Answer is: mass of the ore is 8.54kg.<span>

</span>ω(Ca₃(PO₄)₂ - calcium phosphate) = 58.6% ÷ 100% = 0.586.
m(P) = 1.00 kg · 1000 g/kg.
m(P) = 1000 g.
In one molecule of calcium phosphate there are two phosphorus atoms:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 310.18 g/mol.
M(P) = 30.97 g/mol.
For one kilogram of phosphorus, we need:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 2M(P) = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(P).
310.18 g/mol : 61.94 g/mol = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 1000 g.
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 5007.75 g ÷ 1000 g/kg = 5.007 kg.
Mass of ore find from proportion:
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(ore) = 56% : 100%.
m(ore) = 100% · 5.007 kg ÷ 58.6%.
m(ore) = 8.54kg.

An atom has 81 electrons, 84 neutrons, and 82 protons. What element is this atom?
posledela

Answer:

Lead

Explanation:

The subatomic particles within an atom can be used to know the atom or element given.

Of particular interest is the number of protons within the atom.

The periodic table is based on the atomic number of atoms. This atomic number is the number of protons within an atomic space.

So; If we know the number of protons within an atom, we can know the element.

The number of protons given is 82, the element is  therefore lead.

In an ion with an unknown charge, the total mass of all the electrons was determined to be 2.19 ✕ 10−26 g, while the total mass
Ilya [14]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{Fe$^{{2+}}$}}

Explanation:

1. Number of electrons

\text{Number of electrons} = 2.19 \times 10^{-26}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 electron}}{9.109 \times 10^{-28}\text{ g}} = \text{24 electrons}

2. Number of protons

\text{Number of protons} = 4.34 \times 10^{-23}\text{ g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 proton}}{1.673 \times 10^{-24}\text{ g}} = \text{26 protons}

3. Identify the ion

An atom with 26 protons is iron, Fe.

A neutral atom of iron would have 26 electrons.

The ion has only 24 electrons, so it has lost two. The ion must have a charge of +2.

\text{The symbol for the ion is $\large \boxed{\textbf{Fe$^{\mathbf{2+}}$}}$}
