Answer:

They are all the same = 8

Explanation:

Since the symbol of that atom is not give, we can infer from the given number the nature and kind of element we are dealing with.

The number 15.999 rounded up to 16 is the atomic weight of the atom also called the mass number.

Although not peculiar enough, we are certain that this atom is Oxygen.

 On the periodic table, elements are arranged based on their atomic numbers.

    Atomic number of oxygen = 8 = number of protons

For every neutral atom on the periodic table, the number of protons and electrons are the same

Atomic number of oxygen = number of protons = number of electrons = 8

 Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number = 16 - 8 = 8

Calculate the moles of solute dissolved in 4.2 dm3 of a 0.5 mol / dm3 solution.
Archy [21]

Answer:

Example

0.5 mol of sodium hydroxide is dissolved in 2 dm3 of water. Calculate the concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution formed.

Concentration =

Concentration = 0.25 mol/dm3

Volume units

Volumes used in concentration calculations must be in dm3, not in cm3. It is useful to know that 1 dm3 = 1000 cm3. This means:

divide by 1000 to convert from cm3 to dm3

multiply by 1000 to convert from dm3 to cm3

For example, 250 cm3 is 0.25 dm3 (250 ÷ 1000). It is often easiest to convert from cm3 to dm3 before continuing with a concentration calculation.

Question

100 cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid contains 0.02 mol of dissolved hydrogen chloride. Calculate the concentration of the acid in mol/dm3.

Reveal answer

Converting between units

The relative formula mass of the solute is used to convert between mol/dm3 and g/dm3:

to convert from mol/dm3 to g/dm3, multiply by the relative formula mass

to convert from g/dm3 to mol/dm3, divide by the relative formula mass

Remember: the molar mass is the Ar or Mr in grams per mol.

Example

Calculate the concentration of 0.1 mol/dm3 sodium hydroxide solution in g/dm3. (Mr of NaOH = 40)

Concentration = 0.1 × 40

= 4 g/dm3

Which out of two has stronger forces of attraction sugar or water very sort answer​
Marina CMI [18]

Sugar. It is solid and its atoms have less kinetic energy to overcome the bonding force. So, the bonding force is stronger than water, which is liquid and has more kinetic energy to overcome the bonding force of atoms. So, water has less strong force of attraction. Hence, sugar has stronger forces of attraction.
