A corn oil. Because oil is treated with a solvent. After that it is refined which gets rid of free fatty acids. Finally, it is sent through steam distillation to get rid of volatile organic compounds.
He proposed that energy levels of electrons are discrete and that the electrons revolve in stable orbits around the atomic nucleus but can jump from one energy level (or orbit) to another.
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components making up a compound.
The percentage composition of each element has been given
therefore the mass present of each element in 100 g of compound is
B N H
mass 40.28 g 52.20 g 7.53 g
number of moles
40.28 g / 11 g/mol 52.20 g / 14 g/mol 7.53 g / 1 g/mol
= 3.662 mol = 3.729 mol = 7.53 mol
divide the number of moles by the least number of moles, that is 3.662
3.662 / 3.662 3.729 / 3.662 7.53 / 3.662
= 1.000 = 1.018 = 2.056
the ratio of the elements after rounding off to the nearest whole number is
B : N : H = 1 : 1 : 2
therefore empirical formula for the compound is B₁N₁H₂
that can be written as BNH₂
In order to solve this question, we must apply the conservation of mass. The total number of nucleons (upper number) and protons (lower number) must be equal before and after the decay. The new nucleon number is
218 - 4
= 214
And new proton number is
84 - 2
= 82
Next, we must identify which element has the proton number 82. That would be lead, Pb.
Therefore, the answer is
5. ²¹⁴Pb₈₂
Answer:
A. there is an isotope of lanthanum with an atomic mass of 138.9
Explanation:
By knowing the different atomic masses of both Lanthanum atoms, we can not tell anything about their occurence in nature. Therefore, all the last three options are incorrect. Because, the atomic mass does not tell anything about the availability or natural abundance of an element.
Now, the isotopes of an element are those elements, which have same number of electrons and protons as the original element, but different number of neutrons. Therefore, they have same atomic number but, different atomic weight or atomic masses.
Hence, by looking at an elements having same atomic number, but different atomic masses, we can identify them as isotopes.
Thus, the correct option is:
<u>A. there is an isotope of lanthanum with an atomic mass of 138.9.</u>
