Vikentia [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: 22 neutrons

Explanation: 40 is the mass number = atomic mass = total number of protons and neutrons in atomic nucleus

18 is the number of protons in the nucleus of this atom

Then 40 - 18 = 22 neutrons

and this is Argon

The compound ncl3 is nitrogen trichloride, but alcl3 is simply aluminum chloride. why
AveGali [126]
The answer to this question would be:
NCl3 is a molecular compound (two or more nonmetals), and therefore in its name prefixes indicate the number of each type of atom. so NCl3 is nitrogen trichloride<span>.
</span><span>The compound AlCl3 is an ionic compound (metal and nonmetal), and therefore does not require prefixes. so AlCl3 is aluminum chloride.
</span><span>
Both of nitrogen and chlorine is nonmetal, but aluminum is metal. Metal with nonmetal will make an ionic compound that doesn't need prefixes.</span>

What is the molarity of a solution of sulfuric acid if 49.0 mL of it are neutralized by a titration
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

THE MOLARITY OF THE ACID IS 0.232M

Explanation:

Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of a solution.

In titration, the molarity of the acid and the molarity of the base are related by this equation:

Ca VA / CbVb = na / nb

Ca = concentration of the acid = ?

Va = volume of the acid = 49 mL

Cb = concentration of the base = 0.333M

Vb = volume of the base = 68.4mL

Na = number of mole of acid = 1

Nb = number of mole of base = 2

Equation for the reaction:

H2SO4 + 2NaOH --------> Na2SO4 + 2H2O

Solving for the molarity of the acid, we have :

Ca = CbVbNa / VaNb

Ca = 0.333M * 68.4mL * 1 / 49mL *2

Ca = 22.7772 * 10^-3 / 98 *10^-3

Ca = 0.232M

The molarity of the acid is therefore 0.232M.

What mass of phosphoric acid (h3po4, 98.0 g/mol) is produced from the reaction of 10.0 g of p4o10 (284 g/mol) with excess water?
Hoochie [10]
When the balanced reaction equation is:
P4O10 + 6H2O→ 4 H3PO4
when we have the mass of P4O10 = 10 g  and the molar mass of P4O10=284 g/mol & we have the molar mass of H3PO4 =98 g/mol so we can get the mass of H3PO4 by substitution by:
mass of H3PO4 = (mass of P4O10)/(molar mass of P4O10) * 4(mol of H3PO4)*molar mass of H3PO4
∴mass of H3PO4 = (10 / 284) * 4 * 98 = 13.8 g
