Answer:

atoms are electrically neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). if an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion.

hope this helps

If 12.5 grams of the original sample of cesium-137 remained after 90.6 years, what was the mass of the original sample?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Mass of original sample = 100 g

Explanation:

Half life of cesium-137 = 30.17 years

t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{\ln2}{30.17}\ year^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.02297 year⁻¹

Time = 90.6 years

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Initial concentration [A_0] = ?

Final concentration [A_t] = 12.5 grams

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

12.5\ g=[A_0]e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}

[A_0]=\frac{12.5}{e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}}\ g=100\ g

<u>Mass of original sample = 100 g</u>

The equation shows one mole of ethanol fuel being burned in oxygen. Convert the energy released into its equivalent mass. C2H5OH
lana [24]

Answer:

47.9 g of ethanol

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen to produce heat and light. Combustion reactions have been very useful as a source of energy. Ethanol is now burnt for energy purposes as a fuel. Ethanol has even been proposed as a possible alternative to fossil fuels.

Since 1 mole of ethanol when combusted releases 1367 kJ/mol of energy

x moles of ethanol releases 1418 kJ/mol.

x= 1 × 1418 kJ/mol/ 1367 kJ/mol

x= 1.04 moles of ethanol.

Mass of ethanol = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass of ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

Mass of ethanol = 1.04 moles × 46.07 g/mol

Mass of ethanol= 47.9 g of ethanol

Part A:
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Part A = The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams

Part B = The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

Explanation:

Part A

Step 1: Data given

A mixture of carbon and sulfur has a mass of 9.0 g

Mass of the product = 27.1 grams

X = mass carbon

Y = mass sulfur

x + y = 9.0  grams

x = 9.0 - y

x(molar mass CO2/atomic mass C) + y(molar mass SO2/atomic mass S) = 22.6

(9 - y)*(44.01/12.01) + y(64.07/32.07)

(9-y)(3.664) + y(1.998)

32.976 - 3.664y + 1.998y = 22.6

-1.666y = -10.376

y = 6.228 = mass sulfur

x = 9.0 - 6.228 = 2.772 grams = mass C

The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams

Part B

Calculate the mass, in grams, of a single silver atom (mAg = 107.87 amu ).

Calculate moles of 1 silver atom

Moles = 1/ 6.022*10^23

Moles = 1.66*10^-24 moles

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass = 1.66*10 ^-24 moles *107.87

Mass = 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

Calculate the volume of hydrogen if you have 12.1 moles of Hydrogen.
vodomira [7]

To Find :

The volume of 12.1 moles hydrogen at STP.

Solution :

We know at STP, 1 mole of gas any gas occupy a volume of 22.4 L.

Let, volume of 12.1 moles of hydrogen is x.

So, x = 22.4 × 12.1 L

x = 271.04 L

Therefore, the volume of hydrogen gas at STP is 271.04 L.
