Consider the gold isotope 197Au. How many electrons, protons, and neutrons are in a neutral 197Au atom?

Chemistry

Answer:

The 197Au isotope has 79 protons, 79 electrons and 118 neutrons

Explanation:

Step 1: The isotope = 197Au

Step 2: Calculate neutrons, electrons and protons

197 = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Isotopes always have the same proton number ( is the same as the atomic number). For Gold (Au) is this 79.

The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom. Since we have 79 protons, there are also 79 electrons.

All isotopes of Au have a different number of neutrons.

The number of neutrons = 197 -79 = 118 neutrons

The 197Au isotope has 79 protons, 79 electrons and 118 neutrons

Which situation would cause the following equilibrium reaction to decrease the formation of the products? 2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) Two
vovangra [49]

The given equilibrium reaction is,

2 SO_{2} (g) + O_{2}(g)  2 SO_{3} (g) + Energy

The given reaction is exothermic. So, heat energy will be a product. Therefore, decreasing the temperature (heat energy) would lead to the formation of more products as when the amount of energy which is a product is reduced, there is more room for the products to form.

Increasing the pressure would shift the equilibrium towards that side which has least number of moles of the gaseous substance. Hence, here increasing the pressure would lead to the formation of more products by shifting the equilibrium towards the right side.

Decreasing the volume would make the equilibrium shift towards the least number of moles of the gaseous substance. So, here in this equilibrium decreasing the volume would lead to the formation of more products.

How do CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword as CFC's were made for the advantages but soon or later it came as a disadvantage for environment.

CFC's was discovered with many advantages such as they are stable, non-corrosive, and replacement of harmful ammonia used in refrigerators  and air conditioning systems. But soon it is also discovered that CFC's are destroying  the upper atmosphere layer called ozone, which is a very big disadvantage for us. CFCs are major contributor  to global warming after carbon dioxide.

Hence, it proves that CFC’s shows how technological advancement can be “double-edged” sword.
