Chemistry

Answer: An atomic number represent protons in an atom.

Explanation:

An atom consists of electrons, protons, and neutrons. The protons and neutrons are present inside the nucleus of an atom whereas the electrons revolve around the nucleus of an atom.

The number of protons in an atom represents the atomic number of that particular atom. Further, this atomic number determines the place of each atom in the periodic table and its chemical properties.

For example, the mass number of sodium atom is 23 that is number of protons and neutrons. The atomic number of sodium is 11 that means there are 11 protons. The number of neutrons will be 23 - 11 = 12.

Which structure is located between the auricle and the eardrum? O stirrup O ear canal O auditory nerve Ocochlea​
Damm [24]

Answer:

The structure that is located between the auricle and the eardrum is the ear canal.

Explanation:

The ear canal, or external ear canal, is a a tubular hole about 30 mm long that runs from the auricle to the eardrum, forming part of the external ear.

Its function is to conduct sound, in the form of vibrations, from the outside to the eardrum. It also has the function of producing a viscous secretion called cerumen, capable of trapping dust particles and small foreign bodies.

Other options are not correct because:

  • <em>Stirrup is located in the middle ear, along with the anvil and hammer. </em>
  • <em>Cochlea is in the inner ear and continues with the auditory nerve.</em>

What is the osmotic pressure of a 100 ml of toluene solution that contains a total of 0.005 moles of a polymer dissolved in it a
allsm [11]

Osmotic pressure is the pressure that would have to be applied to a pure solvent to prevent it from passing into a given solution by osmosis.

That can be mathematical computed from the expression:

Osmotic pressure=C×R×T

Where,

C= Concentration

R=Gas constant

T=Temperature

Concentration=Number of moles of solute/Volume(L)

=0.005*1000/100

=0.05

R= 0.08206 atm L/mol K

T=25+273

=298

Osmotic pressure= 0.05×0.08206×298

=1.2 atm

The molar heat of fusion of platinum (Pt) is 4.700 kcal/mol. How much heat must be added to 85.5 g of solid platinum at its melt
Andre45 [30]
The heat required to completely melt the given substance, platinum, we just have to convert first the given mass in mole and multiply the answer to its molar heat of fusion.. 
                              Hf  = mass x (1/molar mass) x molar heat of fusion
                            Hf = (85.5 g) x (1 mole/195.08 g) x 4.70 kcal/mol
                                   Hf = 2.06 kcal
