Chemistry
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago

Answer:

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number. All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom

Explanation:

For any given isotope, the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus is called the mass number. This is because each proton and each neutron weigh one atomic mass unit (amu). By adding together the number of protons and neutrons and multiplying by 1 amu, you can calculate the mass of the atom

Describe what is happening to the mass of water when sugar is dissolved in it.(5 sentences min) ​
nika2105 [10]

Answer:​

The solid sugar crystals break apart in water as the sugar dissolves, but the individual sugar particles or molecules are still present and do not change as a result of dissolving in the water. The combined mass of the sugar and water shouldn't change.

Sodium thiosulfate, Na 2S 2O 3, is used as a "fixer" in black and white photography. Identify the reducing agent in the reaction
Tatiana [17]

Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

Explanation:

A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.

In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in S_{2}O^{2-}_{3} is +2 and I_{2}(aq) has 0 oxidation state.

In S_{4}O^{2-}_{6}(aq) oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in 2I^{-}(aq) oxidation state of I is -1.

Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.

Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.
