What is an isotope ? how is the mass calculated ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
8 0

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

how would you write equation to show how buffers H2CO3 and NaHCO3 behave when (a) HCl is added and (b) NaOH is added.
Vlad1618 [11]
<span>H2CO3 <---> H+ + HCO3-
NaHCO3 <---> Na+ + HCO3-

When acid is added in the buffer, the excess H+ of that acid reacts with HCO3- to form H2CO3, and due to this NaHCO3 dissociates into HCO3- to attain the equilibrium. and hence there is no net effect of H+ due to pH remain almost constant. when a base is added to the buffer, the OH- ion of base react eith H+ ion present in buffer, then to attain equilibrium of H+ ion, the H2CO3 dissociates to produce H+ ion, but now there is the excess of HCO3- due to which Na+ ion react with them to attain equilibrium of HCO3-. hence there is again no net change in H+ ion due to which pH remain constant.....</span>

A student titrates a solution containing 0.050 moles of calcium hydroxide with phosphoric acid. How many moles of phosphoric aci
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.33 moles of H₃PO₄

Explanation:

Data

moles of Ca(OH)₂ = 0.050

moles of H₃PO₄ = ?

Process

1.- Write the balanced chemical equation

           3Ca(OH)₂  +  2H₃PO₄    ⇒   Ca₃(PO₄)₂   +   6H₂O

             Reactants        Elements       Products

                    3                      Ca                     3

                   12                       H                     12

                   14                      O                      14

2.- Calculate the moles of phosphoric acid

      3 moles of calcium hydroxide --------------- 2 moles of phosphoric acid

      0.5 moles of calcium hydroxide -----------   x

      x = (0.5 x 2)/3

      x = 0.33 moles
