How to find the number of neutrons in an atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
7 0

So, to determine the number of neutrons in atom, we only have to subtract the number of protons from the mass number. Take note that the nucleus of an atom is composed of protons and neutrons. And the number of particles present in the nucleus is referred as mass number (Also, called as atomic mass).

How many moles of oxygen are needed to react with 87 grams of aluminum
labwork [276]

Answer:

2.4 moles of oxygen are needed to react with 87 g of aluminium.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

4Al(s)  + 3O₂(l)   → 2AlO₃(s)

Given data:

Mass of aluminium = 87 g

Moles of oxygen needed = ?

Solution:

Moles of aluminium:

Number of moles of aluminium= Mass/ molar mass

Number of moles of aluminium= 87 g/ 27 g/mol

Number of moles of aluminium= 3.2 mol

Now we will compare the moles of aluminium with oxygen.

                              Al         :         O₂

                               4          :         3

                               3.2       :         3/4×3.2 = 2.4 mol

2.4 moles of oxygen are needed to react with 87 g of aluminium.

Complete the sentences about heme. Some terms will not be used. The prosthetic group of hemoglobin and myoglobin is . The organi
nevsk [136]

Explanation:

Haemoglobin consists of heme unit which is comprised of an <u>Fe^{2+}</u> and porphyrin ring. The ring has four pyrrole molecules which are linked to the iron ion. In oxyhaemoglobin, the iron has coordinates with four nitrogen atoms and one to the F8 histidine residue and the sixth one to the oxygen. In deoxyhaemoglobin, the ion is displaced out of the ring by 0.4 Å.

The prosthetic group of hemoglobin and myoglobin is - <u>Heme</u>

The organic ring component of heme is - <u>Porphyrin</u>

Under normal conditions, the central atom of heme is - <u>Fe^{2+}</u>

In <u>deoxyhemoglobin</u> , the central iron atom is displaced 0.4 Å out of the plane of the porphyrin ring system.

The central atom has <u>six</u> bonds: <u>four</u> to nitrogen atoms in the porphyrin, one to a <u>histidine</u> residue, and one to oxygen.
