7 0

Answer:

The island of stability is a term from nuclear physics that describes the possibility of elements with particularly stable "magic numbers" of protons and neutrons. This would allow certain isotopes of some transuranic elements to be far more stable than others, that is, decay much more slowly.

If element x has 55 protons how many electrons does it have
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer: 55

Explanation: A atom consists of a nucleus  and electrons.Nucleus contain neutrons with no charge and protons with positive charge. The electrons bearing negative charge revolve around the nucleus.

An electrically neutral atom contains equal number of protons and electrons. Thus if a neutral element X contains 55 protons, it also contains 55 electrons.

When the following equation is balanced, what is the coefficient for O2?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

3 is the coefficient of oxygen.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

CH₃OH + O₂      →     CO₂ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

2CH₃OH + 3O₂      →     2CO₂ + 4H₂O

The given reaction is combustion reaction. In this reaction methanol is burn in the presence of oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water.

The balance equation show reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Burning a compound of calcium, carbon and nitrogen in oxygen generates calcium oxide (CaO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen di
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

CaCN₂

Explanation:

A compound of calcium, carbon and nitrogen CaₐCₓNₙ in oxygen will burning producing:

CaₐCₓNₙ + O₂ → aCaO + xCO₂ + nNO₂

Moles of the oxides CaO, CO₂, NO₂ are:

CaO: 3.106g ₓ (1 mole / 56.08g) = <em>0.0554 moles of CaO = moles of Ca</em>

CO₂: 2.439g ₓ (1mole / 44g) = <em>0.0554 moles CO₂ = moles C</em>

NO₂: 5.097g ₓ (1mole / 46g) = <em>0.111 moles NO₂ = moles N</em>

Empirical formula is the chemical formula that represents the simplest ratio of elements in a compound.

Having as basis 0.0554 moles (The lower number of moles):

0.0554 moles Ca / 0.0554 = 1 Ca

0.0554 moles C / 0.0554 = 1 C

0.111 moles N / 0.0554 = 2N

Thus, the compound CaₐCₓNₙ  has as empirical formula:

Ca₁C₁N₂ = <em>CaCN₂</em>
