Answer:

The Atomic Number of the atom of an element whose model is given is "8" that is option no. 'C' in the question.

Explanation:

An Atom comprises of 3 basic structures that are Protons, Neutrons and Electrons. The central part is the Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons having positive charge and no charge respectively. The electrons are revolving around the nucleus in electronic shells having the negative charge.

<u><em>ATOMIC NUMBER: </em></u>

Atomic number is the number of protons present inside the nucleus of an atom and it determines the place of that particular atom in the <u>Periodic Table.</u>

In the model, given in the question, the nucleus contains 2 types of balls dark gray colored and light gray colored. The key at the bottom shows the dark gray colored ball as having a positive charge and thus it represents the atomic number for the given atom of element which is <u><em>EIGHT (8).</em></u>

So, the atomic number for the given atom is 8 which is element OXYGEN.

Calculate the food energy (joules/
Anna007 [38]

Calculate the food energy (joules/g) of one of your food samples. one chemistry calorie is equal to 4.186 joules. convert the energy you calculated to kilojoules (1 kj = 1000 j). since nothing is given, an example is avocadoes have 160 cal/100 g serving

(160 cal/ 100 g)(4.186 J/ 1 cal) (1 kJ/1000 J) = 0.0067 kJ/g

Acetylene is hyrodgenated to form ethane. The feed to the reactor contains 1.60 mol H2/mol C2H2. The reaction proceeds to comple
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

C₂H₂     +   2H₂   =     C₂H₆

1 mole     2 mole        1 mole

Feed of reactant is 1.6 mole H₂ / mole C₂H₂

or 1.6 mole of H₂ for 1 mole of C₂H₂

required ratio as per chemical reaction written above

2 mole of  H₂ for 1 mole of C₂H₂

So H₂ is in short supply . Hence it is limiting reagent .

1.6 mole of H₂ will react with half of 1.6 mole or .8 mole of C₂H₂ to form .8 mole of C₂H₆

a )Calculate the stoichiometric reactant ratio =  mole H₂ reacted/mole C₂H₂ reacted

= 1.6 / .8 = 2 .

b )

yield ratio = mole C₂H₆ formed / mole H₂ reacted ) = 0.8 / 1.6 = 1/2 = 0.5 .
