He valence of selenium depends on which compound it is in. Selenium is very similar to sulfur. It may have a valence of 6; example selenium hexafluoride SeF6, selenium trioxide SeO3 
<span>4; example selenium tetrafluoride SeF4, selenium dioxide SeO2 </span>
<span>2; example selenium difluoride SeF2, selenium dichloride SeCl2 </span>
<span>and -2; example hydrogen selenide H2Se</span>

Answer:

1.22 × 10^22 H atoms

Explanation:

From this question, TNT has the chemical formula: C-H5N306. The number of nitrogen atoms in the TNT substance is said to be 7.30 × 10^21 atoms.

The number of hydrogen atoms in the same TNT substance can be got using mole ratio. Based on the chemical formula, the mole ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen is 5:3 i.e. H5N3.

This means that;

Number of atoms of hydrogen = 5/3 of the number of atoms of nitrogen.

Hence, number of H atoms = 5/3 × 7.30 × 10^21

number of H atoms = (7.30 × 5/3) × 10^21

number of H atoms = (36.5/3) × 10^21

number of H atoms = 12.1666 × 10^21

number of H atoms = 1.2166 × 10^22 atoms.

Approximately, number of H atoms in TNT is 1.22 × 10^22 atoms.

Holly has an unknown substance in a beaker. she wants to determine the relative ph of the unknown substance. she places a piece
AURORKA [14]

Blue litmus paper turns red in the presence of an acid. Therefore, it can be assumed that the substance in the beaker is an acid.

Acids have a pH level of less than 7. Consequently, it can be assumed that the substance has a pH level less than 7.

How many liters of HF can be made from 50.0 g of a 12.0M HF solution
aliina [53]

Answer:

Explanation:

The first thing we calculate are the moles: (50.0 g)/(20.0063 g/mol) =2.5 moles  

Then we use the inverse formula for the molarity: (2.5 mol)/(12.0 M) = 0.208 L

My bad, I pressed the wrong button for answer!

Hydrogen gas (H2) is a promising alternative to fossil fuels. How many molecules are present in 1.0 kg of hydrogen gas
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

3.01×10²⁶ molecules

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of H₂ = 1 Kg

Number of molecules =?

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

1 mole of H₂ = 6.02×10²³ molecules

But 1 mole of H₂ = 2 × 1 = 2 g

Now, we shall determine the number of molecules present in 1 Kg (i.e 1000 g) of H₂ as follow:

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

2 g of H₂ = 6.02×10²³ molecules

Therefore,

1000 g of H₂ = 1000 × 6.02×10²³ / 2

1000 g of H₂ = 3.01×10²⁶ molecules

Thus, the number of molecules present in 1 Kg (i.e 1000 g) of H₂ is 3.01×10²⁶ molecules
