<u>Answer:</u> The mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399
<u>Explanation:</u>
Mass defect is defined as the difference in the mass of an isotope and its mass number.
The equation used to calculate mass defect follows:
![\Delta m=[(n_p\times m_p)+(n_n\times m_n)]-M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20m%3D%5B%28n_p%5Ctimes%20m_p%29%2B%28n_n%5Ctimes%20m_n%29%5D-M)
where,
= number of protons
= mass of one proton
= number of neutrons
= mass of one neutron
M = mass number of element
We are given:
An isotope of phosphorus which is 
Number of protons = atomic number = 15
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number = 31 - 15 = 16
Mass of proton = 1.00728 amu
Mass of neutron = 1.00866 amu
Mass number of phosphorus = 30.973765 amu
Putting values in above equation, we get:
![\Delta m=[(15\times 1.00728)+(16\times 1.00866)]-30.973765\\\\\Delta m=0.27399](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20m%3D%5B%2815%5Ctimes%201.00728%29%2B%2816%5Ctimes%201.00866%29%5D-30.973765%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CDelta%20m%3D0.27399)
Hence, the mass defect for the formation of phosphorus-31 is 0.27399
The pH of pure water is 7.0, which is neutral.
For a pH below this, the water is acidic. Substances that are acidic are often corrosive and thus could cause weather damaging. The pH of the precipitation in NY is below that of the precipitation in IL, and NY receives more precipitation, so for both of those reasons, it is likely to have more chemical weathering.
Answer:
Kp = 0.049
Explanation:
The equilibrium in question is;
2 SO₂ (g) + O₂ (g) ⇄ 2 SO₃ (g)
Kp = p SO₃² / ( p SO₂² x p O₂ )
The initial pressures are given, so lets set up the ICE table for the equilibrium:
atm SO₂ O₂ SO₃
I 3.3 0.79 0
C -2x -x 2x
E 3.3 - 2x 0.79 - x 2x
We are told 2x = partial pressure of SO₃ is 0.47 atm at equilibrium, so we can determine the partial pressures of SO₂ and O₂ as follows:
p SO₂ = 3.3 -0.47 atm = 2.83 atm
p O₂ = 0.79 - (0.47/2) atm = .56 atm
Now we can calculate Kp:
Kp = 0.47² /[ ( 2.83 )² x 0.56 ] = 0.049 ( rounded to 2 significant figures )
Note that we have extra data in this problem we did not need since once we setup the ICE table for the equilibrium we realize we have all the information needed to solve the question.
Hey there!
Great question;)
Answer:Physical change
Explanation: When sugar mixes with water, at the end, the chemical formulas are the same. Nothing has changed!
I hope this helps;)
To convert among units in the metric system, identify the unitthat you have, the unit that you want to convert to, and then count the number of units between them. If you are going from a larger unit to a smaller unit, you multiply by 10 successively
