The atomic number for Pb is 82
∴ Pb has 82 protons and 206-82 = 14 protons
The actual mass of Pb nuclei is
=(82 × mass of the proton) + (124 × mass of neutron)
=(82× 1.00728) + (124 × 1.008664) amu
= 207.6713 amu
The mass of lead which is given is 205.9744 amu
∴mass defect is
m = 207.6713 - 205.9744 = 1.6969 amu
=1.6969 × 1.66054 × 10⁻²⁷kg
=2.818 × 10⁻²⁷kg
The binding energy is E = mc²
C is the speed of light in vacuum = 2.9979 × 10⁸m/s
∴ E = 2.532 × 10×⁻¹⁰ J/mol
= 2.532 × 10⁻¹⁰ × 6.023 × 10²³ J/mol 
= 1.53811 × 10¹⁴ J/mol

what are the relative strengths of intermolecular forces compared to the forces between ions in a salt or the forces between met
Sophie [7]
There are two kinds of forces, or attractions, that operate in a molecule—intramolecularand intermolecular. Let's try to understand this difference through the following example.



Figure of towels sewn and Velcroed representing bonds between hydrogen and chlorine atoms

We have six towels—three are purple in color, labeled hydrogen and three are pink in color, labeled chlorine. We are given a sewing needle and black thread to sew one hydrogen towel to one chlorine towel. After sewing, we now have three pairs of towels: hydrogen sewed to chlorine. The next step is to attach these three pairs of towels to each other. For this we use Velcro as shown above.

So, the result of this exercise is that we have six towels attached to each other through thread and Velcro. Now if I ask you to pull this assembly from both ends, what do you think will happen? The Velcro junctions will fall apart while the sewed junctions will stay as is. The attachment created by Velcro is much weaker than the attachment created by the thread that we used to sew the pairs of towels together. A slight force applied to either end of the towels can easily bring apart the Velcro junctions without tearing apart the sewed junctions.

Exactly the same situation exists in molecules. Just imagine the towels to be real atoms, such as hydrogen and chlorine. These two atoms are bound to each other through a polar covalent bond—analogous to the thread. Each hydrogen chloride molecule in turn is bonded to the neighboring hydrogen chloride molecule through a dipole-dipole attraction—analogous to Velcro. We’ll talk about dipole-dipole interactions in detail a bit later. The polar covalent bond is much stronger in strength than the dipole-dipole interaction. The former is termed an intramolecular attraction while the latter is termed an intermolecular attraction.

An aqueous solution is 0.467 m in hcl. what is the molality of the solution if the density is 1.23 g/ml?
Reika [66]
Answer:
molarity = 0.385 moles/kg

Explanation:
Assume that the volume of the aqueous solution given is 1 liter = 1000 ml
Now, density can be calculated using the following rule:
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume = 1.23 * 1000 = 1230 grams
Now, 0.467 m/L * 1L = 0.467 moles of HCl
We will get the mass of the 0.467 moles of HCl as follows:
mass = molar mass * number of moles = (1+35.5)*0.467 = 17.0455 grams
Now, we have the mass of the solution (water + HCl) calculated as 1230 grams and the mass of the HCl calculated as 17.0455 grams. We can use this information to get the mass of water as follows:
mass of water = 1230 - 17.0455 = 1212.9545 grams
Finally, we will get the molarity as follows:
molarity = number of moles of solute / kg of solution
molarity = (0.467) / (1212.9594*10^-3)
molarity = 0.385 mole/kg 

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

23 L

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(K) = T(°C) + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 100 °C

Initial temperature (T₁) = 100 °C + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 373 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 50.5 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 50.5 °C + 273

Final temperature (T₂) = 323.5 K

Finally, we shall determine the initial volume of gas. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 373 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 323.5 K

Final volume (V₂) = 20 L

Initial volume (V₁) =?

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ / 373 = 20 / 323.5

Cross multiply

V₁ × 323.5 = 373 × 20

V₁ × 323.5 = 7460

Divide both side by 323.5

V₁ = 7460 / 323.5

V₁ = 23 L

Thus, the original volume of the gas is 23 L
