Explanation:
As we know that sum of only total number of protons are also known as atomic number of an atom. And, the sum of total number of protons and neutrons is known as atomic mass of an atom.
Number of protons help in determining the identity of an atom whereas the number of neutrons can be same for two or more number of atoms. But the number of protons will remain the same for a particular atom and for its isotopes.
For example, tex]^{1}_{1}H[/tex] and
are isotopes and each of them contains 1 proton.
thus, we can conclude that the number of protons in their nuclei would allow you to determine whether two atoms are of the same or different elements.
Answer:
108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S
Explanation:
The compound Ag2S shows that two atoms of Silver Ag, combined with an atom of Sulphur S to form Ag2S. We can as well say the combination ration of Silver to Sulphur is 2:1
•Now we need to calculate the molecular weight of this compound by summing up the molar masses of each element in the compound.
•Molar mass of Silver Ag= 107.9g/mol
•Molar mass of Sulphur S= 32g/mol
•Molecular weight of Ag2S= (2×107.9g/mol) + 32g/mol
•Molecular weight of Ag2S= 215.8g/mol + 32g/mol= 247.8g/mol
•From our calculations, we know that 215.8g/mol of Ag is present in 247.8g/mol of Ag2S
If 247.8g Ag2S produced 215.8g Ag
125g Ag2S will produce xg Ag
cross multiplying we have
xg= 215.8g × 125g / 247.8g
xg= 26975g/247.8
xg= 108.85g
Therefore, 108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S
Answer:
The options are
A. a hypothesis
B. a theory
C. a research question
D. a scientific explanation
The answer is A. a hypothesis
Explanation:
A hypothesis is referred to as a brief explanation on the occurrence of an event.
In the example above using of warm water on plants was inferred to make it grow faster as hot water increases the metabolism.
