What is the mass of an element with 15 protons, 13 electrons, and 11 neutrons? *

Chemistry
1 answer:
RSB [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The mass of the element is 26.20 amu

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the mass of an element with 15 protons, 13 electrons and 11 neutrons

To calculate the atomic mass of the element, we take into consideration the masses of the individual sub atomic particles

Electrons have 0 atomic mass unit(their masses are negligible) we have no business here, Protons have a mass of

1.00727647 amu, while the mass of neutron is 1.0086654 amu

The mass of 15 protons is thus 15 * 1.00727647 = 15.10914705 amu

The mass of 11 neutrons is 11 * 1.0086654 =

11.0953194 amu

Adding this together, we have ; 11.0953194 + 15.10914705 = approximately 26.20 amu

Which of the following are SI units? Select<br> all that apply.
Dimas [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Seconds (s)

Liters (L)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

SI units relate to the International System of Units. These units are the base, metric units that are most commonly accepted for different measurements.

Common SI Units

The most common SI units are as follows:

  • Length - meter (m)
  • Time - second (s)
  • Mass - kilogram (kg)
  • Amount of substance - mole (mole)
  • Electric current - ampere (A)
  • Temperature - kelvin (K)
  • Volume - liter (L)

*Note that gram (g) is not an SI unit

Each type of measurement will only have 1 SI unit. This is the unit that will be expected for most answers. Sometimes this means converting an answer into a different unit so it is more widely accepted.

Why SI Units are Important

SI units are important for the same reason that the metric system is used. It gives a standardized list of measurements that scientists across the world can use. Also, it makes it easier to compare scientific findings and studies when all of the measurements are given in the same units.

There are times when it is unrealistic to use SI units. For example, when discussing space, using meters will not be realistic due to the size of space. Also, when measuring the mass of small elements, kilograms are too large. But otherwise, SI units should be used.

The series which is in order of increasing boiling point is CH3CH2CH3 CH3COCH3 CH2CH2CH3OH

However, the boiling point of an organic substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid organic substance equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor.

<h3>What are organic compounds?</h3>

Organic compounds are substance containing carbon and hydrogen. Some few organic compounds include:

  • Alkanes
  • Alkenes
  • Alkynes
  • Alkanols
  • Alkanals
  • Alkanones
  • Esters
  • Amines

So therefore, the series which is in order of increasing boiling point is CH3CH2CH3 CH3COCH3 CH2CH2CH3OH

A gas exerts a pressure of 0.62 atm. Convert this to kPa and mmHg. Be sure to show your work.
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.62 atm = 62.82 kPa = 471.2 mmHg

Explanation:

Data

P = 0.62 atm

P = ? kPa

P = ? mmHg

Process

1.- Look for the conversion factor of atm to kPa and mmHg

 1 atm = 101.325 kPa

1 atm = 760 mmHg

2.- Do the conversions

                  1 atm ----------------- 101.325 kPa

                  0.62 atm ------------  x

                   x = (0,62 x 101.325) / 1

                  x = 62.82 kPa

                   1 atm ------------------ 760 mmHg

                   0.62 atm ------------  x

                   x = (0.62 x 760)/1

                   x = 471.2 mmHg

Drawing Conclusions
Dmitrij [34]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.
