Carbon atoms can be identified based on the # of which subatomic particles

Chemistry
1 answer:
34kurt2 years ago
6 0

Answer: protons and neutrons.

The nucleus is made up of 3 subatomic particles that are protons,neutrons and electrons.  

General notation of an element is _{Z}^{A}\textrm{X}

where, X is the Element, A is the Atomic Mass and Z is the Atomic Number

If we know the number of protons we can easily find out the atomic number of any element because Atomic Number = Number of protons in an element.

And in addition if we know the number of neutrons we can easily find out the atomic mass of an element because

Atomic Mass = (Number of protons) + (Number of neutrons)

If we get to know the atomic number and atomic mass, we can easily tell what element is it by looking from the periodic table.

1) When 2.38g of magnesium is added to 25.0cm of 2.27 M hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is released.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

a. HCl.

b. 0.057 g.

c. 1.69 g.

d. 77 %.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid is:

Mg+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_2+H_2

Whereas there is 1:2 mole ratio between them.

a) Here, we can identify the limiting reactant as that yielded the fewest moles of hydrogen gas product via the 1:1 and 2:1 mole ratios:

n_{H_2}^{by\  HCl}=0.025L*2.27\frac{molHCl}{1L}*\frac{1molH_2}{2molHCl}  =0.0284molH_2\\\\n_{H_2}^{by\  Mg}=2.38gMg*\frac{1molMg}{24.3gMg}*\frac{1molH_2}{1molMg}=0.0979molH_2

Thus, since hydrochloric yields fewer moles of hydrogen than magnesium, we realize it is the limiting reactant.

b) Here, we use the molar mass of gaseous hydrogen (2.02 g/mol) to compute the mass:

m_{H_2}=0.0284molH_2*\frac{2.02gH_2}{1molH_2}=0.057gH_2

c) Here, we compute the mass of magnesium associated with the yielded 0.0248 moles of hydrogen:

m_{Mg}^{reacted}=0.0284molH_2*\frac{1molMg}{1molH_2}*\frac{24.3gMg}{1molMg}  =0.690gMg

Thus, the mass of excess magnesium turns out:

m_{Mg}^{excess}=2.38g-0.690g=1.69gMg

d) Finally, we compute the percent yield, considering 0.044 g is the actual yield and 0.057 g the theoretical yield:

Y=\frac{0.044g}{0.057g} *100\%\\\\Y=77\%

List the bonding pairs H and I; S and O; K and Br; Si and Cl, H and F; Se and S; C and H in order of increasing covalent charact
stellarik [79]

Answer:

1. (S,O) < (Se,S) < (C,H) = (H,I) = (H,F) < (Si,Cl) < (K,Br)

Explanation:

The covalent character always increases down the group, this is because ionic character decreases down the group and also electronegativity.

In the same way, Covalent character always decreases across a period because electronegativity increases across a period.

The higher the electronegativity values between the two atoms, the more ionic it will be.

How many moles are equal to 1.3 x 1024 atoms of aluminum?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.16 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L}  \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{1.3 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 2.159468...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.16 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

Is there a clear difference between a very polar covalent bond and an ionic bond explain?
garik1379 [7]
Yes, Ionic bonds do not share electrons. Polar covalent bonds share electrons they just share them unevenly due to the polarity.
