Dafna1 [17]
In the dark waters just below the photic zone, because of cellular respiration, the concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide is higher relative to dissolved oxygen. 
In cellular respiration living organisms use oxygen and release carbon dioxide, because there is little or no light there is no photosynthesis and oxygen is little produced.

What is the mass in grams of 14.2 liters of sulfur dioxide gas at STP?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Mass = 40.4 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass in gram = ?

Volume of SO₂ = 14.2 L

Temperature = standard = 273 K

Pressure =  standard = 1 atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

1 atm × 14.2 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K   × 273 K

14.2 atm.L = n ×  22.41 atm.L/ mol

n = 14.2 atm.L/22.41 atm.L/ mol

n = 0.63 mol

Mass of sulfur dioxide:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.63 mol × 64.1 g/mol

Mass = 40.4 g

An atom is made of 16 protons, 17 neutrons, and 18 electrons. What is the mass number of
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The answer is 33 .

Explanation:

The mass number of an atom is the atomic mass which consists of proton and neutron. This atom has 16 protons and 17 neutrons so it has a mass of 33 :

proton number + neutron number = nucleon number / atomic mass

16 + 17 = 33

Which pair will for an ionic compound
vovikov84 [41]

Answer: A pair of elements will most likely form an ionic bond if one is a metal and one is a nonmetal. These types of ionic compounds are composed of monatomic cations and anions.

Explanation:

A pair of elements will most likely form an ionic bond if one is a metal and one is a nonmetal. These types of ionic compounds are composed of monatomic cations and anions.

Explanation:

The chart below shows monatomic ions formed when an atom loses or gains one or more electrons, and the ionic compounds they form. You can check your periodic table to see that the cations are monatomic ions formed from metals, and the anions are monatomic ions formed from nonmetals.
