Atomic number . . .
-- the number of protons in an atom
-- the number of electrons in a neutral atom
-- neutrons are not involved

Atomic mass . . .
-- roughly but not exactly the total of (protons + neutrons) in an atom
-- electrons are not involved

tangare [24]

Explanation:

When a metal replaces another metal in solution, we say such a reaction has undergone a single displacement reaction.

In such a reaction, metal higher up in the activity series replaces another one due to their position.

To known the metal or metals that will replace the given copper, we need to reference the activity series of metals.

Every metal higher than copper in the series will displace copper from the solution.

So, there metals are: potassium, sodium, lithium, barium, strontium etc.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

All physical quantities are broadly classified into scalar quantities and vector quantities.

Scalar quantities have magnitude but do not have direction. Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction. Hence the main difference between a scalar quantity and a vector quantity is that a vector has direction while a scalar quantity does not.

Speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity. You have just specified a magnitude of 200 mph without mentioning its direction. This implies that you are referring to speed of the cars in the race and not velocity because velocity of the cars must indicate the direction!

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.31 l at 287 k and 1.10 atm. calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.45 l and the

balu736 [363]

Hello!

The pressure of the Ideal Gas when the volume is 1,45 L and the temperature is 298 K is 1,82 atm.

To solve this problem we need to apply the Ideal Gas Law for the initial conditions and the final ones, clearing the equation for the number of moles (n) and the ideal gas constant (R) which remain constant:

$P_n*V_n=n*R*T_n \\ \\ n*R= \frac{P_n*V_n}{T_n}$

Now we match n*R for the initial conditions (1) and the final ones (2), clearing the equation for P₂

$\frac{P_1*V_1}{T_1}= \frac{P_2*V_2}{T_2} \\ \\ P_2= \frac{P_1*V_1*T_2}{T_1*V_2}= \frac{1,10 atm*2,31 L *298 K}{287K*1,45 L}=1,82 atm$

Have a nice day!
