gtnhenbr [62]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

An elementary particle that is identical with the nucleus of the hydrogen atom, that along with the neutron is a constituent of all other atomic nuclei, that carries a positive charge numerically equal to the charge of an electron.

Example:

The nucleus of a hydrogen atom or the H+ ion is an example of a proton. Regardless of the isotope, each atom of hydrogen has 1 proton; each helium atom contains 2 protons; each lithium atom contains 3 protons and so on.

Mercuric oxide (HgO) is heated and forms liquid mercury (Hg) and oxygen (O2) gas. How would you characterize this reaction?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Decomposition reaction.

Explanation:

Decomposition reaction -

It is the type of reaction, where a single entity breaks down into various products under the influence of some external factors , like heat and sunlight , is referred to as a decomposition reaction.

From the question,

The reaction is -

2 HgO  →  2 Hg + O₂

Hence ,

A single compound HgO breaks down to two entities , i.e. , Hg and  O₂.

If element X has 59 protons, how many electrons does it have?
laiz [17]
If element X has 59 protons then element X has 59 electrons.

Side note: as long as an element stays an atom the number of protons and electrons will always have the same value.

Consider the reaction
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

D. 5.0

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation at equilibrium

2 NO₂(g) ⇄ N₂O₄(g)

Step 2: Calculate the concentration equilibrium constant

The concentration equilibrium constant (Kc) is equal to the product of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

Kc = [N₂O₄]/[NO₂]² = 0.2 / 0.2² = 5

An object has a density of 1.75 g/mL. Will it float on water? Why?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The object will not float in water because the density of the object is greater than that of water.

Explanation:

Density of object = 1.75 g/mL

Density of water = 1 g/mL

The Density of the object is 1.75 g/mL and that of water is 1 g/mL. This implies that the object is denser (i.e heavier) than water. Therefore, the object will not float in water, rather it will sink in water since it's density is greater than that of water.
