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

Describe the day of June 21 at the North Pole in terms of daylight and darkness <br> ( science )
frosja888 [35]
On June 21, as seen from the North pole ...

-- the sun has been up, and it's been light outside,
for the past three months ... ever since March 21 . 

-- The sun won't set, and it won't be dark outside,
for another three months ... until September 21.

-- Here at the North pole, it stays daylight for six months straight.
Today, on June 21, we're exactly halfway through the period of
continuous daylight.

What geopolitical process returns carbon to the atmosphere in the from of carbon dioxide
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Recall that plants use water, atmospheric carbon dioxide, and energy from the sun to build their organic framework through photosynthesis. Therefore, plants draw down atmospheric carbon dioxide as part of their life habit. When plants die, the organic matter is oxidized and carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere.

A buffer is prepared by dissolving honh2 and honh3no3 in some water. write equations to show how this buffer neutralizes added h
Anestetic [448]
Hydroxylamine in water: HONH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ HONH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Hydroxylammonium nitrate in water: HONH₃NO₃(aq) → OHNH₃⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq).
1) with positive hydrogen ions (protons) react base and gives weak conjugate acid: 
H⁺(aq) + HONH₂(aq) ⇄ HONH₃⁺(aq).
2) with hydroxide anions react acid and produce weak base and weak electrolyte water:
HONH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ⇄ HONH₂(aq) + H₂O(l).

Substitute natural gas (SNG) is a gaseous mixture containing CH4(g) that can be used as a fuel. One reaction for the production
Lynna [10]

Answer:

ΔH° of the reaction is -747.54kJ

Explanation:

Based on gas law, it is possible to find the ΔH of a reaction using ΔH of half reactions.

Using the reactions:

<em>(1) </em>C(graphite) + 1/2O₂(g) → CO(g) ΔH° = -110.5 kJ

<em>(2) </em>CO(g) + 1/2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) ΔH° = -283.0 kJ

<em>(3) </em>H₂(g) + 1/2O₂(g) → H₂O(l) ΔH° = -285.8 kJ

<em>(4) </em>C(graphite) + 2H₂(g) → CH₄(g) ΔH° = -74.81 kJ

<em>(5) </em>CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) ΔH° = -890.3 kJ

The sum of 4×(4) + (5) gives:

4C(graphite) + 8H₂(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) + 3CH₄(g)

ΔH° = -74.81 kJ ×4 - 890.3 kJ = -1189.54kJ

Now, this reaction - 4×(1) gives:

4CO(g) + 8H₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) + 3CH₄(g)

ΔH° = -1189.54kJ - 4×-110.5 = <em>-747.54kJ</em>

<em></em>

Thus <em>ΔH° of the reaction is -747.54kJ</em>
