atoms of the same element with different mass are called isotopes. Atoms of the same element with same number of proton but different number of neutrons.

Isotopes of any given factor all incorporate the equal variety of protons, so they have the identical atomic wide variety (for example, the atomic wide variety of helium is usually 2). Isotopes of a given factor include exceptional numbers of neutrons, therefore, special isotopes have special mass numbers.

State the definition of the partial molar Gibbs energy.
balu736 [363]

Explanation :

As we know that the Gibbs free energy is not only function of temperature and pressure but also amount of each substance in the system.

G=G(T,P,n_1,n_2)

where,

n_1\text{ and }n_2 is the amount of component 1 and 2 in the system.

Partial molar Gibbs free energy : The partial derivative of Gibbs free energy with respect to amount of component (i) of a mixture when other variable (T,P,n_j) are kept constant are known as partial molar Gibbs free energy of i^{th} component.

For a substance in a mixture, the chemical potential (\mu) is defined as the partial molar Gibbs free energy.

The expression will be:

\bar{G_i}=\mu_i=\frac{\partial G}{\partial n_i}_{(T,P,n_j)}

where,

T = temperature

P = pressure

n_i\text{ and }n_j is the amount of component 'i' and 'j' in the system.

Are silver spoons tarnished and turned black, chemical or physical property?
zavuch27 [327]
He ability to rust is a chemical property of iron. The metal silver does not rust, but eventually a darker substance called tarnish forms on its surface. The chemical properties of copper cause it to become a blue-green color when it is exposed to air

Can someone explain the steps for balancing chemical equations in depth?
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Steps explained below

Explanation:

To explain balancing of chemical equations, I will make use of an example equation where Hydrogen and oxygen react to form water.

H2 + O2 = H2O

Now, the equation I've listed above is an unbalanced chemical equation. It can be balanced by the following steps;

Step 1: Identify the elements on both the left Hand side and the right hand side.

In this case;

on the left hand side, we have H and O.

On the right hand side, we have H and I also.

Step 2: Identify the number of atoms of each element on both the left and right hand sides.

On the left, H has 2 atoms and O has 2 atoms.

On the right, H has 2 atoms and O has 1 atom.

Step 3: For the equation to be balanced, the number of atoms of each element on the right and left hand side must be the same.

Thus,

O on the left hand side has 2 atoms but on the right hand side it has 1 atom. Thus, we will multiply O on the right by 2 to balance what we have on the left.

So, we now have;

H2 + O2 = 2H2O

Step 4: Check equation: We now have;

H2 + O2 = 2H2O

Our left hand side remains 2 atoms of H and 2 atoms of O. But on the right, we now have;

2 atoms O and 4 atoms of H.

Which means atoms of H is not balanced with the left side.

Step 5: rebalance equation: To rebalance, we multiply H on the left by 2 to give us 2 × 2 = 4 atoms.

Thus, we now have;

2H2 + O2 = 2H2O
