If an isotope of an element has 40 neutrons and a mass number of 79, how many electrons must it have?

Chemistry

5 0

Answer: 39 electrons

Explanation: Subtract 79 by 40 to get the atomic number (amount of protons) which is 39. The number of electrons must be the same as the number of protons if it's not an ionic compound so the amount of electrons is the same amount of protons.

For all of the following questions 20.00 mL of 0.200 M HBr is titrated with 0.200 M KOH.
HACTEHA [7]

Answer :

The concentration of H^+ before any titrant added to our starting material is 0.200 M.

The pH based on this H^+ ion concentration is 0.698

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the concentration of H^+ before any titrant is added to our starting material.

As we are given:

Concentration of HBr = 0.200 M

As we know that the HBr is a strong acid that dissociates complete to give hydrogen ion H^+ and bromide ion Br^-.

As, 1 M of HBr dissociates to give 1 M of H^+

So, 0.200 M of HBr dissociates to give 0.200 M of H^+

Thus, the concentration of H^+ before any titrant added to our starting material is 0.200 M.

Now we have to calculate the pH based on this H^+ ion concentration.

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (0.200)

pH=0.698

Thus, the pH based on this H^+ ion concentration is 0.698

What mass of K2SO4 would you measure out to prepare 550 ml of a 0.76 M solution
Nikolay [14]
The molecular weight of K2SO4 is 174.26 g/mole. The mass of K2SO4 required to make this solution is calculated in the following way. 
550mL * (0.76mole/1000mL) * (174.26g/mole) = 72.84gram

Dmitrij [34]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.
