The atomic number of an element best corresponds to which of the following?

Chemistry
1 answer:
xenn [34]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of that element.

Explanation: the atomic number of an element is simply the proton number of that element. This is the most reason while the ion of a particular element still retain its atomic number whether it gains or loss electrons. For example, sodium atom (Na) has 11 electrons, 11 protons and 12 neutrons. Sodium ion (Na+) on the other hand has 10 electrons because it loss one electron, 11 proton and 12 neutrons. If the atomic number was to be determined by the number of electrons, then the atomic number of sodium atom and sodium ion would have been different. So the best way to determine the atomic number is by the number of protons. Neutron number will only bring about isotope and not atomic number

The pH at the equivalence point will be a. less than 7.00 b. equal to 7.00 Allohalineup of a sto quivalence point of a titration
True [87]

Answer: c. greater than 7.00

Explanation: The equivalence point of a titration is when all the base is consumed by the acid. When a strong base and a strong acid react, the medium is neutralized because is produced water and salt (which won't suffer hydrolysis). How water's pH is 7, in this type of titration the pH of the equivalence point will be at pH=7. But on titration of a weak acid with a strong base, the reaction of the equivalence point produces water and the conjugate base of the acid. Because the acid is weak, their conjugate base will be strong and will suffer hydrolysis, producing hydroxyl ions, elevating the pH of the water and making it greater than 7.

A solution that is a 4 on pH scale is a
Dominik [7]
A pH scale runs from 1 to 14 with 7 being neutral.

1-6 has base like properties
8-14 has avid line properties

since this solution has a pH scale of 4.... the solution is basic

How many protons z and how many neutrons n are there in a nucleus of the most common isotope of silicon, 2814si?
zheka24 [161]
The 28 is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the element silicon.
ALL silicon atoms have 14 protons in the nucleus, so we can turn this into an equation:
#protons + #neutrons = 28
14 + #neutrons = 28
#neutrons = 14
#protons = 14

What is used to classify galaxies?star typesestimated agecolorshape
lianna [129]
The correct answer among the choices given is the last option. Galaxies are classified according to their shapes or visual morphology. There three main types of galaxies currently. They are the elliptical, spiral and irregular. Elliptical galaxies are like a spheriod or an elongated sphere. Spiral galaxies are characterized and distinguished by having a bulge, a disk and a halo. Lastly, irregular galaxies do not have regular or symmetrical shape.

When 20.0 g of KI are dissolved in 50.0 mL of distilled water in a calorimeter, the temperature drops from 24.0 °C to 19.0 °C. C
Reil [10]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>8.67kJ/mol</em>

<h2>Explanations</h2>

The formula for calculating the amount of heat absorbed by the water is given as:

\begin{gathered} q=mc\triangle t \\ q=50\times4.18\frac{J}{g^oC}\times(19-24) \\ q=50\times4.18\times(-5) \\ q=-1045Joules \\ q=-1.045kJ \end{gathered}

Determine the moles of KI

\begin{gathered} moles\text{ of KI}=\frac{mass\text{ of KI}}{molar\text{ mass of KI}} \\ moles\text{ of KI}=\frac{20g}{166g\text{/mol}} \\ moles\text{ of KI}=0.1205moles \end{gathered}

Since heat is lost, hence the enthalpy change of the solution will be negative that is:

\begin{gathered} \triangle H=-q \\ \triangle H=-(-1.045kJ) \\ \triangle H=1.045kJ \end{gathered}

Determine the enthalpy of solution in kJ•mol-1

\begin{gathered} \triangle H_{diss}=\frac{1.045kJ}{0.1205mole} \\ \triangle H_{diss}\approx8.67kJmol^{-1} \end{gathered}

Hence the enthalpy of solution in kJ•mol-1 for KI is 8.67kJ/mol
