Mercury has an atomic mass of 200.59 amu. calculate the mass of 3.0 x 10^10 atoms

Licemer1 [7]

To determine mass of the given number of atoms of mercury, we need a factor that would relate the number of atoms to number of moles. In this case, we use the Avogadro's number. It is a <span>number that represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. The number of units could be atoms, molecules, ions or electrons. To convert into mass, we use the given amu of mercury since it is equal to grams per mole. We calculate as follows:

</span>3.0 x 10^10 atoms ( 1 mol / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms ) ( 200.59 g / 1 mol ) = 9.99x10^-12 g Hg

"acid is responsible for the odor in rancid butter. a solution of 0.25 m butyric acid has a ph of 2.71. what is the ka for"

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:- The Ka for the acid is $1.53*10^-^5$ .

Solution:- In general, monoprotic acid could be represented by HA. The dissociation equation for the ionization of HA is written as:

HA(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq) + A^-(aq)

Now, we make the ice table for this equation as:

HA(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq) + A^-(aq)

I 0.25 0 0

C -X +X +X

E (0.25 - X) X X

where, I stands for initial concentration, C stands for change in concentration and E stands for equilibrium concentration.

X is the change in concentration and from ice table it's same as the concentration of hydrogen ion that is calculated from given pH.

$Ka = [H^+][A^-]\frac{1}{HA}$

Where, Ka is the acid ionization constant. Let's plug in the values.

$Ka = \frac{X^2}{0.25-X}$

Let's calculate the value of X first using the equation:

$pH = -log[H^+]$ [/tex]

on taking antilog ob above equation we get:

$[H^+]=10^-^p^H$

$[H^+]=10^-^2^.^7^1$

$[H^+]$ = 0.00195

So, X = 0.001195

Let's plug in this value of X in the equation:-

$Ka=\frac{(0.00195)^2}{0.25-0.00195}$

$Ka=1.53*10^-^5$

So, the value of Ka for butyric acid is $1.53*10^-^5$ .

Draw the isotopic notation for an element with 15 protons, 18 neutrons and 18 electrons

tatiyna

Answer:

can't be done

Explanation:

protons and electrons always are the same number,and the neutrons are found by subtracting the atomic mass and protons/electrons soooooooo it can't have 15 protons, 18 electrons, and 18 neutrons.......i hope this helped if not please tell me.

Suppose these substance were placed in a freezer set to -50 grades celsius. Which substance would become a liquid. Clorine, Merc

Vadim26 [7]

Chlorine would become a liquid. Its boiling point is around -34 Celsius so at any temperature below that it would be liquid.
