In an atom of an element there are a fixed number of electrons. If the total mass of electrons in 1 mole (6.022 x 1023) of atoms

of a certain element is 18.65 mg, how many protons must there be in the nucleus of that atom? (mass of electron = 9.109 x 10–28 g).

Answer:

No. of protons = 34

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the number of electrons in one mole of the the element:

No. of electrons per mole = Total Mass of Electrons/Mass of 1 Electron

No. of electrons per mole = (18.65 x 10⁻³ g)/(9.109 x 10⁻²⁸ g)

No. of electrons per mole = 2.04 x 10²⁵ electrons/mol

Now, we calculate the no. of electrons in 1 atom:

No. of electrons per atom = No. of Electrons per mole/No. of atoms per mole

No. of electrons per atom = (2.04 x 10²⁵ electrons/mol)/(6.022 x 10²³ atoms/mol)

No. of electrons per atom = 34 electrons/atom

Since, the no. of protons in a pure element are equal to the number of electrons. Therefore,

<u>No. of protons = 34</u>

Which of the following is the best example of a closed system?
Marat540 [252]
Based on my information, this would be known to be a "green house" as this, would be as it would be a house known for planting, and etc. But the main part that I wanted to consider would be the fact that it would also be a "closed system" as you would be able to open and close this kind of machine.

Isopropanol major species present when dissolved in water
timofeeve [1]

Answer : Isopropanol molecules ( C₃H₈O) are the major species present when dissolved in water.

Explanation :

Compounds are of 2 types.

1) Ionic compounds : These are formed by the transfer of electrons from a metal to a non metal.

When ionic compounds are dissolved in water, they get separated into ions.

Therefore the major species present in case of an ionic compound are ions.

2) Molecular (Covalent) compounds: These are formed by sharing of electrons among 2 or more non metals.

Covalent compounds are further categorized as

a) Polar covalent : Polar covalent compounds partially dissociate to form ions.

Therefore the major species in case of polar covalent compounds are the undissociated molecules and ions.

b) Non polar covalent : Non polar covalent compounds are unable to dissociate and they remain in molecular form when dissolved. So the major species in case of a non polar compound are undissociated molecules only.

Isopropanol is a non polar covalent compound. As discussed above it will have undissociated isopropanol molecules as major species.

Hence Isopropanol molecules ( C₃H₈O) are the major species present when dissolved in water.
