Answer:  a. the number of protons

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an electrically neutral atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

In an atom, when electrons are lost, the atom gains a positive charge and forms cation. In an atom, when electrons are gained, the atom occupies a negative charge and forms anion.

Hence, neutrons and protons affects the mass number and electrons affects the charge on an atom. The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of protons.

From the value Kf=1.2×109 for Ni(NH3)62+, calculate the concentration of NH3 required to just dissolve 0.016 mol of NiC2O4 (Ksp
Nina [5.8K]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of NH_3 required will be 0.285 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of NiC_2O_4, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Moles of NiC_2O_4 = 0.016 moles

Volume of solution = 1 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molarity of }NiC_2O_4=\frac{0.016mol}{1L}=0.016M

For the given chemical equations:

NiC_2O_4(s)\rightleftharpoons Ni^{2+}(aq.)+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_{sp}=4.0\times 10^{-10}

Ni^{2+}(aq.)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_f=1.2\times 10^9

Net equation: NiC_2O_4(s)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K=?

To calculate the equilibrium constant, K for above equation, we get:

K=K_{sp}\times K_f\\K=(4.0\times 10^{-10})\times (1.2\times 10^9)=0.48

The expression for equilibrium constant of above equation is:

K=\frac{[C_2O_4^{2-}][[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]}{[NiC_2O_4][NH_3]^6}

As, NiC_2O_4 is a solid, so its activity is taken as 1 and so for C_2O_4^{2-}

We are given:

[[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]=0.016M

Putting values in above equations, we get:

0.48=\frac{0.016}{[NH_3]^6}}

[NH_3]=0.285M

Hence, the concentration of NH_3 required will be 0.285 M.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

1.82\times 10^6 L is the volume of the air in the balloon after it is heated.

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2} (at constant pressure)

where,

V_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

V_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

V_1= 1.31\times 10^6 L\\T_1=11^oC=(11+273.15)K=284.15K\\V_2=?\\T_2=121^oC=(121+273.15)K=394.15 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{1.31\times 10^6 L}{284.15 K}=\frac{V_2}{394.14 K}\\\\V_2=\frac{V_1\times T_2}{T_1}

V_2=1.82\times 10^6 L

1.82\times 10^6 L is the volume of the air in the balloon after it is heated.
