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.

Classify each salt as acidic, basic, or neutral? -nh4cl -ca(no32
vichka [17]
The pH of salt depends on the component acid and base that comprise them. For example, if the salt is made up of strong acid and weak base then, the salt is acidic. If the salt is formed from strong base and weak acid then, the salt is basic. For this item, NH4Cl is acidic and also Ca(NO3)2 is acidic.

The monomer of poly(vinyl chloride) has the formula C2H3Cl. If there are 1,565 repeat units in a single chain of the polymer, wh
monitta

Answer:

\large \boxed{9.780 \times 10^{4}\text{ u}}

Explanation:

The molecular mass of a monomer unit is:

C₂H₃Cl = 2×12.01 + 3×1.008 + 35.45 = 24.02 + 3.024 + 35.45 = 62.494 u

For 1565 units,

\text{Molecular mass} = \text{1565 units} \times \dfrac{\text{62.494 u}}{\text{1 unit }} = \mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}\\\\\text{The molecular mass of the chain is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}}$}

You need to make 10 mL of 2 mg/ml solution of protein and you have 25 mg/mL solution. How much protein solution and water do you
meriva

Answer:

0.8 mL of protein solution, 9.2 mL of water

Explanation:

The dilution equation can be used to relate the concentration C₁ and volume V₁ of the stock/undiluted solution to the concentration C₂ and volume V₂ of the diluted solution:

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

We would like to calculate the value for V₁, the volume of the inital solution that we need to dilute to make the required solution.

V₁ = (C₂V₂) / C₁ = (2mg/mL x 10mL) / (25 mg/mL) = 0.8 mL

Thus, a volume of 0.8 mL of protein solution should be diluted with enough water to bring the total volume to 10 mL. The amount of water needed is:

(10 mL - 0.8 mL) = 9.2 mL
