A student submits the following work on the mass number, but he has made a few mistakes. Select the sentences that are incorrect

.
Calculating the mass number for an atom requires that we know the atomic number and the number of protons in the atom’s nucleus. The mass number then gives us the average weight of atoms of a given element. Specifically, these units are calibrated by setting the mass number for carbon-12 as 12 atomic mass units. Neutrons and protons have the same masses. However, as long as the number of protons equals the number of neutrons, the values balance out and we always obtain a whole number for the mass number.

How many grams of sulfur are needed to react completely with 246 g of mercury to form hgs?
iren [92.7K]

The reaction between mercury (Hg) and sulfur (S) to form HgS is:

Hg + S ------------- HgS

Therefore: 1 mole of Hg reacts with 1 mole of S to form 1 mole of HgS

The given mass of Hg = 246 g

Atomic mass of Hg = 200.59 g/mol

# moles of Hg = 246 g/ 200.59 gmol-1 = 1.226 moles

Based on the reaction stoichiometry,

# moles of S that would react = 1.226 moles

Atomic mass of S = 32 g/mol

Therefore, mass of S = 1.226 moles*32 g/mole = 39.23 g

39.2 g of sulfur would be needed to react completely with 246 g of Hg to produce HgS

Some nitrogen is held in a 2.00-L tank at a pressure of 3.00 atm. The tank is connected to a 5.00-L tank that is completely empt
leva [86]

Answer:

0.857 atm

Explanation:

The nitrogen stops owing when it fulfills both of the tanks (the gas molecules intend to fulfill all the space they are). So the tanks will have the same pressure, and the final volume will be the volume of the two tanks.

For Boyle's law:

P1*V1 = P2*V2

Where P1 is the initial pressure (3.00 atm), V1 is the initial volume(2.00 L), P2 is the final pressure, and V2 is the final volume (2.00 + 5.00 = 7.00 L).

3.00*2.00 = P2*7.00

7.00P2 = 6.00

P2 = 0.857 atm

Find the volume of 200g of benzene, if the density of benzene is 0.88 g/mL.
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

<h2>227.27 mL</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density} \\

From the question we have

volume =  \frac{200}{0.88}  \\  = 227.2727...

We have the final answer as

<h3>227.27 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
