Answer:

because of catenation of carbon.

Explanation:

Catenation is the binding of an element to its self through covalent bonds to form chain or ring molecules. carbon is able to form continuous links with other carbon atoms which is the reason for the existence of a large number of organic compounds.

A chemist needs 1.25 moles of sugar to dissolve in 1 liter of water how many grams of sugar needed
sdas [7]

Answer:

The mass of sugar used is 427.5 grams.

Explanation:

The formula of common sugar is \mathrm{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}.

Its molar mass of molecule is 342 grams per mole.

The number of moles of sugar used is equal to '1.25'

\mathbf{Mole=\frac{Mass \ given \ in \ grams}{Molar \ mass \ of \ molecule \ in \ grams}}

\textrm{Mass in grams}=\textrm{Mole} \times \textrm{Molar mass of molecule in grams}

\textrm{Mass in grams}= 1.25\times342

\mathbf{Mass \ in \ grams=427.5 g}

(NOTE : <em>You can calculate molar mass by adding the mass of all the atoms present in the atom. </em>

<em>Mass of Oxygen (O) = 16  ;  Total number of Oxygen atoms present = 11</em>

<em>Mass of Hydrogen (H) =1  ;  Total number of Hydrogen Atoms present = 22</em>

<em>Mass of Carbon (C) = 12   ;  Total number of Carbon atoms present = 12</em>

<em>Total mass of molecule = 12 × 12 + 1 × 22 + 16 × 11 = 342</em>)

How much heat is absorbed during production of 136 g of NO by the combination of nitrogen and oxygen?
MaRussiya [10]
100.3kcal of heat will be absorbed. 2moles of NO absorb 43kcal. I mole of NO weighs 14 +16 = 30g so 2 moles weigh 60g. So 60g absorb 43kcal So 1g absorb 43/60 kcal So 136g absorb (43/60) x 136 = 97.47 kcal

Identify the subatomic structure of an atom.

SUBATOMIC PARTICLES

After reading this section you will be able to do the following:

<span>List the three main subatomic particles of an atom.Discuss the positions of these particles within the atom and what electric charge they carry, if any.</span>

What are atoms made of?

Now that we have talked about how atoms are combined to make other substances, let's talk about the particles that make up the atom. Particles that are smaller than the atom are called subatomic particles. The three main subatomic particles that form an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons. The center of the atom is called the nucleus. First, let's learn a bit about protons and neutrons, and then we will talk about electrons a little later.

Protons and Neutrons

Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of an atom. All protons are identical to each other, and all neutrons are identical to each other. Protons have a positive electrical charge, so they are often represented with the mark of a "+" sign. Neutrons have no electrical charge and are said to help hold the protons together (protons are positively charged particles and should repel each other).

If all protons are identical and all neutrons are identical, then what makes the atoms of two different elements different from each other? For example, what makes a hydrogen atom different from a helium atom? The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus give the atoms their specific characteristics. In the graphic below you will notice that each of the three elements have different numbers of protons and neutrons. They would also like to have the same number of electrons as they have protons in order to stay electrically balanced.
