Answer:

2.82 * 10^-25 g

Explanation:

Given that :

Atomic number = 17

Mass of an atom of the element =?

Avogadro's constant = 6.022 * 10^23

The mass of an atom. Of the element is :

Atomic mass / Avogadro's constant

= 17 / 6.022 * 10^23

= 2.82 * 10^-25

=

What do you think is the most important element and why? Include information
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Hydrogen

Explanation:

It is considered a special element due to its flexibility in giving up & taking in electrons, therefore making it good for organic & inorganic chemistry. Hydrogen has only one proton and one electron and is the only element which has no neutrons. it is considered as the simplest element in the universe and gives a valid reason for it to be the most abundant and common element in the universe.

What do you look at to tell the reactivity of an atom?
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The number of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom determines its reactivity. Noble gases have low reactivity because they have full electron shells. Halogens are highly reactive because they readily gain an electron to fill their outermost shell.

Chemical energy is stored in our food. What form of energy did this chemical energy start out as?
evablogger [386]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Plants used to prepare food in the presence of sunlight. Therefore, plants uses solar energy to make food.

Due to solar energy various chemical reactions take place in the food.

Thus, we can conclude that chemical energy is stored in our food and this chemical energy start out as light energy from the sun.

Describe how you would prepare approximately 2 l of 0.050 0 m boric acid, b(oh)3.
Elenna [48]

The given concentration of boric acid = 0.0500 M

Required volume of the solution = 2 L

Molarity is the moles of solute present per liter solution. So 0.0500 M boric acid has 0.0500 mol boric acid present in 1 L solution.

Calculating the moles of 0.0500 M boric acid present in 2 L solution:

2 L * \frac{0.0500 mol B(OH)_{3} }{1 L} = 0.100 mol B(OH)_{3}

Converting moles of boric acid to mass:

0.100 mol B(OH)_{3} * \frac{61.83 g}{mol B(OH)_{3}}   = 6.183 g

Therefore, 6.183 g boric acid when dissolved and made up to 2 L with distilled water gives 0.0500 M solution.
