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

Answer:17.955atm

Explanation:Pv=nrt

P= nrt/v

P= 7.25*0.08205*360/11.90

P= 214.1505/11.90

Data was collected by students in an acid base titration lab. They used 1.63 M Ca(OH)2(AQ)
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

3.8 M

Explanation:

Volume of acid used VA= 57.0 - 37.5 = 19.5 ml

Volume of base used VB= 67.8 - 45.0 = 22.8 ml

Equation of the reaction

2HNO3(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) --------> Ca(NO3)2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

Number of moles of acid NA= 2

Number of moles of base NB= 1

Concentration of acid CA= ???

Concentration of base CB= 1.63 M

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CAVANB = CBVBNA

CA= CBVBNA/VANB

CA= 1.63 × 22.8 × 2/ 19.5 × 1

CA= 3.8 M

HENCE THE MOLARITY OF THE ACID IS 3.8 M.
