The number 4 in the 4/2He indicates the atomic mass number of helium.

Answer: Option 3

<u>Explanation: </u>

The elements present in periodic table generally represented as X_{Z}^{A}. Here X will be the element in the periodic table, A is the atomic mass number of the element X and Z is the atomic number of the element X.

So, the number 4 is the atomic mass number of He and He-4 is the stable isotope of helium which can also be termed as alpha particle.

               Mass number = number of protons + neutrons count.

Thus the number 4 denotes the Helium's atomic mass number.

What is the molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of sodium carbonate-10-water is dissolved in water and made up to 250.0 cm
disa [49]

We have to know the molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is dissolved in water and made up to 250 cm³ solution.

The molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of sodium carbonate-10-water (Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O)  is dissolved in water and made up to 250.0 cm^3 solutionis: (A) 0.08 mol dm⁻³

The molarit y of solution means the number of moles of solute present in one litre of solution. Here solute is Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O and solvent is water. Volume of solution is 250 cm³.

Molar mass of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is 286 grams which means mass of one mole of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is 286 grams.

5.71 grams of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is equal to \frac{5.71}{286}= 0.0199 moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O. So, 0.0199 moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O present in 250 cm³ volume of solution.

Hence, number of moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O present in one litre (equal to 1000 cm³) of solution is \frac{0.0199 X 1000}{250} = 0.0796 moles. So, the molarity of the solution is 0.0796 mol/dm³ ≅ 0.08 mol/dm³

How is it possible for there to be more than one kind of atom of the same element?
tiny-mole [99]

They are called isotopes.

Isotopes have the same number of electrons and protons in their unionized state. They differ in the number of neutrons. The first and simplest example is hydrogen.


The most common hydrogen has

1 proton

1 electron and

0 neutrons


It has 2 cousins

1 proton

1 electron

1 neutron

And

1 proton

1 electron

2 neutrons.


Most elements have some differences in the number of neutrons present in their nuclei. Cesium and Xenon have the most number of isotopes. Each has 36. You wonder how the atoms are held together.

Determine the vapor pressure (atm) of rubbing alcohol (isopropanol) at 20.0 °C. The normal boiling point of isopropanol is 82.3
jeyben [28]
Here we apply the Clausius-Clapeyron equation:
ln(P₁/P₂) = ΔH/R x (1/T₂ - 1/T₁)

The normal vapor pressure is 4.24 kPa (P₁)
The boiling point at this pressure is 293 K (P₂)
The heat of vaporization is 39.9 kJ/mol (ΔH)
We need to find the vapor pressure (P₂) at the given temperature 355.3 K (T₂)

ln(4.24/P₂) = 39.9/0.008314 x (1/355.3 - 1/293)
P₂ = 101.2 kPa
