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

Chemistry

tangare [24]3 years ago
6 0

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

The balanced equation for combustion in an acetylene torch is shown below:
vichka [17]

Answer:

70mol

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as:

                  2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ → 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

Given parameters:

Number of moles of acetylene = 35.0mol

Number of moles of oxygen in the tank = 84.0mol

Unknown:

Number of moles of CO₂ produced = 35.0mol

Solution:

From the information given about the reaction, we know that the reactant that limits this combustion process is acetylene. Oxygen is given in excess and we don't know the number of moles of this gas that was used up. We know for sure that all the moles of acetylene provided was used to furnish the burning procedure.

To determine the number of moles of CO₂ produced, we use the stoichiometric relationship between the known acetylene and the CO₂ produced from the balanced chemical equation:

From the equation:

         2 moles of acetylene produced 4 moles of CO₂

          ∴ 35.0 mol of acetylene would produced:  

                               \frac{35 x 4}{2} = 70mol
