All are true except the statement that ions are formed by changing the number protons in an atom’s nucleus.

A neutral atom contains the same number of protons (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge).

If there are more electrons than protons, the atom becomes a negative ion.

If there are fewer electrons than protons, the atom becomes a positive ion.

The protons are in the nucleus, where we can’t easily get at them. The electrons are outside the nucleus, so other chemicals can easily get at them and either remove them or add to their number.

Metals have only a few valence electrons, so it is fairly easy to remove them and form positive ions.

What are four chemical and physical properties of phosphorus?

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Properties: The melting point of phosphorus (white) is 44.1°C, boiling point (white) is 280°C, specific gravity (white) is 1.82, (red) 2.20, (black) 2.25-2.69, with a valence of 3 or 5. There are four allotropic forms of phosphorus: two forms of white (or yellow), red, and black (or violet).Oct 7, 2019

A solution of pH 5 is diluted 100 times. Find the pH of the resulting solution.

liq [111]

First, we calculate of the concentration of the H+ ions in the solution from the pH given. Then, calculate the new concentration after dilution. Calculation are as follows:

pH = -log[H+]
5 = -log[H+]
[H+] = 1 x 10^-5 M

M1V1 = M2V2
1 x 10^-5 M (V1) = M2(100V1)
M2 = 1 x 10^-7

pH = -log[1 x 10^-7]
pH = 7

I need help with 1,2,3, and 4

Schach [20]

Answer:

Problem 1: 1.85atm

Problem 2: 110mL

Problem 3: 290 mL

Problem 4: 1.14 atm

Explanation:

Problem 1

1. Data

a) P₁ = 3.25atm

b) V₁ = 755mL

c) P₂ = ?

d) V₂ = 1325 mL

r) T = 65ºC

2. Formula

Since the temeperature is constant you can use Boyle's law for idial gases:

$PV=constant\\\\P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

3. Solution

Solve, substitute and compute:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\P_2=P_1V_1/V_2$

$P_2=3.25atm\times755mL/1325mL=1.85atm$

Problem 2

1. Data

a) V₁ = 125 mL

b) P₁ = 548mmHg

c) P₁ = 625mmHg

d) V₂ = ?

2. Formula

You assume that the temperature does not change, and then can use Boyl'es law again.

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

3. Solution

This time, solve for V₂:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\V_2=P_1V_1/P_2$

Substitute and compute:

$V_2=548mmHg\times 125mL/625mmHg=109.6mL$

You must round to 3 significant figures:

$V_2=110mL$

Problem 3

1. Data

a) V₁ = 285mL

b) T₁ = 25ºC

c) V₂ = ?

d) T₂ = 35ºC

2. Formula

At constant pressure, Charle's law states that volume and temperature are inversely related:

$V/T=constant\\\\\\\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}$

The temperatures must be in absolute scale.

3. Solution

a) Convert the temperatures to kelvins:

T₁ = 25 + 273.15K = 298.15K

T₂ = 35 + 273.15K = 308.15K

b) Substitute in the formula, solve for V₂, and compute:

$\dfrac{V_1}{T_1`}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}\\\\\\\\\dfrac{285mL}{298.15K}=\dfrac{V_2}{308.15K}\\\\\\V_2=308.15K\times285mL/298.15K=294.6ml$

You must round to two significant figures: 290 ml

Problem 4

1. Data

a) P = 865mmHg

b) Convert to atm

2. Formula

You must use a conversion factor.

1 atm = 760 mmHg

Divide both sides by 760 mmHg

$\dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}=\dfrac{760mmHg}{760mmHg}\\\\\\1=\dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}$

3. Solution

Multiply 865 mmHg by the conversion factor:

$865mmHg\times \dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}=1.14atm\leftarrow answer$
