Answer:

6

8

6

Explanation:

 Isotope given:

                       ¹⁴₆C

In specie written as this;  

   Superscript  = Mass number

   Subscript  = Atomic number

To find the protons, it is the same as the atomic number;

                Protons  = Atomic number  = 6

Neutrons have no charges;

 Neutrons  = Mass number - Atomic number  =

  Neutrons  = 14 - 6  = 8

The number of electrons is the same as the atomic number = 6

10g of a non-volatile and non-dissociating solute is dissolved in 200g of benzene.
ehidna [41]

<u>Answer: </u>The molar mass of solute is 115 g/mol.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Elevation in the boiling point is defined as the difference between the boiling point of the solution and the boiling point of the pure solvent.

The expression for the calculation of elevation in boiling point is:

\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{boiling point of pure solvent}=i\times K_b\times m

OR

\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of pure solvent}=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times w_{solvent}\text{(in g)}} ......(1)

where,

Boiling point of pure solvent (benzene) = 80.10^oC

Boiling point of solution = 81.20^oC

i = Vant Hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

K_b = Boiling point elevation constant = 2.53^oC/m

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute = 10 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute = ? g/mol

w_{solvent} = Mass of solvent = 200 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

81.20-80.10=1\times 2.53\times \frac{10\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times 200}\\\\M_{solute}=\frac{1\times 2.53\times 10\times 1000}{1.1\times 200}\\\\M_{solute}=115g/mol

Hence, the molar mass of solute is 115 g/mol.

4Fe (s) + 3 O2 (g) → 2 Fe2O3 (s)
Novay_Z [31]

Explanation:

The number acquired by an element after the lose or gain of an electron is called oxidation number.

For example, 4Fe(s) + 3O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2Fe_{2}O_{3}(s)

Here, oxidation number of Fe(s) is 0 and Fe in Fe_{2}O_{3} is +3.

Oxidation number of O in O_{2}(g) is 0 as it is present in its elemental state.

The oxidation number of O in Fe_{2}O_{3} is calculated as follows.

2(3) + 3x = 0\\6 + 3x = 0\\x = \frac{-6}{3}\\= -2

Hence,  oxidation number of O in Fe_{2}O_{3} is -2.

  • The loss of electrons by an element or substance is called oxidation. Here, electrons are being lost by Fe(s) as an increase in oxidation state is occurring. So, Fe(s) is oxidized.
  • The gain of electrons by an element or substance is called reduction. Here, electrons are being added to O_{2} as a decrease in its oxidation state is occurring. So, O_{2}  is reduced.
  • An element or compound which is being reduced is called oxidizing agent. Here, O_{2}  is the oxidizing agent.
  • An element or compound which is being oxidized is called reducing agent. Here, Fe(s) is the reducing agent.
