The detergents used in dish-washing have chemicals and<span> washing knives in a dishwasher can therefore shorten their lifespan and cutting edge retention.

moreover..it can damage the other utensils as well...</span>

If you put knives in the sink along with other dishes you risk reaching for one of the dishes and cutting yourself. And should the dishes and knives collide it could result in broken dishes and dull knives

How many neutrons and protons are there in the nuclei of the following atoms. a. Li-7 b. O-16 c. Th-232 d. Pu-239
ANEK [815]

Answer:

a.

P = 3 , N = 4

b.

P = 8 , N = 8

c.

P = 90 , N = 142

d.

P = 94 , N = 145

Explanation:

Mass number  = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Also,

Atomic number = Number of protons

<u>Li - 7</u>

Given, Mass number of Lithium = 7

For lithium, atomic number = 3

So,

Number of protons = 3

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 7 - 3 = 4

<u>O - 16</u>

Given, Mass number of oxygen = 16

For oxygen, atomic number = 8

So,

Number of protons = 8

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 16 - 8 = 8

<u>Th - 232</u>

Given, Mass number of Thorium = 232

For Thorium, atomic number = 90

So,

Number of protons = 90

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 232 - 90 = 142

<u>Pu - 239</u>

Given, Mass number of Plutonium = 239

For Plutonium, atomic number = 94

So,

Number of protons = 94

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 239 - 94 = 145

18) Calculate the molarity
Sloan [31]

Answer:

B. 0.92 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution = number of moles (n) ÷ volume (V)

According to the information provided in this question;

mass of NaCl = 42g

Volume of water = 780mL

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

mole = 42/58.5

mole (n) = 0.72mol

Volume (V) = 780 mL = 780/1000 = 0.780 L

Hence, molarity = n/V

Molarity = 0.72/0.780

Molarity = 0.923 M

Air contains nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and trace gases. Ifthe partial pressure of nitrogen is 592 mm Hg, oxygen is160 mm Hg, argo
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

760 mmHg

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Partial pressure of nitrogen (pN₂): 592 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of oxygen (pO₂): 160 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of argon (pAr): 7 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of the trace gas (pt): 1 mmHg

Step 2: Calculate the atmospheric pressure

Since air is a gaseous mixture, the atmospheric pressure is equal to the sum of the gases that compose it.

P = pN₂ + pO₂ + pAr + pt = 592 mmHg + 160 mmHg + 7 mmHg + 1 mmHg = 760 mmHg
