Answer: a) chromium-52 :  protons = 24, neutrons = 28

selenium - 80 :  protons = 34, neutrons = 46

molybdenum-98:  protons = 42, neutrons = 56

xenon-132:  protons = 54, neutrons = 78

ytterbium-174 :  protons = 70, neutrons = 104

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

Thus, number of protons = atomic number

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

a) chromium-52 :

Atomic number of Chromium is 24 hence number of protons  = 24

52= 24+ Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 28

b) selenium - 80 :

Atomic number of selenium is 34 hence number of protons  = 34

80 =  34 +  Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 46

c) molybdenum - 98 :

Atomic number of molybdenum is 42 is  hence number of protons  = 42

98 =  42 +  Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 56

d) xenon-132:

Atomic number of xenon is 54 hence number of protons  = 54

132 =  54 +  Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 78

e) ytterbium-174:

Atomic number of ytterbium is 70 and  hence number of protons  = 70

174 = 70 +  Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 104

What happens to the reaction c2h6 + 137 kj c2h4+h2 when the temperature of the reaction is increased?
Softa [21]
Answer is: at higher temperatures reaction will go to the right (forward), more products (C₂H₄ and H₂) will be produce, because this is endothermic reaction (ΔH<span> is positive, </span>energy is consumed) and according Le Chatelier's principle <span>heat is included as a reactant. </span> .

A compound is found to contain 38.65 % carbon, 16.25 % hydrogen, and 45.09 % nitrogen by mass. what is the empirical formula for
iren [92.7K]

The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:

 

C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22

H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25

N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22

 

Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:

 

C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5

N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

 

So the empirical formula is:

CHN
