Answer:

The Nitrogen has 7 neutrons.

Explanation:

The Atomic Number is the number of protons of an atom and is represented by Z, so:

Z = number of protons

Z = 7

The Atomic Mass is the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons, and is represented by A, so:

A = number of protons + number of neutrons

A = 14

And from A we have that the number of neutrons is:

Number of neutrons = A - number of protons

Number of neutrons = A - Z

Number of neutrons = 14 - 7

Number of neutrons = 7

This is required answer.

Explanation:

Given that,

Thermal energy chemical change lab report

We know that,

Thermal energy :

When we rise a temperature of any substance then the molecules of substance moves fastly then the heat produced. It is called thermal energy.

Chemical change in the thermal energy :

When we heat a substance then the thermal energy increases and the molecules of substance moves fastly. That means the chemical bonds are break in reactants due to energy.

In products, The new chemical bonds are create due to energy.

For example ; The coal is burned then produced heats water and change it into steam.

Hence, This is required answer.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the reduction of gaseous oxygen to aqueous hydrogen peroxide in basic aqueous solution. Be su

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Balanced half-reaction: $O_{2}(g)+2H_{2}O(l)+2e^{-}\rightarrow H_{2}O_{2}(aq.)+2OH^{-}(aq.)$

Explanation:

Balanced half-reaction for the reduction of gaseous oxygen to aqueous hydrogen peroxide in basic solution should be written in the following step-by-step manner:

Half-reaction: $O_{2}(g)\rightarrow H_{2}O_{2}(aq.)$

Balance H and O in basic medium: $O_{2}(g)+2H_{2}O(l)\rightarrow H_{2}O_{2}(aq.)+2OH^{-}(aq.)$

Balance charge: $O_{2}(g)+2H_{2}O(l)+2e^{-}\rightarrow H_{2}O_{2}(aq.)+2OH^{-}(aq.)$

Balanced half-reaction: $O_{2}(g)+2H_{2}O(l)+2e^{-}\rightarrow H_{2}O_{2}(aq.)+2OH^{-}(aq.)$

The absorbance of a cationic iron(II) sample solution was measured in a spectrophotometer, but the instrument returned an error

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

$1.35\times 10^{-4} M$ was the concentration of the original solution.

Explanation:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$ (Dilution)

where,

$M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are molarity and volume of non diluted sample.

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are molarity and volume of diluted sample.

$M_1=?$

$V_1=100.0 \mu L=0.1 mL$

(1μL=0.001 mL)

$M_2=6.41\times 10^{-6} M$

$V_2=2.00 mL + 100.0 \mu L=2.00 mL+0.1 mL=2.1 mL$

Substituting all values :

$M_1\times 0.1 mL=6.41\times 10^{-6} M\times 2.1 mL$

$M_1=\frac{6.41\times 10^{-6} M\times 2.1 mL}{0.1 mL}=1.35\times 10^{-4} M$

$1.35\times 10^{-4} M$ was the concentration of the original solution.

In a molecule of calcium sulfide, calcium has two valence electron bonds, and a sulfur atom has six valence electrons. How many

mote1985 [20]

There are none

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

a molecule of calcium sulfide

two valence electron of Calcium(Ca)

six valence electrons of Sulfur(S)

Required

number of lone pairs of electrons

Solution

Lewis structure shows the form of bonds that occur in the valence electrons of an element or compound

Valence electrons are electrons used in a chemical bond

To achieve stability, the element S needs 2 more electrons which are obtained from 2 electrons from the Ca element,

A lone pair electron means refers to an unshared pair of electrons(not bonding to the other atoms)

This condition usually occurs in covalent bonds

As we know, the bond between Ca, which is a group 2 (metal) with Sulfur in group 16, is an ionic bond because it occurs between metal and non-metal ions, so there is no sharing of electrons, but there is a release of electrons from Ca ions to S ions to form an octet. , so all the valence electrons in S are paired
