Answer:

Explanation:

A proton is a subatomic particle, symbol p or p⁺, with a positive electric charge. elementary charge and a mass slightly less than that of a neutron. Protons and neutrons, each with masses of approximately one atomic mass unit, are collectively referred to as "nucleon"

The neutron is a subatomic particle, symbol n, with no net electric charge and a mass slightly greater than that of a proton. Protons and neutrons constitute the nuclei of atoms. Since protons and neutrons behave similarly within the nucleus, and each has a mass of approximately one atomic mass unit, they are both referred to as nucleons. Their properties and interactions are described by nuclear physics.

Hope this helped :)

The total volume of seawater is 1.5 x 1021L .Assume that seawater contains 3.1 percent sodium chloride by mass and that its dens

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Mass in kg = 4.7*10^19 kg

Mass in tons = 5.2*10^16 tons

Explanation:

Given:

Total volume of sea water = 1.5*10^21 L

Mass % NaCl in seawater = 3.1%

Density of seawater = 1.03 g/ml

To determine:

Total mass of NaCl in kg and in tons

Calculation:

Unit conversion:

1 L = 1000 ml

The volume of seawater in ml is:

$=\frac{1.5*10^{21}L*1000ml }{1L} =1.5*10^{24} ml$

$Mass\ seawater = Density*volume = 1.03g/ml*1.5*10^{24} ml=1.5*10^{24}g$

$Mass\ NaCl\ in\ seawater = \frac{3.1}{100}*1.5*10^{24} g=4.7*10^{22} g$

To convert mass from g to Kg:

1000 g = 1 kg

$Mass\ seawater(kg) = \frac{4.7*10^{22}g*1kg }{1000g} =4.7*10^{19} kg$

To convert mass from g to tons:

1 ton = 9.072*10^6 g

$Mass\ seawater(tons) = \frac{4.7*10^{22}g*1ton }{9.072*10^{6}g } =5.2*10^{16} tons$

II. Ionic Equations

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Complete ionic: $\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} \, (aq) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \\ & \rm \to 2\, AgCl\, (s) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-}\, (aq)\end{aligned}$ .

Net ionic: $\begin{aligned}& \rm Ag^{+}\, (aq) + Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .

Explanation:

Start by identifying species that exist as ions. In general, such species include:

Soluble salts.
Strong acids and strong bases.

All four species in this particular question are salts. However, only three of them are generally soluble in water: $\rm AgNO_3$ , $\rm CaCl_2$ , and $\rm Ca(NO_3)_2$ . These three salts will exist as ions:

Each $\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)$ formula unit will exist as one $\rm Ag^{+}$ ion and one $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ ion.
Each $\rm CaCl_2$ formula unit will exist as one $\rm Ca^{2+}$ ion and two $\rm Cl^{-}$ ions (note the subscript in the formula $\rm CaCl_2\!$ .)
Each $\rm Ca(NO_3)_2$ formula unit will exist as one $\rm Ca^{2+}$ and two $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ ions.

On the other hand, $\rm AgCl$ is generally insoluble in water. This salt will not form ions.

Rewrite the original chemical equation to get the corresponding ionic equation. In this question, rewrite $\rm AgNO_3$ , $\rm CaCl_2$ , and $\rm Ca(NO_3)_2$ (three soluble salts) as the corresponding ions.

Pay attention to the coefficient of each species. For example, indeed each $\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)$ formula unit will exist as only one $\rm Ag^{+}$ ion and one $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ ion. However, because the coefficient of $\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)\!$ in the original equation is two, $\!\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)$ alone should correspond to two $\rm Ag^{+}\!$ ions and two $\rm {NO_3}^{-}\!$ ions.

Do not rewrite the salt $\rm AgCl$ because it is insoluble.

$\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} \, (aq) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \\ & \rm \to 2\, AgCl\, (s) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-}\, (aq)\end{aligned}$ .

Eliminate ions that are present on both sides of this ionic equation. In this question, such ions include one unit of $\rm Ca^{2+}$ and two units of $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ . Doing so will give:

$\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to 2\, AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .

Simplify the coefficients:

$\begin{aligned}& \rm Ag^{+}\, (aq) + Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .

the combustion of 0.1240 kg of propane in the presence of excess oxygen produces 0.3110kg of carbon dioxide what is the limittin

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Propane

Explanation:

From the question given, we were told that 0.1240 kg of propane reacted with excess oxygen to produce 0.3110kg of carbon dioxide.

Since the reaction took place in the presence of excess oxygen, therefore, propane is the limiting reactant as all of it is used up in the presence of excess oxygen.
