What identifies an atom as iron atom?

Chemistry
1 answer:
julsineya [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

An atom is composed of three particles -- protons, neutrons and electrons. The number of protons is the defining characteristic of an element, and this number also tells you how many electrons are present in a neutral atom. Therefore, iron -- with an atomic number of 26 -- has 26 protons and electrons.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

                  Cu  +  4 HNO₃    →    Cu(NO₃)₂  +  2 NO₂  +  2 H₂O

Explanation:

Step 1: Write down the chemical formulas of given substances,

                                    Copper Metal  =  Cu

                                    Nitric Acid  =  HNO₃

                                    Copper (II) Nitrate  =  Cu(NO₃)₂

                                    Nitrogen Dioxide  =  NO₂

                                    Water  =  H₂O

Step 2: Write down the unbalance Chemical equation,

                         Cu  +  HNO₃    →    Cu(NO₃)₂  +  NO₂  +  H₂O

Step 3: Balance Cu atoms on both sides;

The number of Cu atoms on both sides are same. Hence, there number will remain the same.

Step 4: Balance N atoms on both sides;

As there is 1 N atom on left hand side and 3 N atoms on right hand side, so we will multiply HNO₃ by 3 to balance N on both sides, hence,

                         Cu  +  3 HNO₃    →    Cu(NO₃)₂  +  NO₂  +  H₂O

Step 5: Balance O atoms on both sides;

As there are 9 O atom on left hand side and 9 O atoms on right hand side, so they are balance.

Step 6: Balance H atoms on both sides;

As there are 3 H atom on left hand side and 2 H atoms on right hand side, so we will multiply H₂O by 2 as,

                         Cu  +  3 HNO₃    →    Cu(NO₃)₂  +  NO₂  +  2 H₂O

By doing so the number of O atoms got imbalanced, so to balance O atoms again we will multiply HNO₃ by 4 as,

                         Cu  +  4 HNO₃    →    Cu(NO₃)₂  +  NO₂  +  2 H₂O

Now, The Cu and H atoms are balanced, and the O atoms are greater on left hand side and the N atoms are greater on right hand side, therefore we will multiply NO₂ by 2 to balance both N and O as,

                         Cu  +  4 HNO₃    →    Cu(NO₃)₂  +  2 NO₂  +  2 H₂O

Calculate the grams of solute in each of the following solution: 278 mL of 0.038 M Fe2(SO4)3
Goryan [66]

Answer:  4.22 grams of solute is there in 278 ml of 0.038 M Fe_2(SO_4)_3

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in L

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

0.038M=\frac{n}{0.278L}

n=0.0105mol  

mass of  Fe_2(SO_4)_3 = moles\times {\text {Molar Mass}}=0.0105\times 399.88g/mol=4.22g

Thus 4.22 grams of solute is there in 278 ml of 0.038 M Fe_2(SO_4)_3

Try to rationalize the sign of ΔS∘rxn in each case.
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

a) decrease, gas

b) increase, gas

c) liquid

d) increase, solid

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system. If the number of moles of gas increases from left to right in a reaction, the entropy of the system increases positively.

Similarly, when the number of liquid molecules remain constant, there could only be a very little increase in entropy.

However, solids have the least entropy and the entropy of a system decreases when a system yields solid products.
