3 0

Answer: No charge (0)

Explanation:

The atom has a proton of 22 and electron number of 19. This means the element has lost 3 electrons. Therefore, the net charge is +3.

So, if this atom gains 3 more electrons, the net charge would be zero (neutral).

The total number of electron would now be 22 which is the same as the proton number.

This implies the atom is now in an unreacted state or ground state.

A sample of a compound contains 0.300 mol of carbon and 1.20 mol of hydrogen. What is the empirical formula of the comp

Margarita [4]

Answer:

CH4

Explanation:

The number of moles of carbon and hydrogen has been given as follows:

C = 0.300 mol

H = 1.20 mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (0.300)

C = 0.300 ÷ 0.300 = 1

H = 1.20 ÷ 0.300 = 4

The empirical ratio of Carbon and Hydrogen is 1:4, hence, the empirical formula is CH4

Ethylene produced by fermentation has a specific gravity of 0.787 at 25 degree Celsius. What is the volume of 125g of ethanol at

WITCHER [35]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

Specific gravity is given by the formula:

$\text{Specific gravity}=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{\text{Density of water}}$

We are given:

Density of water = 0.997 g/mL

Specific gravity of ethanol = 0.787

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.787=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{0.997g/mL}\\\\\text{Density of a substance}=(0.787\times 0.997g/mL)=0.784g/mL$

Density is defined as the ratio of mass and volume of a substance.

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$ ......(1)

Given values:

Mass of ethanol = 125 g

Density of ethanol = 0.784 g/mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Volume of ethanol}=\frac{125g}{0.784g/mL}=159.44mL$

Hence, the volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL
