You find the number of protons in an atom by looking at the periodic table.
1) Find your element.
2) Locate The atomic number of your element
3) The Atomic Number is also the number of protons.
Usually, the atomic number is on the on the top of the atomic symbol.

You can find the number of protons in an atom by looking at its atomic number, as the atomic number indicates the number of protons (and electrons) in an atom.

Two samples of the same compound are compared. what does the data represent? sample 1: 24.22 g carbon and 32.00 g oxygen sample

goblinko [34]

According to law of definite proportion:

In a compound, elements are always arranged in fixed ratio by mass.

Here, sample 1 has 23.22 g Carbon and 32.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{24.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 2 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{32 g}{16 g/mol}=2 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=2:2=1:1$

Therefore, formula of compound will be CO.

Sample 2:

It has 36.22 g Carbon and 48.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{36.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 3 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{48 g}{16 g/mol}=3 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=3:3=1:1$

The formula of compound will be CO.

Therefore, it is proved that carbon and oxygen are present in fixed ratios in both the samples.

33 protons 36 electrons 45 neutrons

Artist 52 [7]

As has an atomic number of 33, so it has 33 protons.

It has a charge of 3-, so there are three more electrons than protons. Thus, there are 36 electrons.

It has a mass of 75, which is the sum of neutrons and protons.

33+n=75 ---> n = 75 - 33 = 42 neutrons

The answer is e) 33 protons, 42 neutrons and 36 electrons.

O tetraclorometano é um solvente muito utilizado na indústria de transformaç?o de produtos orgânicos ele é produzido pela reaç?o

Vlada [557]

Answer:

ΔHr = -103,4 kcal/mol

Explanation:

Using:

AH° (kcal/mol)

Metano (CH)

-17,9

Cloro (CI)

tetraclorometano (CCI)

- 33,3

Acido cloridrico (HCI)

-22

It is possible to obtain the ΔH of a reaction from ΔH's of formation for each compound, thus:

ΔHr = (ΔH products - ΔH reactants)

For the reaction:

CH₄(g) + Cl₂(g) → CCl₄(g) + HCl(g)

The balanced reaction is:

CH₄(g) + 4Cl₂(g) → CCl₄(g) + 4HCl(g)

The ΔH's of formation for these compounds are:

ΔH CH₄(g): -17,9 kcal/mol

ΔH Cl₂(g): 0 kcal/mol

ΔH CCl₄(g): -33,3 kcal/mol

ΔH HCl(g): -22 kcal/mol

The ΔHr is:

-33,3 kcal/mol × 1 mol + -22 kcal/mol× 4 mol - (-17,9 kcal/mol × 1 mol + 0kcal/mol × 4mol)

ΔHr = -103,4 kcal/mol

I hope it helps!
