How many neutrons and protons are there in the nuclei of the following atoms. a. Li-7 b. O-16 c. Th-232 d. Pu-239

ANEK [815]

Answer:

a.

P = 3 , N = 4

b.

P = 8 , N = 8

c.

P = 90 , N = 142

d.

P = 94 , N = 145

Explanation:

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Also,

Atomic number = Number of protons

Li - 7

Given, Mass number of Lithium = 7

For lithium, atomic number = 3

So,

Number of protons = 3

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 7 - 3 = 4

O - 16

Given, Mass number of oxygen = 16

For oxygen, atomic number = 8

So,

Number of protons = 8

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 16 - 8 = 8

Th - 232

Given, Mass number of Thorium = 232

For Thorium, atomic number = 90

So,

Number of protons = 90

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 232 - 90 = 142

Pu - 239

Given, Mass number of Plutonium = 239

For Plutonium, atomic number = 94

So,

Number of protons = 94

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons = 239 - 94 = 145

Click on the event or events that led to the formulation of the cell theory

Alexandra [31]

So back in 1665 Robert hook was able to view cells and describe them along with pictures, the reason he was able to see cells was because the microscope was invented a bit before, which allowed him to think about things differently, he was looking at a cork and saw squared objects, these objects were cells, according to him.

So while the cork was the reason he discovers cells on it in the first place,
The microscope was what allowed him to do that

So it’s (HOOKE LOOKING AT A CORK)
And it’s (THE INVENTION OF THE MICROSCOPE)

The great French chemist Antoine Lavoisier discovered the Law of Conservation of Mass in part by doing a famous experiment in 17

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

a. 2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)

b. 0.957 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)

Step 2: Convert 130.0 °C to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15

K = 130.0°C + 273.15

K = 403.2 K

Step 3: Calculate the moles of O₂

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

n = P × V/R × T

n = 1 atm × 0.0730 L/0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 403.2 K

n = 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol

Step 4: Calculate the moles of HgO that produced 2.21 × 10⁻³ moles of O₂

The molar ratio of HgO to O₂ is 2:1. The moles of HgO required are 2/1 × 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol = 4.42 × 10⁻³ mol.

Step 5: Calculate the mass corresponding to 4.42 × 10⁻³ moles of HgO

The molar mass of HgO is 216.59 g/mol.

4.42 × 10⁻³ mol × 216.59 g/mol = 0.957 g

Explain why world food shortages could be reduced by growing more algae.

Sonja [21]

One of the many awe-inspiring things about algae, Professor Greene explains, is that they can grow between ten and 100 times faster than land plants. In view of this speedy growth rate – combined with the fact they can thrive virtually anywhere in the right conditions – growing marine microalgae could provide a variety of solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems.

Take, global warming. Algae sequesters CO2, as we have learned, but owing to the fact they grow faster than land plants, can cover wider areas and can be utilised in bioreactors, they can actually absorb CO2 more effectively than land plants. AI company Hypergiant Industries, for instance, say their algae bioreactor was 400 times more efficient at taking in CO2 than trees.

And it’s not just their nutritional credentials which could solve humanity’s looming food crisis, but how they are produced. Marine microalgae grow in seawater, which means they do not rely on arable land or freshwater, both of which are in limited supply. Professor Greene believes the use of these organisms could therefore release almost three million km2 of cropland for reforestation, and also conserve one fifth of global freshwater
