They are held in the atom by the positive charge of the nucleus. ... An atom that gains or loses an electron becomes an ion. If it gains a negative electron, it becomes a negative ion. If it loses an electron it becomes a positive ion

A 232-lb fullback runs the 40-yd dash at a speed of 19.8 ± 0.1 mi/h.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

(a)  7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b)  1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

Explanation:

(a)  The de Broglie wavelength is given by the expression:

λ = h/p = h/mv

where h is plancks constant, p is momentum which is equal to mass times velocity.

We have all the data required to calculate the wavelength, but first we will have to convert the velocity to m/s, and the mass to kilograms to work in metric system.

v = 19.8 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/s ) x ( 1 h / 3600 s ) = 8.85 m/s

m = 232 lb x ( 0.454 kg/ lb ) = 105.33 kg

λ = h/ mv = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / ( 105.33 kg x 8.85 m/s ) = 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b) For this part we have to use the uncertainty principle associated with wave-matter:

ΔpΔx > = h/4π

mΔvΔx > = h/4π

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv )

Again to utilize this equation we will have to convert the uncertainty in velocity to m/s for unit consistency.

Δv = 0.1 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/mi ) x ( 1 h/ 3600 s )  

     = 0.045 m/s

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv ) = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / (4π x 105.33 kg x 0.045 m/s )

     = 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

This calculation shows us why we should not be talking of wavelengths associatiated with everyday macroscopic objects for we are obtaining an uncertainty of 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m for the position of the fullback.

Balance the following chemical equation by providing the correct coefficients fe+h2so4 fe(so4)3 + h2
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

2Fe + 3H2SO4 + Fe2(SO4)3+ 3H2

Explanation:

1. Fe (SO4) 3 is an incorrectly written formula because iron is trivalent as we can see by this three ahead of SO4. SO4 is divalent always.

2. since (SO4) is 3, this three shows us that there must be 3 in the reactants as well.

so now there is 3H2SO4

3. Since we have added 3 to one hydrogen we must add another. So now it's 3H2

4. and finally iron. In Fe2 (SO4) 3 we see this 2 in front of Fe which means it goes 2Fe.

The mass of an atom of element x is equivalent to the total mass of 7 hydrogen atoms
Bond [772]

Answer: I'm not sure what your question is but i'll answer as best as I can.

Explanation:

Since X is equal to 7 H and we know that H is equal to 1.008, we can just do 7x1.008 = 7.056 g. I hope i helped and please clarify more in the future.
