How do you tell how many atoms are in a compound

Chemistry
1 answer:

7 0

Answer:

The little number you see to the right of the symbol for an element is called a subscript. That number indicates the number of atoms of that element present in the compound. When balancing an equation, you can change the coefficients but not the subscripts.

The best way seperate salt fron wateris with the use of
ExtremeBDS [4]

You can boil or evaporate the water and the salt will be left behind as a solid. If you want to collect the water, you can use distillation. This works because salt has a much higher boiling point than water. One way to separate salt and water at home is to boil the salt water in a pot with a lid. So, I would say maybe oil.

Which of these elements have the same number of valance electrons
solmaris [256]
Both carbon and lead belong to Group IV elements, and thus they have the same number of valence electrons. 
<span>In each of the other options, the two elements belong to different groups, and thus they do NOT have the same number of valence electrons.

I hope this helped you, please tell me if I am correct or not <3

Calculate the atomic mass of Carbon if the two common isotopes of carbon have masses of
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Average atomic mass of carbon = 12.01 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Abundance of C¹² = 98.89%

Abundance of C¹³ = 1.11%

Atomic mass of C¹² = 12.000 amu

Atomic mass of C¹³ = 13.003 amu

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass of carbon = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass of carbon = (12.000×98.89)+(13.003×1.11) /100

Average atomic mass of carbon=  1186.68 + 14.43333 / 100

Average atomic mass of carbon = 1201.11333 / 100

Average atomic mass of carbon = 12.01 amu.

Classify each salt as acidic, basic, or neutral? -nh4cl -ca(no32
vichka [17]
The pH of salt depends on the component acid and base that comprise them. For example, if the salt is made up of strong acid and weak base then, the salt is acidic. If the salt is formed from strong base and weak acid then, the salt is basic. For this item, NH4Cl is acidic and also Ca(NO3)2 is acidic.

Gamma decay/radiation

Explanation:

Gamma radiation has no mass and no electrical charge which means no change in the atomic number or mass number when gamma rays are emitted.
