The charge of a proton and the charge of all electron has (4) the same magnitude and the opposite sign

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Inside the atom consists of a nucleus containing 3 basic particles namely protons and neutrons, while electrons circulate the nucleus on a particular path so that electrons are not attracted to the nucleus.

The charge of these three atomic particles is based on the Rutherford experiment. Rutherford experimented with firing alpha rays on a thin gold plate. From this experiment it was found that:

1. Most alpha rays are passed through the gold plate, so it is concluded that most of the space in the atom has empty space

2. A small number of alpha particles deflected shows there are positively charged particles inside the atom

(at this time these particles are called protons located in the atomic nucleus)

From here comes the Rutherford atomic model which states that atoms consist of positively charged particles (protons) and negatively charged electrons around the nucleus.

The charge of 1 proton is equal to a charge of 1 electron, but the sign is different.

The proton is positively charged (+1), the electron is negatively charged (-1). and neutrons not charged (neutral)

Charge of 1 electron = e = -1.66.10⁻¹⁹ coulomb

Whereas the neutron charge = 0

Answer: option (4) the same magnitude and the opposite sign.

Justification:

1) Electrons are negative particles thar are around the nucleus of the atom (in regions called orbitals).


2) Protons are positive particles that are inside the nuclus of the atom.


3) The nucleus of the atom has the same number of protons as electrons are in the orbitals of the atom.


4) The atoms are neutral (neither positive nor negative) because there are the same number of electrons and protons and their charge are of the same magnitude but different sign: (+) + (-) = 0: positive + negative = neutral.

A mixture of c2h2 and ch4 has a total mass of 230.9 g. when this mixture reacts completely with excess oxygen, the co2 and h2o p

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Interesting problem. Thanks for posting.

C2H2 + (3/2)02 ====> H2O + 2CO2
CH4 + 2O2 =====> 2H2O + CO2

The molar mass of C2H2 = 2*12 + 2*1 = 26
The molar mass of CH4 = 1*12 + 4*1 = 16

The number of moles of C2H2 = x
The number of moles of CH4 = y
26x + 16y = 230.9 grams

For water we get (from the C2H2). Water has a molar mass of 2*1 + 16 = 18

x*18 See the balanced equation to see what it is the same number of moles as C2H2
From the methane we get
y*18
2*y* 18. Again see the balanced equation to see where that 2 came from.
18x + 36y is the total amount of water.

Now for the CO2. CO2 has a molar mass of 12 + 2*16 = 44
From C2H2 we get 2*44*x = 88x grams of CO2
From CH4 we get 1*y*44 grams of CO2
88x + 44y for CO2

Now we total to get the grand total of water and CO2
18x + 44y + 88x + 44y = 972.7 grams total.
106x + 88y = 972.7

Two equations, two unknowns, we should be able to solve this problem
26x + 16y = 230.9
106x + 88y = 972.7

I'm not going to go through the math unless you request me to do so.
x = 8.03 moles
y = 1.38 moles

The initial amount of C2H2 was 8.03 * 26 = 208.78
The initial amount of CH4 was 16*1.38 = 22.08
The total (as a check is 230.86 which is pretty close to the given amount.
So Methane's mass in the initial givens was 22.08 grams.

What is the rate of chemical reaction?

babymother [125]

Explanation:

The rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time. Reaction rates can vary dramatically.

At-57 °C and 1 atm, carbon dioxide is in which phase? View Available Hint(s) Phase diagrams for water (Figure 1)and carbon dioxi

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Gas

Increase the pressure

Explanation:

Let's refer to the attached phase diagram for CO₂ (not to scale).

At -57 °C and 1 atm, carbon dioxide is in which phase?

If we look at the intersection between -57°C and 1 atm, we can see that CO₂ is in the gas phase.

At 10°C and 2 atm carbon dioxide is in the gas phase. From these conditions, how could the gaseous CO₂ be converted into liquid CO₂?

Since at 10°C and 2 atm carbon dioxide is below the triple point, the only way to convert it into liquid is by increasing the pressure (moving up in the vertical direction).
