Which characteristics are common to the three isotopes of hydrogen?

allsm [11]

D should be the correct answer. isotopes are atoms that have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different atomic masses (number of protons and neutrons). isotopes also have the same number of electrons since atoms need to have equal numbers of protons and electrons to not be considered ions. Since the number of protons determines the chemical properties of the atom, we can say that all isotopes have the same chemical properties due to the fact that all isotopes have the same atomic number.

I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

Free-energy change, ΔG∘, is related to cell potential, E∘, by the equationΔG∘=−nFE∘where n is the number of moles of electrons t

mart [117]

Answer:

a) $\Delta G=372490 J$

b) $\Delta G=-568614 J$

Explanation:

a) The reaction:

$Mg(s) +Fe^{2+}(aq) \longrightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq) + Fe(s)$

The free-energy expression:

$\Delta G=-n*F*E$

$E=E_{red}-E_{ox]$

The element wich is reduced is the Fe and the one that oxidates is the Mg:

$-0.44V=E_{red}-(-2.37V)=1.93V$

The electrons transfered (n) in this reaction are 2, so:

$\Delta G=-2mol*96500 C/mol * 1.93 V$

$\Delta G=-372490 J$

b) If you have values of enthalpy and enthropy you can calculate the free-energy by:

$\Delta G=\Delta H - T* \Delta S$

with T in Kelvin

$\Delta G=-675 kJ*\frac{1000J}{kJ} - 298K*-357 J/K$

$\Delta G=-568614 J$

Part A

Roman55 [17]

These are two questions and two answers

Question 1.

Answer:

7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) m = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg

b) λ = 3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

c) c = 3.00 10⁸ m/s

d) s = ?

2) Formula:

The wavelength (λ), the speed (s), and the mass (m) of the particles are reltated by the Einstein-Planck's equation:

λ = h / (m.s)

h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

3) Solution:

Solve for s:

s = h / (m.λ)

Substitute:

s = 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg × 3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m) = 2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s

To express the speed relative to the speed of light, divide by c = 3.00 10⁸ m/s

s = 2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s / 3.00 10⁸ m/s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³

Answer: s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c

Question 2.

Answer:

2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) m = 45.9 g (0.0459 kg)

b) s = 70.0 m/s

b) λ = ?

2) Formula:

Macroscopic matter follows the same Einstein-Planck's equation, but the wavelength is so small that cannot be detected:

λ = h / (m.s)

h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

3) Solution:

λ = h / (m.s)

Substitute:

λ = 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 0.0459 kg × 70.0 m/s) = 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m

As you see, that is tiny number and explains why the wave nature of the golf ball is undetectable.

Answer: 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.
