<span>The answer is: more protons than neutrons The stability of the nucleus is based on the ratio of neutrons and protons present in the nucleus. if the number of protons is equal to the number neutrons then the nucleus is stable but in case the number of protons is more than the number neutrons or the other way round the nucleus to gain stability starts interconversion of neutron to proton or electron or decreases proton numbers. In case of nucleus containing high energy, the nucleus releases it. Such nuclei which release energy to gain stability are called radioactive nuclei and the phenomenon is called radioactivity.</span>

A 3.452 g sample containing an unknown amount of a Ce(IV) salt is dissolved in 250.0-mL of 1 M H2SO4. A 25.00 mL aliquot is anal
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

1,812 wt%

Explanation:

The reactions for this titration are:

2Ce⁴⁺ + 3I⁻ → 2Ce³⁺ + I₃⁻

I₃⁻ + 2S₂O₃⁻ → 3I⁻ + S₄O₆²⁻

The moles in the end point of S₂O₃⁻ are:

0,01302L×0,03428M Na₂S₂O₃ = 4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of S₂O₃⁻. As 2 moles of S₂O₃⁻ react with 1 mole of I₃⁻, the moles of I₃⁻ are:

4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of S₂O₃⁻×\frac{1molI_{3}^-}{2molS_{2}O_{3}^-} = 2,2315x10⁻⁴ moles of I₃⁻

As 2 moles of Ce⁴⁺ produce 1 mole of I₃⁻, the moles of Ce⁴⁺ are:

2,2315x10⁻⁴ moles of I₃⁻×\frac{2molCe^{4+}}{1molI_{3}^-} = 4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of Ce(IV). These moles are:

4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of Ce(IV)×\frac{140,116g}{1mol} = <em>0,0625 g of Ce(IV)</em>

As the sample has a 3,452g, the weight percent is:

0,0625g of Ce(IV) / 3,452g × 100 = <em>1,812 wt%</em>

I hope it helps!

A sample of an unknown compound is vaporized at 150.°C . The gas produced has a volume of 960.mL at a pressure of 1.00atm , and
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

34.02 g.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the gas behaves ideally, we can use the following equation to compute the moles at the specified conditions:

PV=nRT\\\\n=\frac{1.00atm*0.960L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*(150+273)K} =0.0277mol\\\\

Now, since the molar mass of a compound is computed by dividing the mass over mass, we obtain the following molar mass:

MM=\frac{0.941g}{0.0277mol} \\\\MM=34.02g/mol

So probably, the gas may be H₂S.

Best regards!

In the following equation:
Luda [366]

Answer:

FeCl₃

Explanation:

                 4FeCl₃  +   3O₂     => 2Fe₂O₃+ 6Cl₂

Given =>  7moles     9moles

A simple way to determine which reagent is the limiting reactant is to convert all given data to moles then divide by the respective coefficients of the balanced equation. The smaller value will be the limiting reactant.

                 4FeCl₃     +   3O₂     => 2Fe₂O₃+ 6Cl₂

Given =>  7/4 = 1.75*     9/3 = 3

*Smaller value => FeCl₃ is limiting reactant.  

NOTE: However, when working problems, one must use original mole values given.
