Chemistry
1 answer:
algol [13]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

83 .

Explanation:

Radioactive elements: It is defined as the atoms which contains unstable nucleus because of the constantly change and imbalance of energy in the nucleus. Radioactivity of an atom is showing by when the nucleus of an atom loose a neutron, it gives an energy and this process is called to be radioactivity.

Isotopes elements containing different number of neutrons and same number of protons. All isotopes are not considered as radioisotopes. All isotopes of an element with an atomic number greater than 83 are radioactive means, they are having unstable nucleus.

16. Formaldhyde has a mole ratio of 1 mole C: 2 moles H: 1 mole O. Its empirical formula is the same as its
Dominik [7]

Answer:

d. 97.60 g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of formaldehyde = 3.25moles

  Ratio:

                 C               H              O

                  1                2               1

Unknown:

Mass of this sample  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a compound is its simplest formula. It is the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms in a given substance.

The molecular formula is the actual formula of the compound.

 Since the molecular and empirical formula are the same here, the formula of the compound is;

                   CH₂O

To find the mass of the formaldehyde, use the expression below;

        Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

             molar mass of CH₂O = 12 + 2(1) + 16  = 30g/mol

      Mass  = 3.25 x 30  = 97.5g

If you could drop 12 atoms of copper onto a beaker containing nitric acid, how many molecules of NO would be produced?
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

B) 8.0 molecules.

Explanation:

  • From the balanced equation: <em>3Cu + 8HNO₃ → 3Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2NO + 4H₂O,</em>

It is clear that 3.0 atoms of Cu react with 8.0 molecules of HNO₃ to produce 3.0 molecules of Cu(NO₃)₂, 2.0 molecules of NO, and 4.0 atoms of H₂O.

<u><em>Note that: </em></u>The no. of atoms and molecules is the same ratio to the no. of moles.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

3.0 atoms of Cu produce → 2.0 molecules of NO, from the balanced equation.

12.0 atoms of Cu produce → <em>??? molecules of NO.</em>

<em>∴ The no. of molecules of NO produced </em>= (2.0 molecules)(12.0 atoms)/(3.0 atoms) = <em>8.0 molecules.</em>
