An interplanetary probe returns to Earth with soil samples. The atoms in the sample are sorted by their number of protons. A new

element is discovered! The new element has 120 protons. 20.0% of these new atoms have 120 neutrons, and the remaining 80.0% have 110 neutrons. They decide to call the new element Bolognium, Bo. What AVERAGE atomic mass should the scientists report in amu? Enter your answer below to the nearest WHOLE NUMBER with no units.

Answer is: the average atomic mass is 232.

ω₁ = 20% ÷ 100%.

ω₁ = 0.20.

ω₂ = 80% ÷ 100%.

ω₂ = 0.80.

Ar₁ = 120 (number of protons) + 120 (number of neutrons).

Ar₁ = 240.

Ar₂ = 120 + 110 .

Ar₂ = 230.

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium =  

Ar₁ · ω₁ + Ar₂ · ω₂.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium =  240 · 0.2 + 230 · 0.8.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium = 48 + 184.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium = 232.

Consider the following equilibrium between N2O4 and NO2.[Heat is added to a brown 2 NO2 gas to yield a colorless N2O4 gas]Which
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

a.Low temperature

Explanation

Equation of reaction:

2NO2 <==> N2O4(g) ∆H = +ve

To cause the reaction to become darker brown means to produce more of NO2 gas. That is backward reaction.

Since the reaction is endothermic, decrease in temperature will shift the equilibrium position to the left thereby favouring backward reaction. This is in line with Me Chatelier's principle.

High pressure will rather favour forward reaction (it is not the right option).

Realizar los isomeros geométricos para las siguientes estructuras: 2-hepteno y Ácido 2-butenoico
kramer

Answer:

The cis-trans isomerism (or geometric isomerism ) is a type of stereoisomerism of alkenes and cycloalkanes . A distinction is made between the cis isomer , in which the substituents are on the same side of the double bond or on the same face of the cycloalkane. This is an electronic version in English. [ 1 ]

Their characteristics are:

They both have the same formula.They have different chemical and physical properties.The IUPAC advises against the use of the term geometric isomerism. [ 2 ]
