Answer: They are all basically the same, but the number of neutrons could vary.

Explanation: The atoms of an element are basically alike. However, atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons and electrons. The number of protons is always the same for atoms of the same element.

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An element is defined as a substance that contains atoms of same type.

As copper wire is a substance that is made up of only atoms of copper. And, all these atoms of copper will be the same. Hence, it is an element.

This means that all the atoms of copper will have same number of protons, neutrons and electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement they are all exactly the same best describes the copper atoms.

Calculate AH for the reaction:<br> 2N2 (g) + 6H20 (g) → 302 (g) + 4NH3(g)
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

4NH₃ (g) + 3O₂ (g) ⇒ 2N₂ (g) + 6H₂ O(1)

ΔH_r={\sum}{ \Delta }H_f(\text{product})-{\sum}{ \Delta }H_f(\text{reactant})

ΔH r =(2ΔH f(N 2 )+6ΔH f (H 2 O(l)))−(4ΔH f​ (NH 3 (g))+3ΔH f (O 2 (g)))

ΔH rex =[2×0+6×(−286)]−[4×(−46)+3×0]=−1716+186

ΔH rex =−1532kJ/mol

Thermodynamics is a branch of physical chemistry that studies heat and its effects and interactions. Governed by the four main laws, thermodynamics plays a huge role in physics and chemistry, and is also responsible for the law of conservation of energy, a fundamental rule in science.

Pb has an atomic number of 82. It has an isotope Pb-207. The mass number is 207.
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Number of protons = 82

Explanation:

Given data:

Atomic number of Pb = 82

Mass number of Pb-207 = 207

Number of protons = ?

Solution:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

Atomic number of Pb = number of protons or electrons

82 = number of protons or electrons

Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutron

207 = 82 + number of neutron

Number of neutrons = 207 - 82

Number of neutrons = 125

water’s molar mass is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of glycerol is 92.09 g/mol. At 25 celsius, glycerol is more viscous than water
Gemiola [76]

Answer is: glycerol because it is more viscous and has a larger molar mass.

Viscosity depends on intermolecular interactions.

The predominant intermolecular force in water and glycerol is hydrogen bonding.

Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups in which one group has hydrogen atom (H) and another group has highly electronegative atom such as nitrogen (like in this molecule), oxygen (O) or fluorine (F).
