In order of relative atomic mass.
1) Calculate the number of moles of O2 (g) in 300 cm^3 of gas at 298 k and 1 atm
Ideal gas equation: pV = nRT => n = pV / RT
R = 0.0821 atm*liter/K*mol
V = 300 cm^3 = 0.300 liter
T = 298 K
p = 1 atm
=> n = 1 atm * 0.300 liter / [ (0.0821 atm*liter /K*mol) * 298K] = 0.01226 mol
2) The reaction of a metal with O2(g) to form an ionic compound (with O2- ions) is of the type
X (+) + O2 (g) ---> X2O or
2 X(2+) + O2(g) ----> X2O2 = 2XO or
4X(3+) + 3O2(g) ---> 2X2O3
In the first case, 1 mol of metal react with 1 mol of O2(g); in the second case, 2 moles of metal react with 1 mol of O2(g); in the third, 4 moles of X react with 3 moles of O2(g)
So, lets probe those 3 cases.
3) Case 1: 1 mol of metal X / 1 mol O2(g) = x moles / 0.01226 mol
=> x = 0.01226 moles of metal X
Now you can calculate the atomic mass of the hypotethical metal:
1.15 grams / 0.01226 mol = 93.8 g / mol
That does not correspond to any of the metal with valence 1+
So, now probe the case 2.
4) Case 2:
2moles X metal / 1 mol O2(g) = x / 0.01226 mol
=> x = 2 * 0.01226 = 0.02452 mol
And the atomic mass of the metal is: 1.15 g / 0.02452 mol = 46.9 g/mol
That is similar to the atomic mass of titanium which is 47.9 g / mol and whose valece is 2+.
4) Case 3
4 mol meta X / 3 mol O2 = x / 0.01226 => x = 0.01226 * 4 / 3 = 0.01635
atomic mass = 1.15 g / 0.01635 mol = 70.33 g/mol
That does not correspond to any metal.
Conclusion: the identity of the metallic element could be titanium.
Answer:
the mass number decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2
B i’m pretty sure, because the heavier the better it works
Although the data for the experiment was not provided, we can offer a generalized answer in that when performing an experiment to achieve absolute zero temperatures, the value will never match the exact value.
<h3 /><h3>What is absolute zero?</h3>
Absolute zero is the lower limit of temperature. It is considered the coldest possible temperature that can exist. However, any attempt to reach this temperature in a controlled environment has failed, <u>scientists do not think it is possible to recreate this </u><u>temperature</u><u>. </u>
Therefore, we can confirm that the value of the absolute zero experiments did not match the accepted value. If the hypothesis was that it would be difficult or impossible to achieve, then the data would support the hypothesis, otherwise, it would fail to do so.
In summary, absolute zero is a temperature that cannot be recreated in a lab, so the value in this experiment does not match the accepted value and there is <u>no further exploration </u>to be done on this matter.
