An atom has 2 protons in its nucleus . Which of the following must be true for this atom to have no net electrical charge

1 answer:

7 0

If an atom has 2 protons, then it must also have 2 electrons for there to be no charge. An extra electron will cause for you to have a negative charge, and if you have more protons than electrons, then you will have a positive charge. :)

Use the "x is small" approximation to find the concentration of the products in the following reaction which initially contains

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Concentration of product at equilibrium ;

$[H^+]=0.0000229 M$

$[CN^-]=0.0000229 M$

Explanation:

$HCN(aq)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq) + CN^-(aq)$

initially

0.85 M 0 0

(0.85-x)M x x

The equilibrium constant of reaction = $K_c= 6.17\times 10^{-10}$

The expression of an equilibrium cannot can be written as:

$K_c=\frac{[H^+][CN^-]}{[HCN]}$

$6.17\times 10^{-10}=\frac{x\times x}{(0.85-x)}$

Solving for x:

x = 0.0000229

Concentration of product at equilibrium ;

$[H^+]=0.0000229 M$

$[CN^-]=0.0000229 M$

When a 5.00-g metal piece, A, was immersed in 38.0 mL of water, the water level rose to 50.0 mL. Similarly, when a 5.00-g metal

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

A is denser than B as it's volume for the same mass is smaller.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we first need to take into account that the density of each metal A and B is computed by dividing the mass over the volume of each metal which is actually computed by substracting the volume of water from the volume of the water and the solid:

$V_A=50.0mL-38.0mL=12.0mL\\\\V_B=60.0mL-38.0mL=22.0mL$
