That will make a gold-202 nucleus.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
Refer to a periodic table. The atomic number of mercury Hg is 80.
Step One: Bombard the
with a neutron
. The neutron will add 1 to the mass number 202 of
. However, the atomic number will stay the same.
- New mass number: 202 + 1 = 203.
- Atomic number is still 80.
.
Double check the equation:
- Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 202 + 1 = 203 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
- Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.
Step Two: The
nucleus loses a proton
. Both the mass number 203 and the atomic number will decrease by 1.
- New mass number: 203 - 1 = 202.
- New atomic number: 80 - 1 = 79.
Refer to a periodic table. What's the element with atomic number 79? Gold Au.
.
Double check the equation:
- Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 203 = 202 + 1 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
- Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = 79 + 1 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.
A gold-202 nucleus is formed.
Group 1 elements (usually called alkali metals) are not very electronegative and have small ionization energies due to that. The reason why they are not very electronegative is that they really want to loose their one valence electron so that they can have a noble gas electron configuration (completed octet).
I hope this helps.
<span>C. A completely new substance is formed.</span>
In the equation,
2Al(s) + 3Cl2(g) —> 2AlCl3(s),
the large number "3" in front of Cl2 indicates the the number of moles of Chlorine molecules needed to balance the equation.
Hope this will help you.

The mass of reacted magnesium chloride is 23.75g, percent by mass of solution magnesium chloride is 90.9%.
<h3>What is the relation between mass & moles?</h3>
Relation between the mass and moles of any substance will be represented as:
n = W/M, where
- W = given mass
- M = molar mass
Moles of MgCl₂ = 200g / 95g/mol = 2.1mol
Moles of NaOH = 20g / 0.5mol
Given chemical reaction is:
MgCl₂ + 2NaOH → 2NaCl + Mg(OH)₂
From the stoichiometry of the reaction it is clear that
- 1 mole of MgCl₂ = reacts with 2 moles of NaOH
- 0.5 mole of NaOH = reacts with (1/2)(0.5)=0.25 moles of MgCl₂
Mass of reacted MgCl₂ = (0.25mol)(95g/mol) = 23.75g
Percent by mass of MgCl₂ in the given solution mixture will be calculated as:
- % by mass = (Mass of MgCl₂ / Total mass of mixture) × 100%
- Percent by mass of MgCl₂ = (200/200+20)×100% = 90.0&
In the above reaction we obtain NaCl as a solid, and MgCl₂ is the limiting reagent in it, from which 2 moles of NaCl is produced means
- 0.25 moles of MgCl₂ = produces 0.5 moles of NaCl
Mass of NaCl = (0.5mol)(58.5g/mol) = 29.25g
Hence, mass of reacted MgCl₂ is 23.75g, percent by mass of solution magnesium chloride is 90.9% and mass of the obtained solid is 29.25g.
