Answer:

30, 50

Explanation:

Hello,

In this since an element's atomic number is equal to the number of protons in its atom, we can infer that selenium's atomic number is 30. Moreover, due to the fact the the neutrons are equal to the atomic mass minus the atomic number or the number of protons, by knowing the number of neutrons we compute the atomic as follows:

$neutrons=mass-protons\\\\mass=neutrons+protons\\\\mass=30+20\\\\mass=50a.m.u$

Thus, answer is 30, 50.

Best regards.

Why do larger gases such as Neon produce more color bands (line spectra) than smaller gases like Hydrogen?

LekaFEV [45]

Larger gases produces more spectral lines than the smaller gases because they have more orbitals in their atoms.
Hydrogen has only one orbital in which an electron orbits. At the excited state, that is, when the electron gains energy, the number of energy level it can transcend is very few. For larger elements, they have more orbitals and when excited, they can move from the ground state to other energy levels at which they produce various unique spectral lines.

Consider the followong balanced reaction. What mads in g of co2 can be formed from 288 mg of o2. Assume that there is excess c3h

Gwar [14]

Answer:

0.264 g of $CO_2$ can be formed from 288 mg of $O_2$

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is

$2 C_3 H_7 OH+9 O_2> 6 CO_2+8 H_2 O$

The conversions are

Mass in mg $O_2$ is converted to mass in g $O_2$

Mass in g $O_2$ is converted to moles $O_2$ by dividing with molar mass

Moles $O_2$ is converted to moles $CO_2$ by using the mole ratio of $O_2:CO_2$ is 9 : 6

Moles $CO_2$ is converted to mass $CO_2$ by multiplying with molar mass $CO_2$

mass in mg $O_2$ > mass in g $O_2$ >moles $O_2$ > moles $CO_2$ > mass $CO_2$

$288mg O_2 \times \frac{(1g O_2)}{(1000mg O_2 )} \times \frac {(1molO_2)}{(32gO_2 )}\times\frac {(6mol CO_2)}{(9mol O_2 )} \times \frac {(44.0 gCO_2)}{(1mol CO_2 )}$
