Answer:

                      An atom of ¹¹⁸Xe contains 64 neutrons.

Explanation:

Number of Protons:

            The number of protons present in any atom are equal to the atomic number of that particular atom. Hence, as the atomic number of Xenon is 54 therefore, it contains 54 protons.

Number Neutrons:

            The number of neutrons present in atom are calculated as,

                              # of Neutrons  =  Atomic Mass - # of protons

As given,

                               Atomic Mass  =  118

                               # of Protons  =  54

So,

                               # of Neutrons  =  118 - 54

                               # of Neutrons  =  64

44. (a) N2O3 (b) SF4 (c) AlCl3 (d) Li2CO3 46. H Br δ+ δ− 48. The metallic potassium atoms lose one electron and form +1 cations, and the nonmetallic fluorine atoms gain one electron and form –1 anions. K → K+ + e– 19p/19e– 19p/18e– F + e– → F– 9p/9e– 9p/10e– The ionic bonds are the attractions between K+ cations and F– anions. 50. See Figure 3.6. 52. (a) covalent…nonmetal-nonmetal (b) ionic…metal-nonmetal 54. (a) all nonmetallic atoms - molecular (b) metal-nonmetal - ionic 56. (a) 7 (b) 4 58. Each of the following answers is based on the assumption that nonmetallic atoms tend to form covalent bonds in order to get an octet (8) of electrons around each atom, like the very stable noble gases (other than helium). Covalent bonds (represented by lines in Lewis structures) and lone pairs each contribute two electrons to the octet. (a) oxygen, O If oxygen atoms form two covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons around them. Water is an example: H O H (b) fluorine, F If fluorine atoms form one covalent bond, they will have an octet of electrons around them. Hydrogen fluoride, HF, is an example: H F (c) carbon, C If carbon atoms form four covalent bonds, they will have an octet of electrons around them. Methane, CH4, is an example: H H H H C (d) phosphorus, P If phosphorus atoms form three covalent bonds, they will have an octet

What is the mass of solid NH4Cl formed when 75.5g of NH3 is mixed with an equal mass of HCl? What is the volume of the gas remai
taurus [48]

Answer:The volume of the remaining gas that is ammonia is 23.85 L.

Explanation:

NH_3(g)+HCl(g)\rightarrow NH_4Cl(s)

Moles of NH_3=\frac{\text{mass of} NH_3}{\text{Molar mass of}NH_3}=\frac{75.5 g}{17.03 g/mol}=4.43 mole

Moles of HCl of gas = \frac{\text{mass of} HCl}{\text{Molar mass of}HCl}=\frac{75.5 g}{36.5 g/mol}=2.06 mol

According to reaction 1 mole of HCl reacts with 1 mol of NH_3 then 2.06 moles of HCl will react with = 2.06 moles of NH_3

Moles left of ammonia left = 4.43 - 2.06 = 2.36 moles

Volume of the gas will be given by Ideal gas equation: PV=nRT

Pressure = 752 mmHg = 752 × 0.0031 atm = 2.33 atm

R = 0.08026 L atm/K mol

V = ? , n = number of moles of ammonia

Temperature = 14 °C = 14 + 273 K = 287 K(0°C = 273K)

V=\frac{2.36 mol\times 0.08206 L atm/K mol\times 287 K}{2.33 atm}=23.85 L

The volume of the remaining gas that is ammonia is 23.85 L.
