Answer;

12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms and 11 oxygen atoms.

Explanation:

Using a balanced chemical equation we can identify the number of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms in sugar.

CxHyOn + 12O₂ → 11 H₂O + 12CO₂

When an equation is completely balanced, then the number of each atom of an element is equal on the reactant side and the product side.

Therefore;

For carbon; x = 12

For Hydrogen; y = (11×2) = 22

For Oxygen; n + (12×2) = 11 + (12×2)

= n + 24 = 11 + 24

n = 11

Therefore the sugar has, 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms and 11 oxygen atoms.

Thus the balanced equation would be;

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + 12O₂ → 11 H₂O + 12CO₂

In your own words, describe two conditions that are necessary for an eclipse to occur

Rzqust [24]

1. the Moon must be in line with the Earth and Sun - New Moon for a solar eclipse and Full Moon for a lunar eclipse.2. the Moon must be at one of its nodes. Most of the time the Moon at New or Full passes above or below the Sun because its orbit is tilted relative to the ecliptic. An eclipse can occur only when it is at a node, in other words crossing the ecliptic.

What is the Ka of a weak acid (HA) if the initial concentration of weak acid is 4.5 x 10-4 M and the pH is 6.87? (pick one)

rewona [7]

Answer:

Ka = $4.04 \times 10^{-11}$

Explanation:

Initial concentration of weak acid = $4.5 \times 10^{-4}\ M$

pH = 6.87

$pH = -log[H^+]$

$[H^+]=10^{-pH}$

$[H^+]=10^{-6.87}=1.35 \times 10^{-7}\ M$

HA dissociated as:

$HA \leftrightharpoons H^+ + A^{-}$

(0.00045 - x) x x

[HA] at equilibrium = (0.00045 - x) M

x = $1.35 \times 10^{-7}\ M$

$Ka = \frac{[H^+][A^{-}]}{[HA]}$

$Ka = \frac{(1.35 \times 10^{-7})^2}{0.00045 - 0.000000135}$

0.000000135 <<< 0.00045

$Therefore, Ka = \frac{(1.35 \times 10^{-7})^2}{0.00045 } = 4.04 \times 10^{-11}$

It is likely the neutral atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons; while the negatively charged atom has 7 or more electrons.

The mass of an atom, commonly known as the atomic mass is determined by the number of protons and neutrons as electrons have a very low mass.

This means two atoms can have the same number of protons and neutrons, but a different number of electrons, which would make the atom be charged negatively or positively.

Based on this, if there are two atoms, each with 6 protons but one of these is negatively charged it is because the second atom has 1 or more extra.

Neutral atom:

This atom has 6 protons and an unknown number of neutrons located in the nucleus.
This atom has 6 electrons that orbit the nucleus.
The first energetic level will include 2 electrons while the second energetic level will include the 4 remaining electrons.

Negatively-charged atom:

This atom has 6 protons and an unknown number of neutrons located in the nucleus.
This atom has 7 or even more electrons that orbit the nucleus.
The first energetic level will include 2 electrons while the second energetic level will include up to 8 electrons.
