Has a negative charge and emits energy when it moves to a lower energy orbit from an excited state.

electrons are NOT found in the nucleus but are actually found in rings surrounding the nucleus called orbits.

And while protons and neutrons have reltively the same mass, electrons are about 2000 times lighter.

Also: side note, when electrons move FROM a lower energy orbit INTO an excited state, it absorbs light.

Answer : The correct options are,

An electron has a negative charge.

An electron emits energy when it moves to a lower energy orbit from an excited state.

Explanation :

As we know that there are three subatomic particles which are proton, neutrons and electrons. The proton which are positively charged and the neutron that is neutral (no charge) both are present inside the nucleus and the electron which are negatively charged and it is present outside or around the nucleus.

As per given in the question,

An electron is a subatomic particle that has a negative charge and it emits energy when it moves to a lower energy state from an excited state.

Where as proton and electrons have different masses but same magnitude of charge with opposite charges.

The mass of proton = $1.67\times 10^{-27}Kg$

The mass of electron = $9.1\times 10^{-31}Kg$

How many milliliters of a 3.4 M NaCl solution would be needed to prepare each solution?

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

a. Approximately $1.3\; \rm mL$ .

b. Approximately $7.2\; \rm mL$ .

Explanation:

The unit of concentration " $\rm M$ " is equivalent to " $\rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ ", which means "moles per liter."

However, the volume of both solutions were given in mililiters $\rm mL$ . Convert these volumes to liters:

$\displaystyle 45\; \rm mL = 45\; \rm mL \times \frac{1\; \rm L}{1000\; \rm mL} = 0.045\; \rm L$ .

$\displaystyle 330\; \rm mL = 330\; \rm mL \times \frac{1\; \rm L}{1000\; \rm mL} = 0.330\; \rm L$ .

In a solution of volume $V$ where the concentration of a solute is $c$ , there would be $c \cdot V$ (moles of) formula units of this solute.

Calculate the number of moles of $\rm NaCl$ formula units in each of the two solutions:

Solution in a.:

$n = c \cdot V = 0.045\; \rm L \times 0.10\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} = 0.0045\; \rm mol$ .

Solution in b.:

$n = c \cdot V = 0.330\; \rm L \times 0.074\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} = 0.02442\; \rm mol$ .

What volume of that $3.4\; \rm M$ (same as $3.4 \; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ ) $\rm NaCl$ solution would contain that many

For the solution in a.:

$\displaystyle V = \frac{n}{c} = \frac{0.0045\; \rm mol}{3.4\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}} \approx 0.0013\; \rm L$ .

Convert the unit of that volume to milliliters:

$\displaystyle 0.0013\; \rm L = 0.0013\; \rm L \times \frac{1000\; \rm mL}{1\; \rm L} = 1.3\; \rm mL$ .

Similarly, for the solution in b.:

$\displaystyle V = \frac{n}{c} = \frac{0.02442\; \rm mol}{3.4\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}} \approx 0.0072\; \rm L$ .

Convert the unit of that volume to milliliters:

$\displaystyle 0.0072\; \rm L = 0.0072\; \rm L \times \frac{1000\; \rm mL}{1\; \rm L} = 7.2\; \rm mL$ .

A rock weighing 26.0g placed graduated cylinder displacing the volume from 13.12ml to 25.3ml what is the density of the rock in

tia_tia [17]

density = mass /volume

1)mass of rock = 26.0 gram

2)volume of rock = volume of water it has displaced= 25.3-13.12 = 12.18

put the value of mass and volume in first equation and get the density value

An electric current can be conducted by _____. a sugar solution rubbing alcohol methane gas a salt solution

VMariaS [17]

The answer is salt water.

Salt water can conduct electricity or we can say that an electric current is conducted by salt water as salt water is a good conductor of electricity when salt that is sodium chloride or NaCl is dissolved in water , positively charged sodium (Na⁺) and negatively charged chlorine(Cl⁻) molecules are set apart by the water molecule so that they can float easily and freely. We can define the conductivity of a substance as the mobility or movement of ions. So as in water, sodium and chlorine are set apart and can move freely so it become a electrolyte that can conduct electricity.
