<u>Answer:</u> It determines the mass number of the atom.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nucleons are the subatomic particles that are present in nucleus of an atom. The particles which are present in the nucleus of an atom are protons and neutrons.

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons. It is represented as A.

A = Number of neutrons + Number of protons

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom. It is represented as Z.

Z = Number of protons = Number of electrons

From the above information, we conclude that the number of nucleons determines the mass number of an atom.

The number of neutrons in an atom is the number of particles present in its nucleus.
The atomic number is the number of protons whereas the mass number is the number of protons and number of neutrons together
This implies that the number of neutrons is the atom's mass number

(1 point) Hydrogen fluoride (HF) has a lower molecular weight compared to hydrogen chloride (HCl), yet its boiling temperature i
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The correct option is: D. Two types of secondary (or intermolecular) bonding are present between hydrogen fluoride molecules, whereas only one type of secondary bonding is present between hydrogen chloride molecules

Explanation:

Boiling point of a chemical substance depends on the molecular mass and the intermolecular forces, which are the interactive forces present between chemical species

1. The <u>molecular mass of hydrogen fluoride (HF) is less than hydrogen chloride (HCl). </u>

2. But the <u>intermolecular forces present between the HF molecules are stronger </u>than the intermolecular forces present between the HCl molecules.

This is because hydrogen fluoride exhibits two types of intermolecular forces: strong hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions. Whereas, hydrogen chloride exhibits only one type of intermolecular force i.e. dipole-dipole interactions.

<u>Therefore, as a net result, the boiling point of HF is higher than the boiling point of HCl.</u>

For each solution, determine the p-values for each ion indicated. A solution that is 0.493 M in NaCl and 0.314 M in NH 4 Cl .
miss Akunina [59]

Complete Question:

Ions to calculate the p-values: Na⁺, Cl⁻, and NH₄⁺

Answer:

pNa = 0.307

pCl = 0.093

pNH₄ = 0.503

Explanation:

The p-value is calculated by the antilog of the concentration of the substance of interest. For example, pH = -log[H⁺]. Thus, first, let's find the ions concentration.

Both substances are salts that solubilize completely, thus, by the solution reactions:

NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻

NH₄Cl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻

So, for both reactions the stoichiometry is 1:1:1 and the concentration of the ions is equal to the concentration of the salts.

[Na⁺] = 0.493 M

[Cl⁻] = 0.493 + 0.314 = 0.807 M

[NH₄⁺] = 0.314 M

The p-values are:

pNa = -log[Na⁺] = -log(0.493) = 0.307

pCl = -log[Cl⁻] = -log(0.807) = 0.093

pNH₄ = -log[NH₄⁺] = -log(0.314) = 0.503
