Answer:

Explanation:

Subatomic particles are the structures of matter that are smaller than the atom, and that are part of it and determine its properties. These particles can be of two types: compound and elementary, that is, divisible (composed of other subatomic particles) and indivisible respectively.

The atom is made up of three stable particles: electron, proton and neutron and these particles are in turn composed of others, still smaller. So, currently the existence of the following subatomic particles is known, in addition to the three previously mentioned:

  • Boson
  • Positron
  • Fermion
  • Neutrino
  • Hadron
  • Lepton
  • Quark
  • Meson

Due to their low stability and size, these particles are very difficult to study and discover.

Calculate the number of moles of magnesium, chlorine, and oxygen atoms in 4.50 moles of magnesium perchlorate, mg(clo4)2. expres
Eva8 [605]
<span>4.50, 9.00, 36.00 First, count the number of atoms of each element in a single molecule of Mg(ClO4)2. Mg = 1 atom Cl = 1 * 2 = 2 atoms O = 4 * 2 = 8 atoms Now multiply the number of atoms of each element per molecule of the compound by the number of moles of the compound. So Mg = 1 * 4.50 = 4.50 Cl = 2 * 4.50 = 9.00 O = 8 * 4.50 = 36.00 So the answer is 4.50, 9.00, 36.00</span>

At 14,000 ft elevation the air pressure drops to 0.59 atm. Assume you take a 1L sample of air at this altitude and compare it to
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

There are 0.1125 g of O₂ less in 1 L of air at 14,000 ft than in 1 L of air at sea level.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the ideal gas law:

PV=nRT

Where P is pressure (in atm), V is volume (in L), n is the number of moles, T is temperature (in K), and R is a constant (0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹)

Now we calculate the number of moles of air in 1 L at sea level (this means with P=1atm):

1 atm * 1 L = n₁ * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 298 K

n₁=0.04092 moles

Now we calculate n₂, the number of moles of air in L at an 14,000 ft elevation, this means with P = 0.59 atm:

0.59 atm * 1 L = n₂ * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 298 K

n₂=0.02414 moles

In order to calculate the difference in O₂, we substract n₂ from n₁:

0.04092 mol - 0.02414 mol = 0.01678 mol

Keep in mind that these 0.01678 moles are of air, which means that we have to look up in literature the content of O₂ in air (20.95%), and then use the molecular weight to calculate the grams of O₂ in 20.95% of 0.01678 moles:

0.01678mol*\frac{20.95}{100} *32\frac{g}{mol} =0.1125 gO_{2}

Draw structures from the following names, and determine which compounds are optically active:(b) 3-chloro-2,2,5-trimethylhexane
inn [45]

The given compound 3-chloro-2,2,5-trimethylhexane is an optically active compound .

Because this compound does not have plane of symmetry (POS) and center  of symmetry (COS) i.e. does not have di-symmetry . And also forms non superimposable mirror image . the compound is optically active .

It has  chiral center.

Here the chiral carbon has 4 distinct groups such as : chlorine , hydrogen , 2-methylpropyl , tertbutyl .

<h3>What is di-symmetry?</h3>

Di-symmetry is that which have no center of symmetry and plane of symmetry and alternate axis of symmetry .

<h3>Chiral center :</h3>

Have Sp3 hybridized center (4sigma bond ) .

4 distinct group  is attached to the chiral atom. form non -superimposable mirror image .

<h3>What is optical isomerism ?</h3>

Same molecular formula and same structural formula . also have same physical and chemical properties .

They differ in their behavior towards plane polarized light (ppl) .

Use the description below to answer the following question: which of the following statements best describes how Atom X and Atom
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The number of neutrons is obtain through the difference of the mass number and the number of electrons

Explanation:

By looking at the periodic table, you will see that Fluorine has 9 protons.

Since the number of electrons equal the number of protons, Fluorine has 9 electrons as well.

Meanwhile, it's mass number of 19, minus 10 neutrons, gives you 9 protons or electrons. Hence, the atom would be Fluorine.

As for the atomic number, it is obtainable through the periodic table itself.
