I think you forgot to give the options along with the question. I am answering the question based on my knowledge and research.All scientific theories <span>must be based on careful and rational examinations of the facts. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has actually come to your help.</span>
Answer:
The atomic number of silicon is 14 while atomic mass of carbon is 14.
Explanation:
An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.
All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.
In given atoms ¹⁴₆C and ²⁸₁₄Si the atomic mass of carbon is 14 while the atomic number of silicon is 14. It means silicon has 14 electrons or protons while carbon has 6 protons or electrons because its atomic number is 6. Carbon has 6 protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus while silicon has 14 protons and 14 neutrons in its nucleus.
In C:
Number of neutrons + protons = 8 + 6 = 14 amu (mass number)
Number of electrons = 6
In Si:
Number of neutrons + protons = 14 + 14 = 28 amu (mass number)
Number of electrons = 14
Here's the equation:
<span>Fe2 O3 + 2Al → 2Fe + Al2 O3
</span>
Here's the question.
What mass of Al will react with 150g of Fe2 O3?
<span>In every 2 moles Al you need 1 mole Fe2O3 </span>
<span>moles = mass / molar mass </span>
<span>moles Fe2O3 = 150 g / 159.69 g/mol </span>
<span>= 0.9393 moles </span>
<span>moles Al needed = 2 x moles Fe2O3 </span>
<span>= 2 x 0.9393 mol </span>
<span>= 1.879 moles Al needed </span>
<span>mass = molar mass x moles </span>
<span>mass Al = 26.98 g/mol x 1.879 mol </span>
<span>= 50.69 g </span>
<span>= 51 g (2 sig figs)
</span>
So the <span>mass of Al that will react with 150g of Fe2 O3 is 51 grams.</span>
<span>because it is a pattern; airgo cycle</span>
