<u>Answer:</u> The atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons and an atom with 6 protons and 7 neutrons are the isotopes of same element.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotopes are defined as the chemical species that belong to the same element but differ in their mass number.

This also means that the chemical species have same number of protons and electrons but different number of neutrons.

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or electrons that are present in a neutral atom.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

From the given options:

The elements having same number of protons will be the isotopes of same element.

Hence, the atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons and an atom with 6 protons and 7 neutrons are the isotopes of same element.

In which set do all elements tend to form anions in binary ionic compounds? li, na, k n, o, i c, s, pb k, fe, br?
pav-90 [236]

Atoms or molecule after gaining of electron possesses negative charge and is known as anion.

For the given sets:

  • Li, Na, K

The given elements are alkali metals and have tendency to lose electrons easily and form cations.

  • N, O, I

The given elements are non-metals and are electronegative. So, they gain electrons easily and form anion.

  • C, S, Pb

Carbon has tendency to form bond by sharing of electrons, Sulfur has tendency to gain electrons and form anion whereas Lead has tendency to lose electron.

  • K, Fe, Br

Potassium and Iron has tendency to lose electron and form cation whereas Bromine has tendency to gain electron to form anion.

Hence, from the given sets, all elements of set: N, O, I have tendency to form anions in binary ionic compounds.

You need to prepare 100.0 mL of a pH 4.00 buffer solution using 0.100 M benzoic acid (p K a = 4.20 ) and 0.200 M sodium benzoate
bekas [8.4K]

Answer : The volume of sodium benzoate and benzoic acid  solution mixed to prepare this buffer should be, 29.0 mL and 71 mL respectively.

Explanation :

Let the volume of sodium benzoate (salt) be, x

So, the volume of benzoic acid  (acid) will be, (100 - x)

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

4.00=4.20+\log \left(\frac{(\frac{0.200x}{100})}{(\frac{0.100(100-x)}{100})}\right)

x = 29.0

The volume of sodium benzoate = x = 29.0 mL

The volume of benzoic acid  (acid) = (100 - x) = (100 - 29.0) = 71 mL

Thus, the volume of sodium benzoate and benzoic acid  solution mixed to prepare this buffer should be, 29.0 mL and 71 mL respectively.
