B. Number of protons in an atom's nucleus

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

An atomic number is the number of protons present inside the nucleus of an atom. The atomic number helps in identification of a chemical element. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equivalent to number of electrons. However, Mass number is the addition of number of protons and neutrons present inside the nucleus of an atom. Isotopes of an atom have same atomic number but different mass number.

How many mol of nitrogen is in 0.30 mol of caffeine
creativ13 [48]
Recall that a mole is defined as Avogadros number of particles.
What the formula of caffeine basically tells us is that for every molecule of caffeine, you will have 4 atoms of nitrogen
So, if we have 0.3 moles of caffeine we will have 4*0.3 moles of nitrogen which is 0.12.
And you got the idea

A sample initially contains 8.0 moles of a radioactive isotope. How much of the sample remains after four half-lives? Express yo
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

0.50 mol

Explanation:

The half-life is <em>the time required for the amount of a radioactive isotope to decay to half that amount</em>.

Initially, there are 8.0 moles.

  • After 1 half-life, there remain 1/2 × 8.0 mol = 4.0 mol.
  • After 2 half-lives, there remain 1/2 × 4.0 mol = 2.0 mol.
  • After 3 half-lives, there remain 1/2 × 2.0 mol = 1.0 mol.
  • After 4 half-lives, there remain 1/2 × 1.0 mol = 0.50 mol.
