How do you figure out the number of electrons, neutrons, and protons of an element by only being given the mass?

Irina18 [472]

Get a periodic table of elements. ...Find your element on the periodic table. ...Locate the element's atomic number. ...Determine the number of electrons. ...Look for the atomic mass of the element. ...Subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.

If you have 0.50 mol of ca, how many atoms are present?

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer is: there are 3.011·10²³ atoms of calcium.

n(Ca) = 0.50 mol; amount of substance(calcium).
Na = 6.022·10²³ 1/mol; Avogadro's constant or number.
N(Ca) = n(Ca) · Na.
N(Ca) = 0.50 mol · 6.022·10²³ 1/mol.
N(Ca) = 3.011·10²³; number of calcium atoms.
The mole is an SI unit which measures the number of particles in substance. One mole is equal to 6.022·10²³ atoms.

Gallium is produced by the electrolysis of a solution made by dissolving gallium oxide in concentrated NaOH ( aq ) . Calculate t

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Approximately $6.30\times 10^{-3}\;\rm mol$ .

Explanation:

The gallium here is likely to be produced from a $\rm NaGaO_2\, (aq)$ solution using electrolysis. However, the problem did not provide a chemical equation for that process. How many electrons will it take to produce one mole of gallium?

Note the Roman Numeral " $\mathtt{(III)}$ " next to $\rm Ga$ . This numeral indicates that the oxidation state of the gallium in this solution is equal to $+3$ . In other words, each gallium atom is three electrons short from being neutral. It would take three electrons to reduce one of these atoms to its neutral, metallic state in the form of $\rm Ga\, (s)$ .

As a result, it would take three moles of electrons to deposit one mole of gallium atoms from this gallium $\mathtt{(III)}$ solution.

How many electrons are supplied? Start by finding the charge on all the electrons in the unit coulomb. Make sure all values are in their standard units.

$t = \rm 80.0\; min = 80.0\; min \times 60\;s \cdot min^{-1} = 4800\; s$ .

$Q = I \cdot t = \rm 0.380 \; A \times 4800 \; s = 1.824\times 10^3\; C$ .

Calculate the number of electrons in moles using the Faraday's constant. This constant gives the size of the charge (in coulombs) on each mole of electrons.

$\begin{aligned} n(\text{electrons}) &= \frac{Q}{F} \cr &= \rm \dfrac{1.824\times 10^3\; C}{96485.332\; C \cdot mol^{-1}}\cr &\approx \rm 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol \end{aligned}$ .

It takes three moles of electrons to deposit one mole of gallium atoms $\rm Ga\, (s)$ . As a result, $\rm 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol$ of electrons would deposit $\displaystyle \rm \frac{1}{3}\times 1.89\times 10^{-2}\; mol \approx 6.30\times 10^{-3}\; mol$ of gallium atoms $\rm Ga\, (s)$ .
