How do scientists know that they have created a new element?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lunna [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Nuclear scientists continue to expand the periodic table as they detect new elements. ... Scientists create heavy elements by bombarding two lighter elements that together add up to the mass of the desired new element. One of the elements is stationary and thus called the target.

Find the percent composition of OXYGEN in Manganese (III) nitrate, Mn(NO3)3.
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

59.8%

Explanation:

First find the Mr of manganese (III) nitrate.

Mr of Mn(NO₃)₃ = 54.9 + (14 × 3) + (16 × 3 × 3) = <u>240.9</u>

Since we have to find the percentage composition of oxygen, we need to find the Mr of oxygen in the compound, which is:

Mr of (O₃)₃ = (16 × 3) × 3 = <u>144</u>

Now we can find percentage composition / percentage by mass of oxygen.

% composition = \frac{Mr\ of\ oxygen\ in\ compound}{Mr\ of\ compound} × 100

% composition = \frac{144}{240.9} × 100 = <u>59.776%</u>

∴ % compostion of oxygen in maganese(III)nitrate is 59.8% (to 3 significant figures).

Hypothesis: How will molecular size affect the rate of evaporation and how will this correlate
Simora [160]

A molecular size affects the rate of evaporation when the larger the intermolecular forces in a compound, the slower the evaporation rate and this correlates with temperature change.

Molecular size seems to have an effect on evaporation rates in that the larger a molecule gets or grows from a base chemical formula, its evaporation rate will get slower.

<h3>What is the molecular size?</h3>

This is a measure of the area a molecule occupies in three-dimensional space as this relates to the physical size of an individual molecule.

Hence, we can see that a molecular size affects the rate of evaporation the larger the forces, the lower the rate.

The activation energy of a certain uncatalyzed biochemical reaction is 50.0 kJ/mol. In the presence of a catalyst at 37°C, the r
rodikova [14]

Answer:

E₁ ≅ 28.96 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Given that:

The activation energy of a certain uncatalyzed biochemical reaction is 50.0 kJ/mol,

Let the activation energy for a catalyzed biochemical reaction = E₁

E₁ = ??? (unknown)

Let the activation energy for an uncatalyzed biochemical reaction = E₂

E₂ = 50.0 kJ/mol

    = 50,000 J/mol

Temperature (T) = 37°C

= (37+273.15)K

= 310.15K

Rate constant (R) = 8.314 J/mol/k

Also, let the constant rate for the catalyzed biochemical reaction = K₁

let the constant rate for the uncatalyzed biochemical reaction = K₂

If the  rate constant for the reaction increases by a factor of 3.50 × 10³ as compared with the uncatalyzed reaction, That implies that:

K₁ = 3.50 × 10³

K₂ = 1

Now, to calculate the activation energy for the catalyzed reaction going by the following above parameter;

we can use the formula for Arrhenius equation;

K=Ae^{\frac{-E}{RT}}

If K_1=Ae^{\frac{-E_1}{RT}} -------equation 1     &

K_2=Ae^{\frac{-E_2}{RT}} -------equation 2

\frac{K_1}{K_2} = e^{\frac{-E_1-E_2}{RT}

E_1= E_2-RT*In(\frac{K_1}{K_2})

E_1= 50,000-8.314*310.15*In(\frac{3.50*10^3}{1})

E_1 = 28957.39292  J/mol

E₁ ≅ 28.96 kJ/mol

∴ the activation energy for a catalyzed biochemical reaction (E₁) = 28.96 kJ/mol
