The mass of an atom is the number of protons and neutrons in it (electrons are light enough to be ignored). To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the number of protons from its mass (you can find its mass in a periodic table). The result is your answer.

<span>Mass Number = (Atomic Number) + (Number of Neutrons) so you solve for the Number of Neutrons and you get:
Number of Neutrons = (Mass number) - (Atomic Number) 

Mass Number equals protons plus neutrons, round atomic weight to nearest whole number
Atomic Number equals number of Protons</span>

Given the equation representing a reversible reaction:
tester [92]

Answer:

- Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and hydronium ion (H₃O⁺)

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, based on the acid-base theory which states that acids are known as H⁺ donors, if we consider the direct reaction:

CH_3COOH(aq) + H_2O \rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)

It is clear that the acetic acid is the first H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into the acetate ion. Moreover, if we consider the inverse reaction:

CH_3COO^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(aq) + H_2O

It is also clear that the hydronium ion is the second H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into water.

Best regards.

If 1.76 g of an ideal gas occupy 1.0 L at standard temperature and pressure (STP), what is the molar mass of the gas?
ycow [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Whenever you see molar masses in gas law questions, more often than not density will be involved. This question is no different. To solve this, however, we will first need to play with the combined ideal gas equation PV=nRT to make it work for density and molar mass. The derivation is simple but for the sake of time and space, I will skip it. Hence, just take my word for it that you will end up with the equation:M=dRTPM = molar mass (g/mol)d = density (g/L)R = Ideal Gas Constant (≈0.0821atm⋅Lmol⋅K) T = Temperature (In Kelvin) P = Pressure (atm)As an aside, note that because calculations with this equation involve molar mass, this is the only variation of the ideal gas law in which the identity of the gas plays a role in your calculations. Just something to take note of. Back to the problem: Now, looking back at what we're given, we will need to make some unit conversions to ensure everything matches the dimensions required by the equation:T=35oC+273.15= 308.15 KV=300mL⋅1000mL1L= 0.300 LP=789mmHg⋅1atm760mmHg= 1.038 atmSo, we have almost everything we need to simply plug into the equation. The last thing we need is density. How do we find density? Notice we're given the mass of the sample (0.622 g). All we need to do is divide this by volume, and we have density:d=0.622g0.300L= 2.073 g/LNow, we can plug in everything. When you punch the numbers into your calculator, however, make sure you use the stored values you got from the actual conversions, and not the rounded ones. This will help you ensure accuracy.M=dRTP=(2.073)(0.0821)(308.15)1.038= 51 g/molRounded to 2 significant figuresNow if you were asked to identify which element this is based on your calculation, your best bet would probably be Vandium (molar mass 50.94 g/mol). Hope that helped :)

Which of these laboratory techniques is best to separate a solid from a liquid to recover the liquid? f chromatography g filteri
galina1969 [7]
Answer:
            Filtering <span>is best laboratory technique to separate a solid from a liquid to recover the liquid.

Explanation:
                   A solid particles present in liquids can be separated from liquid by utilizing a membrane having pores large enough to allow the liquid molecules to pass through and small enough to stop the solid particles from crossing. 

Example:
              Tea Filters are used to separate Tea from the grounds.

              Kidney is an excellent example of Biological Filter.
