Why doesnt the number of neutrons identify an element

Chemistry
1 answer:
Goryan [66]4 years ago
8 0

You look at the atomic mass.. The number of neutrons is different for different individual atoms of the same element, each atom is also known an isotope. Looking at a periodic table, the atomic mass listed is the average atomic mass for all isotopes of that element found in nature.

Assuming complete dissociation of the solute, how many grams of KNO3 must be added to 275 mL of water to produce a solution that
iragen [17]

Answer:

108.43 grams KNO₃

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the formula:

  • ΔT = Kf * b * i

Where

  • ΔT is the temperature difference (14.5 K)
  • Kf is the cryoscopic constant (1.86 K·m⁻¹)
  • b is the molality of the solution (moles KNO₃ per kg of water)
  • and<em> i</em> is the van't Hoff factor (2 for KNO₃)

We <u>solve for b</u>:

  • 14.5 K = 1.86 K·m⁻¹ * b * 2
  • b = 3.90 m

Using the given volume of water and its density (aprx. 1 g/mL) we <u>calculate the necessary moles of KNO₃</u>:

  • 275 mL water ≅ 275 g water
  • 275 g /1000 = 0.275 kg
  • moles KNO₃ = molality * kg water = 3.90 * 0.275
  • moles KNO₃ = 1.0725 moles KNO₃

Finally we <u>convert KNO₃ moles to grams</u>, using its molecular weight:

  • 1.0725 moles KNO₃ * 101.103 g/mol = 108.43 grams KNO₃

A one or two letter symbol indicating a particular element two words no spaces
Andreyy89

Answer:

The Symbols of elements is given by :

IUPAC : International Union Of Pure and Applied Chemistry .

Its is the Universally recognuised organisation which works on Chemical nomenclature and terminology.

Explanation:

According to IUPAC the elements are named according to mythological concept of country ,mineral , place , property and scientist.

Ex:Copper name comes from the old english word Cyprus.

Rules of Naming elements :

1. The first Alphabet of the element is always Capital.Example:-  

Sodium : Na  not ''na'

2. The second alphabet is always small .Example

Sodium : Na  not ''nA' or NA

3.For most of the elements ,The symbol of the element comes from the <u>first two words.</u>

Example : Hydrogen : H

Helium : He

Copper : Cu

Rules for naming elements having mass> 100

1. The names are derived directly from the atomic number .

Ex : 0 = nil    1= un    2=bi   3=tri

2. The name always ends with ''ium''

For example :

102 = Unnilbium
