First, calculate the molar masses by looking up the atomic weights of all involved elements.
Atomic weight manganese = 54.938044
Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999
Atomic weight aluminium = 26.981539
Molar mass MnO2 = 54.938044 + 2 * 15.999 = 86.936044 g/mol
Now determine the number of moles of MnO2 we have
30.0 g / 86.936044 g/mol = 0.345081265 mol
Looking at the balanced equation
3MnO2+4Al→3Mn+2Al2O3
it's obvious that for every 3 moles of MnO2, it takes 4 moles of Al. So
0.345081265 mol / 3 * 4 = 0.460108353 mol
So we need 0.460108353 moles of Al to perform the reaction. Now multiply by the atomic weight of aluminum.
0.460108353 mol * 26.981539 g/mol = 12.41443146 g
Finally, round to 3 significant figures, giving 12.4 g</span>
The strength of an Arrhenius base determines percentage of ionization of base and the number of OH⁻ ions formed.
Strong base completely ionize in water and gives a lot of hydroxide ions (OH⁻), for example sodium
hydroxide: NaOH(aq) → Na⁺(aq)
+ OH⁻(aq).
Weak base partially ionize in water and gives a few hydroxide ions (OH⁻), for example ammonia: NH₃ + H₂O(l) ⇄ NH₄⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Answer:
11 electrons
Explanation:
The atomic number of sodium is 11. This tells us that sodium has 11 protons and because it is neutral it has 11 electrons. The mass number of an element tells us the number of protons AND neutrons in an atom (the two particles that have a measurable mass).
Answer: option (1) an electron.
Justification:
1) The plum pudding model of the atom conceived by the scientist J.J. Thompson, described the atom as a solid sphere positively charged with the electrons (particles negatively charged) embedded.
2) The next model of the atom, developed by the scientist Ernest Rutherford, depicted the atom a mostly empty space with a small dense positively charged nucleous and the electrons surrounding it.
3) Then, Niels Bhor came out with the model of electrons in fixed orbits around the nucleous, just like the planets orbit the Sun. So, the path followed by the electrons were orbits.
4) The quantum model of the atom did not place the electrons in fixed orbits around the nucleous but in regions around the nucleous. Those regions were named orbitals. And they are regions were it is most probable to find the electron, since it is not possible to tell the exact position of an electron.
As per this model, the electron has a wave function associated. The scientist Schrodinger developed the wave equation which predicts the location of the electron as a probability.
The orbitals are those regions were it is most likely to find the electron. Those regions are thought as clouds of electrons.
