Write the full symbol for the isotope of oxygen having 8 neutrons.

1 answer:

6 0

Answer:

Isotopes are forms of a chemical element that have the same atomic number but differ in mass. 16O → 8 protons + 8 neutrons; a “light” oxygen); The relative amounts are expressed as either 18O/16O or δ 18O Oxygen - 18 (aka 18O → 8 protons + 10 neutrons; a “heavy” oxygen).

What is the ΔG for the following reaction at 25°C?

ikadub [295]

$\Delta G_{global}=\Delta G_{products}-\Delta G_{reagents}\\\\
\text{We should consider the stoichiometry:}\\\\
\Delta G=2\Delta G_{NO_2}-\Delta G_{N_2O_4}\\\\
\Delta G=2\cdot51.8-98.28=103.6-98.28\\\\
\boxed{\Delta G=5.32~kJ}$
