How to find the number of neutrons in an isotope?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alexeev081 [22]3 years ago
4 0
Chemical properties of elements are primarily determined by the electrons but not by neutrons. Therefore, the isotopes of the same element have similar chemical behavior. (a) The atomic number is 17, so there are 17 protons and 17 electrons. The mass number is 35, so there are 18 (=35-17) neutrons. Hope this helps. :)

<h2>Let us predict the gas and liquid products in option </h2>

Explanation:

option  1 :  2 upper H g upper O (s) right arrow 2 upper H g (l) plus upper O subscript 2 (g).

Chemical reaction

It is the reactants react to form products .

Chemical equation

It is the method of representing reaction in terms of moles , specifying states , symbols , molecular formulas etc .

This actually gives the complete info about the reaction .

In the above asked question or any other question we can specify the states by writting :

Solid as "S".

Liquid as "L"

Gas as (g).

Distinguish between a solution in general and an aqueous solution
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

  • What distinguish a solution in general from an aqueous solution is the solvent. A solution in general may contain any solvent, which may be solid, liquid or gas, while an aqueous solution is formed with water as solvent.

Explanation:

A solution in general is a homogeneous mixture in which a substance, named solute, is dissolved, in other substance, name solvent.

Solutions may be in solid, liquid or gas state. There are many kind of solvents. Usually, in a lab you work with liquid solutions. Some liquid solvents are: ethanol, glycerin, hexane, benzene, and water, among many others.

Aqueous solution is a solution where the solvent is water. Of course, the solute may be any one: NaCl, sugar, ethanol, an acid, a base, a salt.

What distinguish a solution in general and an aqueous solution is the solvent.

Calculate the oxidation numbers of the elements in this equation<br> 2 Al2O3 → 4 Al + 3 O2
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Explanation:

Answer

Open in answr app

The rule used here is that the algebraic sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms a molecule is zero.

Al2O32× ( oxidation number of Al)+3× ( Oxidation number of O )  = 0

2× ( Oxidation number of Al) +3(−2)=0

2× ( oxidation number of Al) +6

∴ Oxidation number of Al =+3

What is the emperical formula of a compound containing 40.1% carbon and 6.6% hydrogen​
levacccp [35]

Answer:

CH₂

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Percentage composition:

          Carbon  = 40.1%

          Hydrogen  = 6.6%

Unknown:

Empirical formula of the compound  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a substance is its simplest formula.

 Elements                             Carbon                             Hydrogen

Percentage

Composition                           40.1                                     6.6

Molecular mass                        12                                         1

Number of moles                  40.1/12                                  6.6/1

                                                3.342                                    6.6

Divide through by

the smallest                         3.342/3.342                           6.6/3.342

                                                      1                                        2

So the empirical formula of the compound is CH₂
