an atom that has 18 protons, 18 neutrons and 20 neutrons. This atom has mass number of 38
mass number is calculated as number of protons + number on neutrons
therefore the mass number of the atom = 18+20= 38
Since the atom has a electronic configuration of 2.8.8,the atom cannot be negatively or positively charged because it is stable.
The atomic number of the atom is 18 since atomic number is equal to number of protons
Answers:
1. 3-ethyl-3-methylheptane; 2. 2,2,3,3-tetramethylpentane; 3. hexa-2,4-diene.
Explanation:
<em>Structure 1
</em>
- Identify and name the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms (the main chain has 7 C; ∴ base name = heptane).
- Identify and name all the substituents [a 1C substituent (methyl) and a 2C substituent (methyl).
- Number the main chain from the end closest to a substituent.
- Identify the substituents by the number of the C atom on the main chain. Use hyphens between letters and numbers (3-methyl, 3-ethyl).
- Put the names of the substituents in alphabetical order in front of the base name with no spaces (3-ethyl-3-methylheptane)
<em>Structure 2</em>
- 5C. Base name = pentane
- Four methyl groups.
- Number from the left-hand end.
- If there is more than one substituent of the same type, identify each substituent by its locating number and use a multiplying prefix to show the number of each substituent. Use commas between numbers (2,2,3,3-tetramethyl).
- The name is 2,2,3,3-tetramethylpentane.
<em>Structure 3
</em>
- Identify and name the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms that passes through as many double bonds as possible. Drop the <em>-ne</em> ending of the alkane to get the root name <em>hexa-</em>.
- (No substituents).
- Number the main chain from the end closest to a double bond.
- If there is more than one double bond use a multiplying prefix to indicate the number of double bonds (two double bonds = diene) and use the smaller of the two numbers of the C=C atoms as the double bond locators (2,4-diene)
- Put the functional group name at the end of the root name (hexa-2,4-diene).
<em>Note</em>: The name 2,4-hexadiene is <em>acceptable</em>, but the <em>Preferred IUPAC Name</em> puts the locating numbers as close as possible in front of the groups they locate.
Nuclear power plants heat water to produce steam. The steam is used to spin large turbines that generate electricity. ... In nuclear fission, atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms, releasing energy. Fission takes place inside the reactor of a nuclear power plant.
It's the other name of Water and it's formula would be H2O
a. 0.137
b. 0.0274
c. 1.5892 g
d. 0.1781
e. 5.6992 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
2 C4H10 + 13O2 -------> 8CO2 + 10H2O
2.46 g of water
Required
moles and mass
Solution
a. moles of water :
2.46 g : 18 g/mol = 0.137
b. moles of butane :
= 2/10 x mol water
= 2/10 x 0.137
= 0.0274
c. mass of butane :
= 0.0274 x 58 g/mol
= 1.5892 g
d. moles of oxygen :
= 13/2 x mol butane
= 13/2 x 0.0274
= 0.1781
e. mass of oxygen :
= 0.1781 x 32 g/mol
= 5.6992 g
