4. Does an atom of an element always have the same number of neutrons as other atoms of the same

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

No. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different atomic masses (due to the different number of neutrons)

For example, carbon exists as carbon-12 and carbon-14, which both have 6 protons but have 6 and 8 neutrons respectively.

What is the volume of stank of nitrogen that contains 17 moles of nitrogen at 34 C under 12,000Pa?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

3626.76dm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of Nitrogen in tank = 17moles

Temperature of the gas = 34°C

Pressure on the gas = 12000Pa

Unkown:

Volume of the tank, V =?

Converting the parameters to workable units:

We take the temperature from °C to Kelvin

K = 273 +  °C  = 273 + 34 = 307k

Taking the pressure in Pa to atm:

101325Pa = 1atm

12000Pa = 0.118atm

Solution:

To solve this problem, we employ the use of the ideal gas equation. The ideal gas law combines three gas laws which are the Boyle's law, Charles's law and the Avogadro's law.

            It is expressed as PV = nRT

The unknown is the Volume and we make it the subject of the formula

             V = \frac{nRT}{P}

Where R is called the gas constant and it is given as 0.082atmdm³mol⁻¹K⁻¹

Therefore  V = \frac{17 x 0.082 x 307 }{0.118} = 3626.76dm³

put the contributions to the understanding of the atomic structure in order from most recent at the top to the earliest at the b
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

From Top to Bottom:

- Democritus coming up with the concept of an atom

- Dalton discovering that atoms are the smallest part of an element

- Rutherford discovering the nucleus of an atom

- Thomson discovering electrons

- Bohr modeling electrons orbiting the nucleus

- Schrodinger modeling electrons in the electron cloud

Explanation:

The best way to think about this is from the inside out. Democrats (who lived long before any of the other scientists mentioned) was the one who thought of the idea of the atom. - Therefore, this must be first because all other choices are elaborations on the idea that atoms exist. Next must be Dalton. Dalton saw atoms as "cannonballs" if you will; a solid mass. So then after that, Rutherford and his gold foil experiment (he discovered that some rays he shot through gold foil were deflected back; ie the existence of concentrated areas in an atom, ie the nucleus). Then we get into the information on electrons. We must start with discovery (Thomson). Heres where it gets complicated. Electrons don't <em>actually </em>orbit the nucleus, they exist in electron clouds. So it would be Bohr, who came up with the idea that electron exist outside the nucleus, then Schrodinger, who elaborated on Bohr's theory. Hope this helps!

6. Which of the following statements correctly describes what happens to the diaphragm during an
Crank
Answer is B.

As the diaphragm contracts and flattens, it increases the volume of the thorax where the lungs are located. This results in a decrease in pressure (Boyle’s Law, if you know it) that creates a pressure gradient from outside to inside. This is what causes air to move into the lungs.

dsp73

Churning or mixing food.

The stomach is a muscular sac that lies between theesophagus and thesmall intestine in the upper abdomen. The stomach is not the only part of your digestive system that absorbs food but rather is a part of the digestive system and important for churning food into a consistency that is easier to digest for the rest of your intestines.
