Atomic number (Z) of tungsten is 74

Mass number (A) of tungsten is 184

Now:

Atomic number of an element = Number of protons = Number of electrons

Mass number = Number of Protons + Number of neutrons

In the case of tungsten

Total Number of electrons = 74

Jeffrey has already added 21 electrons

Number of electrons needed = 74 - 21 = 53

Ans (D) 53 more electrons are needed to complete the neutral atom of tungsten.

12.00 moles of naclo3 will produce how many grams of O2? (Moles to Grams)
Sergeu [11.5K]
2NaClO₃   →  2NaCl  +  3O₂

mole ratio of NaClO₃  to  O₂  is  2  :  3

∴  if moles of NaClO₃  =  12 mol

then moles of O₂  =  \frac{12 mol   *   3}{2}
      
                             =  18 mol


Mass of O₂  =  mol of O₂  ×  molar mass of O₂
 
                    =  18 mol  × 16 g/mol
 
                    =  288 g

So I wasn't sure which equation to use since you did not specify so I just used the decomposition reaction.  If you should have used another reaction then just follow the same steps and you'll get your answer.
