Atoms of oxygen have a total of 8 electrons. Are these atoms stable, and why or why not? a.) Yes, because the Octet Rule says st

able atoms have 8 electrons. b.) No, because only atoms with 2 valence electrons are stable. c.) Yes, because oxygen is in the air we breathe and it doesn�t hurt us. d.) No, because the atoms have only 6 valence electrons, but need 8 for stability.

What is the mass sample of 0.0500 moles of zinc chloride ?
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

6.82g

0.59moles

Explanation:

1. What is the mass sample of 0.0500 moles of zinc chloride ?

Given parameters:

Number of moles ZnCl₂ = 0.05moles

Unknown:

Mass of the sample  =  ?

Solution:

To find the mass of a substance using the number of moles, it would be pertinent to understand what mole is.

A mole is a substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

It relates to the mass using the expression below;

                Mass of a substance  = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of  ZnCl₂;

        Atomic mass of Zn  = 65.4g/mol

                                   Cl = 35.5g/mol

Molar mass = 65.4 + 2(35.5)  = 136.4g/mole

Mass of a substance  = 0.05 x 136.4  = 6.82g

2. How many moles of potassium sulfide are in a 65.50g sample?

Given parameters:

Mass of K₂S  = 65.5g

Unknown:

Number of moles  = ?

Solution:

The number of moles of any substance is related to mass using the expression below;

              Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of K₂S  = 2(39) + 32  = 110g/mol

              Number of moles  = \frac{65.5}{110}   = 0.59moles

What makes the periodic table arrangement so unique and useful?​
Zepler [3.9K]
Elements are ordered from left to right, increasing atomic number as they go. The periodic table allows us to find out and predict things about elements that haven’t been discovered yet!

Hey bud !
You were close congrats !
the only problem i saw was the units part at the end.
remember volume is 3 dimensional
length width and height
so it is m^3

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentaoxide has an activation energy of 102 kj/mol and \delta ? h°rxn = + 55 kj/mol. what is the
posledela
A positive cahnge of enthalpy, ΔH rxn = + 55 kJ/mol, for the forward reaction means that the reaction is endothermic, i.e. the reactants absorb energy and the products are higher in energy.

Activation energy is the difference in the energy level of the reactants and the peak in the potential energy diagram (the energy of the transition state).

For an endothermic reaction, the products will be closer in energy to the transition state than what the reactans will be; so, the activation energy of the reversed reaction is lower than the activation energy of the forward reaction.

Activation energy of reverse and forward reactions is related by:

Activation energy of reverse rxn = Activation energy of forward rxn - ΔH rxn

=> Activiation energy of reverse rxn = 102 kJ/mol - 55 kJ/mol = 47 kJ/mol

Answer: 47 kJ/mol
