A neutral atom is one that has no net charge. In other words, the number of positive charges cancels out with the number of negative charges, so the number of protons equals the number of electrons. Uranium has 92 protons, which means it has a total positive charge of +92. To have a neutral charge, the atom MUST have 92 electrons, as that is a negative charge of -92, and the net charge is ultimately (protons + electrons) = ([+92] + [-92]) = 0.

What is the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in a container that contains 3.63 mol of oxygen, 1.49 mol of nitrogen, and 4.49 m
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Partial pressure of CO₂ is 406.9 mmHg

Explanation:

To solve the question we should apply the concept of the mole fraction.

Mole fraction = Moles of gas / Total moles

We have the total moles of the mixture, if we have the moles for each gas inside. (3.63 moles of O₂, 1.49 moles of N₂ and 4.49 moles of CO₂)

Total moles = 3.63 mol O₂ + 1.49 mol N₂ + 4.49 mol CO₂ = 9.61 moles

To determiine the partial pressure of CO₂ we apply

Mole fraction of CO₂ → mol of CO₂ / Total moles = P. pressure CO₂ / Total P

Partial pressure of CO₂ = (mol of CO₂ / Total moles) . Total pressure

We replace values: (4.49 moles / 9.61 moles) . 871 mmHg = 406.9 mmHg

almond37 [142]

Answer:

D. 5 moles

Explanation:

C3H8 + 5O2 → 4H2O + 3CO2

            5 mol                 3 mol

So, to make 3 mol CO2    5 mol O2 are needed.

How many elements and atoms are in marble
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientists know that there are 6x1023 molecules in a mole - so we have about 0.5x1023 molecules in our marble…and since every silicon dioxide molecule has one atom of silicon and two of oxygen, we have a grand total of 1.5x1023 atoms. That's 150,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms
