioxde:

It is used as a solvent and reagent in laboratory.

Sulfur dioxide is used to produce sulfuric acid.

It is used as a disinfectant

It is also used as a reducing agent.

It is used to preserve the dry food.
