Answer:

See below.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The two isotopes are Cl-35 and Cl-37.

The average atomic mass (35.45 u) is closer to 35 u, so most of the atoms are Cl-35.

mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

          A          =               p                +               n

         35         =              17                +               n

                   n = 35 – 17

                   n = 18

∴ Most chlorine atoms contain 18 neutrons.

_______ is the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Kelvin. A. A calorie B. En
Maksim231197 [3]
<h2>The required option d) "specific heat" is correct.</h2>

Explanation:

  • To raise the temperature of any substance or material of certain mass to respective temperature it requires some amount of heat.
  • Specific heat is the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of the substance of 1 gram to 1 Kelvin.
  • It is the amount of heat which is required to raise the temperature per unit mass to per unit temperature.
  • Thus, the required "option d) specific heat" is correct.

Which mass of urea, CO(NH2)2, contains the same mass of nitrogen as 101.1g of potassium nitrate?
Effectus [21]
In order to calculate the mass of nitrogen, we must first calculate the mass percentage of nitrogen in potassium nitrate. This is:
% nitrogen = mass of nitrogen / mass of potassium nitrate
% nitrogen = 14 / 101.1 x 100

The mass of nitrogen = % nitrogen x sample mass
= (14 / 101.1) x 101.1
= 14 grams

The molar weight of nitrogen is 14. Each mole of urea contains two moles of nitrogen. Therefore, for there to be 14 grams of nitrogen, there must be 0.5 moles of urea.
Mass of urea = moles urea x molecular weight urea
Mass of urea = 0.5 x 66.06
Mass of urea = 33.03 grams

Consider the change given below. At constant pressure, is work done by the system on the surroundings? By the surroundings on th
alexira [117]

Answer : At constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Explanation :

Work done : Any quantity that flows across the boundary of a system during a change in its state and it completely convertible into the lifting of a weight in the surroundings.

Formula for work done is:

w=-p_{ext}dV

Sign convention :

  • When volume expand then system work that means work done by the system.

w = (-ve)

  • When volume compress then surrounding work that means work done on the system.

w = (+ve)

The given reaction is:

Hg(l)\rightarrow Hg(g)

This is a evaporation process in which phase changes from liquid state to gaseous state at constant temperature.

At constant pressure, work depends only on volume.

In evaporation process, the volume expand that means work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Sign convention is, w = (-ve)

Thus, at constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.
