Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons.

Atomic number is the total number of protons present.

Mass number = protons + neutrons

Atomic number = protons present.

From the above equations we can conclude that,

Atomic number= Mass number- neutrons.

Thus we can find out the atomic number by subtracting the number of neutrons from the mass number.

Two gas-filled tanks have the same volume, temperature, and pressure. They are identical in every way except that one is filled

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The tank with O₂ weighs more.

Explanation:

We can find the mass of gas using the ideal gas equation.

$P.V=n.R.T=\frac{m}{M} .R.T\\m=\frac{P.V.M}{R.T}$

Considering the pressure (P), volume (V), temperature (T) and ideal gas constant (R) are the same, we can establish that:

m ∝ M

The mass is directly proportional to the molar mass. The molar mass of O₂ (32 g/mol) is higher than the molar mass of N₂ (28 g/mol). Therefore, the tank with O₂ weighs more.

A 0.8115 g sample of HCl was placed into a 50 mL volumetric flask and the sample was thoroughly dissolved in water to make 50 mL

inysia [295]

Answer:

Molarity of NaOH solution is 1.009 M

Explanation:

Molar mass of HCl is 36.46 g/mol

Number moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

So, 0.8115 g of HCl = $\frac{0.8115}{36.46}moles$ HCl = 0.02226 moles HCl

1 mol of NaOH neutralizes 1 mol of HCl.

So, if molarity of NaOH solution is S(M) then moles of NaOH required to reach endpoint is $\frac{S\times 22.07}{1000}moles$

So, $\frac{S\times 22.07}{1000}=0.02226$

or, S = 1.009

So, molarity of NaOH solution is 1.009 M

To 225 mL of a 0. 80 M solution of Kl, a student adds enough water to make 1. 0 L of a more dilute Kl solution. What is the mola

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer: 0.18 M

Explanation:

Initial molarity, M1 = 0.8 M

Initial olume, V1 = 225 ml

Final volume, V2 = 1000 ml

Final Molarity, M2 = M1V1/V2

= 0.8 x 225/1000

= 0.18 M
