Answer:

If an atom were to gain or lose neutrons it becomes an isotope. ... If it gains a neutron it become an isotope called deuterium. Since the atomic mass is the total of the number of protons and neutrons, an isotope would have a different atomic mass, but the same atomic number as the original atom

Answer:

Its mass is lowered, but it is still the same element.

Explanation:

When the atom loses a<em> neutron</em>, it still remains as the same <em>element</em>. The only thing that would change is the <em>mass.</em>

How many grams of fluorine are contained in 8 molecules of boron trifluoride?
Lelu [443]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

             7.57 × 10⁻²² g of F

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Data Given:

                 Number of Molecules  =  8

                 M.Mass of BF₃ =  67.82 g.mol⁻¹

                 Mass of Fluorine atoms  =  ?

Step 1: Calculate Moles of BF₃

           Moles  =  Number of Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹

Putting value,

            Moles  =   8 Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹

            Moles  =  1.33 × 10⁻²³ mol

Step 2: Calculate Mass of BF₃:

                   Moles  =  Mass ÷ M.Mass

Solving for Mass,

                   Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

Putting values,

                   Mass  =  1.33 × 10⁻²³ mol × 67.82 g.mol⁻¹

                   Mass  =  9.0 × 10⁻²² g

Step 3: Calculate Mass of Fluorine Atoms:

As,

                         67.82 g BF₃ contains  =  57 g of F

So,

                    9.0 × 10⁻²² g will contain  =  X g of F

Solving for X,

                       X =  (9.0 × 10⁻²² g × 57 g) ÷ 67.82 g

                        X  =  7.57 × 10⁻²² g of F

2.822 mol of nickel has _________ atoms of nickel.<br><br> (Enter just the number for this one.)
Irina-Kira [14]

Hello!

To find the number of atoms in 2.822 moles of nickel, we need to multiply it by Avogadro's number. Avogadro's number is 6.02 x 10^23 atoms.

2.822 moles x (6.02 x 10^23) ≈ 1.698844 x 10^24

Therefore, there are about 1.70 x 10^24 atoms (according to the number of significant figures) in 2.822 moles of nickel.
