Answer: option A) True

Explanation:

Joseph Proust is the founder of the Law of Definite proportion. This law states that two elements will always combine together to form a chemical compound and this will be in the same proportion by mass.

For Example: 2 moles of Hydrogen (H2) ALWAYS combine with 1 atom of Oxygen (O) to yield water (H2O)

So, the answer is True

What mass of NH3 can be made from 35.0g of N2?

egoroff_w [7]

Formation of ammonia by nitrogen and hydrogen is habers process wher 28g N2 results in formation of 34g NH3
so 35g N2 will form 34*35/28=42.5g NH3 where it given that reaction takes place in excess of H2
N2+3H2 gives 2NH3

What is true of neutrons?

Marrrta [24]

Neutron, neutral subatomic particle that is a constituent of every atomic nucleus except ordinary hydrogen. It has no electric charge and a rest mass equal to 1.67493 × 10−27 kg—marginally greater than that of the proton but nearly 1,839 times greater than that of the electron.

You are given a cube of lead that is 1.000 cm on each side. The density of lead is 11.35. How many atoms of lead are in the samp

aliya0001 [1]

11.35 g atoms of lead are in the sample.

What does density mean?

The density of an area refers to the quantity of things—which may include people, animals, plants, or objects—there are in it.
Divide the number of objects by the area's measurement to determine density.
A country's population density is calculated by dividing its total population by its area, expressed in square kilometers or miles.

We can calculate the volume of the cube by cubing the side of the cube.

Volume of cube = ( 1.000 cm)³

= 1.000 cm³

We can now determine the amount of lead in the cube by multiplying by the density. Because we know we have a 1.000 cubic centimeter and that lead has a density of 11.35 grams per cubic centimeter, we have 11.35 grams of lead.

= ( 1.000 cm³) ( 11.35 $\frac{g}{cm^{3} }$ )

= 11.35 g

How do you do these?

Agata [3.3K]

Solve these problems like weighted averages:

The first one:

Multiply the masses (isotope numbers) by the decimal form of the percentage. Add them

0.076 (6) + 0.924 (7) = 6.924

The second one:

0.2 (10) + 0.8 (11) = 10.8

If you think about it, these answers make sense. 6.924 is much closer to 7 than to 6 (since there's a lot more lithium-7 than there is lithium-6). 10.8 is closer to 11 than to 10.
