Answer:

Elements that are metals tend to lose electrons and become positively charged ions called cations. Elements that are nonmetals tend to gain electrons and become negatively charged ions called anions. Metals that are located in column 1A of the periodic table form ions by losing one electron.

If the edge length of the unit cell is 705.2 pm, what is the density of KI in g/cm3.

Kipish [7]

The density is 3.144 g / cm^3.

<u>Explanation</u>:

If effective number of atom in NaCl type structure, z = 4

a = 705.2 pm ⇒ In centimeter = 705.2 $\times$ 10^-10

Na = 6.023 $\times$ 10^23

density = (molecular weight) (z) / (Na) (a^3)

where molecular weight of KI is 166 g,

Z represents the atomic number

density = (molecular weight) (z) / (Na) (a^3)

= (166 $\times$ 4) / (6.023 $\times$ 10^23) $\times$ (705.2 $\times$ 10^-10)

density = 3.144 g / cm^3.

Burning one gallon of gasoline releases 20 pounds of CO2 into the air. Harry’s compact car can travel 25 miles on one gallon of

son4ous [18]

There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's, the answer can be easily deduced.
Amount of gasoline required by Harry's car to travel 25 miles = 1 gallon
Then
amount of gasoline required
by Harry's car to travel 15000 miles = 15000/25
= 600 gallons
So
Amount of CO2 released by burning 1 gallon of gasoline = 20 pounds
Then
Amount of CO2 released
by burning 600 gallon of gasoline = 600 * 20
= 12000 pounds
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the amount of CO2 that will be added by Harry's car to the atmosphere is 12000 pounds.

Which type of change is represented?

pentagon [3]

The correct answer is A. The image shows a nuclear fission. This takes place in any of the heavy nuclei after capture of a neutron. This is the opposite of nuclear fusion. In this case, nuclei are broken down into two.

A 13 g sample of P4010 contains how many

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{5.5 \times 10^{22}\text{ molecules of P$_{2}$O}_{5}}$

Explanation:

You must calculate the moles of P₄O₁₀, convert to moles of P₂O₅, then convert to molecules of P₂O₅.

1. Moles of P₄O₁₀

$\text{Moles of P$_{4}$O}_{10} = \text{13 g P$_{4}$O}_{10} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol P$_{4}$O}_{10}}{\text{283.89 g P$_{4}$O}_{10}} = \text{0.0458 mol P$_{4}$O}_{10}$

2. Moles of P₂O₅

P₄O₁₀ ⟶ 2P₂O₅

The molar ratio is 2 mol P₂O₅:1 mol P₄O₁₀

$\text{Moles of P$_{2}$O}_{5} = \text{0.0458 mol P$_{4}$O}_{10} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol P$_{2}$O}_{5}}{\text{1 mol P$_{4}$O}_{10}} = \text{0.0916 mol P$_{2}$O}_{5}$

3. Molecules of P₂O₅

$\text{No. of molecules} = \text{0.0916 mol P$_{2}$O}_{5} \times \dfrac{6.022 \times 10^{23}\text{ molecules P$_{2}$O}_{5}}{\text{1 mol P$_{2}$O}_{5}}\\\\= \mathbf{5.5 \times 10^{22}}\textbf{ molecules P$_{2}$O}_{5}\\\text{There are $\large \boxed{\mathbf{5.5 \times 10^{22}}\textbf{ molecules of P$_{2}$O}_{5}}$}$
