What is the charge on an ion that contains 16 protons and 18 electrons?

1 answer:

6 0

16-18= -2 so it has a negative charge. Just subtract the electrons from the protons if you get a positive number it will have a positive charge and vice versa.

Aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce aqueous sodium chloride (NaCl) and liquid w

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

87.9 % is the percent yield of H₂O

Explanation:

This is the neutralization reaction. A base reacts with an acid to produce water and the correspondly ionic salt.

NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O

As we have the mass of the two reactants, we must determine the limiting reactant.

Let's convert to moles, the mass of each reactant. (mass / molar mass)

21.1 g / 36.45 g/mol = 0.579 moles of HCl

46.3 g / 40g/mol = 1.15 moles of NaOH

Ratio is 1:1, so it is obviously that the limiting reactant is the HCl. For 1.15 moles of NaOH, i need the same amount of acid, but I only have 0.579 moles

Let's work with the products now. Ratio is 1:1 again, so If I have 0.579 moles of acid, I can produce 0.579 moles of H₂O.

How many grams are 0.579 moles of water? We should find it out as this

mol . molar mass = mass → 0.579 mol . 18 g/mol = 10.4 g

We were told that the production of water was 9.17 g, so let's determine the percent yield as this:

(Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 =

(9.17 g / 10.4g ) . 100 = 87.9 %

Some fuel cells are powered by hydrogen. Scientists are looking into the decomposition of water (H2O) to make hydrogen fuel with

skad [1K]

A. Decomposing water requires a high activation energy.

Explanation:

In decomposing water to release hydrogen gas to make fuel cells, the process requires a very high activation energy.

2H₂O ⇆ 2H₂ + O₂

This is the overall reaction. O-H must be broken to release free hydrogen to produce hydrogen gas.

The O-H bond is a very strong force of attraction that requires a high activation energy to overcome.

The activation energy is the energy barrier that must be overcome before a reaction takes place.
The sun is a renewable source of energy.
Water decomposition produces useful oxygen gas needed by all life for cellular respiration.

What mass, in grams, of sodium sulfate is needed to make 230.5 g of a 3.5 % (m/m) aqueous solution of sodium sulfate?

andreev551 [17]

The percent concentration of a solution can be calculated from; mass of solute /mass of solution * 100. The mass of the solute here is 8.1 g.

<h3>What is concentration?</h3>

The term concentration refers to the amount of solute presnt in a solution. There are many ways of expressing concentration such as molarity, molality and percentage.

Here;

mass of solution = 230.5 g

Percent of solute = 3.5 %

3.5 = x/ 230.5 * 100

3.5 = 100x/230.5

230.5(3.5) = 100x

x = 230.5(3.5) /100

x = 8.1 g

How many molecules are in 0.0740 mol NH3?

Mariana [72]

Number of molecules NH₃ = 4.45 x 10²²

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

A mole is a number of particles(atoms, molecules, ions) in a substance

This refers to the atomic total of the 12 gr C-12 which is equal to 6.02.10²³, so 1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated :

N = n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = 6.02.10²³ = Avogadro's number

mol of NH₃ = n = 0.074

So the number of molecules :

$\tt N=n\times No\\\\N=0.0740\times 6.02\times 10^{23}\\\\N=4.45\times 10^{22}$
