6 0

Answer:

The correct option is: c. 15

Explanation:

Phosphorous is a chemical element which belongs to the group 15 of the periodic table and has atomic number 15. It is a highly reactive non-metal of the p-group.  

Since, atomic number of an atom is the number of electrons and number of protons for neutral atoms.

So, the number of protons = number of electrons = 15

The atomic mass is obtained by adding the number of neutrons and the protons.

So, number of neutrons + number of protons = 30

So, number of neutrons + 15 = 30

Therefore, the number of neutrons in ³⁰P = 15

Calculate the volume in milliliters of a 0.420mol / L barlum chlorate solution that contains 25.0 g of barium chlorate (Ba(ClO 3
Pachacha [2.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of solution, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

Given mass of barium chlorate = 25.0 g

Molar mass of barium chlorate = 304.23 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 0.420 mol/L

Volume of solution = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.420mol/L=\frac{25.0\times 1000}{304.23\times V}\\\\V=\frac{25.0\times 1000}{304.23\times 0.420}=195.65mL

Hence, the volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL

Sindrei [870]

H_3PO_32H_3PO_32H_3PO_3P_2O_3Answer:

B

Explanation:

This question is about stoichiometry. From the balanced equation P_2O_3 + 3H_2O⇒2H_3PO_3, we see that 3 moles of water is needed to react with 1 mole of P_2O_3.

This means that, to fully react 3.62 moles of P_2O_3, we would need 3*3.62 or  10.86 moles of water. However, we only have 6.31 moles, so water is the limiting reactant.

Since 3 moles of water react with 1 mole of P_2O_3, 6.31 moles of water can fully react with 6.31÷3 or 2.1033 moles of P_2O_3.

From the balanced equation, we see that every mole of P_2O_3 reacted gets you 2 moles of 2H_3PO_3. Therefore, 2.1033 moles of P_2O_3 would give you approximately 4.21 moles of H_3PO_3.
