Answer:
The isotope with the greatest number of protons is:
- <u>option D: Pu-239, with 94 protons</u>
Explanation:
The number of <em>protons</em> is the atomic number and is a unique number for each type of element.
You can tell the number of protons searching the element in a periodic table and reading its atomic number.
Thus, this is how you tell the number of protons or each isotope
Sample Chemical symbol Element atomic number # of protons
A Pa-238 Pa protactinium 91 91
B U-240 U uranium 92 92
C Np-238 Np neptunium 93 93
D Pu-239 Pu plutonium 94 94
The correct chemical formulae is CsBr
Answer:
64J of energy must have been released.
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
One reactant contains 346 J of chemical energy, the other reactant contains 153 J of chemical energy.
The product contains 435 J of chemical energy.
Step 2:
Since the energy is conserved
Sum of energy of Reactants = Energy of Products
Sum of energy of Reactants = 346 J + 153 J = 499 J
The energy of the product = 435 J
435 < 499
This means energy must have been lost as heat.
Step 3: Calculate heat released
499 J - 435 J = 64 J
64J of energy must have been released.
Answer: (3) The difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen is greater than that between fluorine and oxygen.
Explanation: Polarity of a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. More is the electronegativity difference, more is the polarity.
Electronegativity of carbon = 2.5
Electronegativity of oxygen = 3.5
Electronegativity of fluorine = 4.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen is=(3.5-2.5)= 1.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen is=(4.0-3.5)= 0.5.
Thus C-O bond is more polar than F-O bond.
Answer: An atom with 6 protons, 5 electrons, and 7 neutrons
Explanation: In this case, neutrons do not matter as they have a charge of 0, or no charge. A proton has a charge of +1 and an electron has a charge of -1. Since there are 6 protons, the total charge of the protons would be +6. Since there are 5 electrons the total charge of the electrons would be -5. +6 - 5 would result in a charge of +1. This means that this atom would have an overall charge of + 1. Basically, if there is one more proton than electron, then the overall charge of the atom will be +1 but if there is one more electron than proton, then the overall charge of the atom will be -1.
