Answer: b. the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

Explanation:

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

In an atom, when neutrons or protons are lost or gains, it directly affects the mass number of an atom.

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

Thus the mass number of an element is equal to the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

What is the pressure in a 5.00 L tank with 49.00 grams of oxygen gas at 350 K? ___atm
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The right answer is "8.81 atm".

Explanation:

Given:

V = 5.00 L

Mass = 4900 g

MW = 32 g/mol

T = 350 K

Now,

Number of moles will be:

n = \frac{Mass}{MW}

   =\frac{49.00}{32}

   =1.53125 \ mole

By using the ideal gas equation, we get

⇒ PV=nRT

or,

⇒    P=\frac{nRT}{V}

By substituting the values, we get

           =\frac{1.53125\times 0.0821\times 350}{5.00}

           =\frac{44.1}{5.00}

           =8.81 \ atm

If I have 17 liters of gas at 67C and 88.89 atm, what will be the pressure of the gas if I raise the temperature to 94C and decr
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 140 atm

Explanation:

We use the gas formula, which results from the combination of the Boyle, Charles and Gay-Lussac laws. According to which at a constant mass, temperature, pressure and volume vary, keeping constant PV / T. We convert the unit Celsius into Kelvin:

0 ° C = 273K, 67 ° C = 273 + 67 = 340K; 94 ° C = 273 + 94 = 367K

P1xV1 /T1= P2x V2/T2

P2= ((P1xV1 /T1)xT2)/V2

P2=((88,89atm x 17L/340K)x367K)/12L= <em>135,927625 atm</em>
