Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen molecules and Nitrogen molecules forms in a very similar way. The attraction between particles of oxygen is great due to its very high electronegativity value. Oxygen has a higher electronegative value compared to nitrogen.

Electronegativity of an atom is the relative tendency with which atoms of an element attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond. Valence electrons are used in forming chemical bonds. They can be transferred from one atom to the other or they can be shared.

Oxygen is the second most electronegative atom on the periodic table. To form a bond, it shares the valence electrons in order for its octet to be complete. Pull for the valence electrons between the contributing atoms is very strong due to their large electronegative values. This pull is stronger compared to that between nitrogen atoms.

How many grams hydrogen in 4.5 mol H2SO4
swat32
H2SO4 ---> 2H^+ + SO4^2-

Hence n H+ = 9 mols

Mass of H = nM = (9*1) = 9g


Alternately

mass of H2SO4= nM= 4.5*98= 441

Mass of H= mass h2so4 * molar mass of H/molar mass of h2so4
Mass of H= 441 * 2/98 = 9g

What is the mass of 4.42 cm3 of platinum? The density of platinum is 22.5 g/cm3. (Sig Fig rules + units)
fgiga [73]

Answer: 99.45 g

Explanation: we have 22.5 g of Platinum in every 1cm3 of Platinum so if we take 4.42 cm3 of Platinum we will have 4.42 × 22.5 g = 99.45 g of Platinum

What is the mass percentage of O in C₂H₄O₂? Provide an answer to two decimal places.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

53.29%

Explanation:

The molar mass of C2H4O2 is 60.05g and the 2 O's are 32.00g

so 32.00/60.05= 0.53288925895

and that as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredths is 53.29%

Microwave ovens work by irradiating food with microwaves, which are absorbed by the water molecules in the food and converted to
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

7.45\times 10^{26} photons are emitted per second in a 1\times 10^3 Watt microwave oven.

Explanation:

The expression for the power is:-

Power=\frac{Energy}{Time}

Also, E=n\times \frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

n = the number of photons

h =  Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c =  the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda = the wavelength of the light

So,  

Power=\frac{n}{Time}\times \frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

Thus, the expression for photons per second is:-

\frac{n}{Time}=\frac{Power\times \lambda}{h\times c}

Given that:-

Power = 10³ Watt

( 1 cm = 0.01 m)

[/tex]

So,  

Photon/sec=\frac{10^{3}\times 0.148}{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}=7.45\times 10^{26}

7.45\times 10^{26} photons are emitted per second in a 1\times 10^3 Watt microwave oven.
