ozzi3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

2.38x10²³ atoms oxygen

Explanation:

To solve this question we need to convert the mass of sand to moles using its molar mass (Molar mass SiO₂ = 60.08g/mol). Twice these moles are the moles of Oxygen and using Avogadro's number we can find the amount of atoms of Oxygen in the mixture:

<em>Moles SiO₂:</em>

11.87g * (1mol / 60.08g) = 0.1976moles SiO₂

<em>Moles Oxygen:</em>

0.1976moles SiO₂* 2 = 0.3951moles oxygen

<em>Atoms oxygen:</em>

0.3951moles oxygen * (6.022x10²³atoms / 1mol O₂) =

<h3>2.38x10²³ atoms oxygen</h3>

What’s the electron configuration of an N-3 ion
Alla [95]

Answer:

1s2 2s2 2p6

Explanation:

The nitride ion(N^3-) is formed when nitrogen gains three electrons. Nitrogen possesses seven electrons in its orbitals and ordinarily has the electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p3. However,being in group 15, nitrogen can accept three electrons to form the nitride ion and complete its octet of electrons. When this happens, three electrons are added to the nitrogen atom and the electronic configuration is now the same as that of Neon, its closest noble gas which is 1s2 2s2 2p6. Hence the answer given above.

Elements can accept or donate electrons in order to complete their octet structure in accordance to the octet rule which states that atoms and ions must possess eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to attain chemical stability. The reason for ion formation and chemical reaction is in order for species to attain the octet structure.

what is the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons when cesium is exposed to uv rays of frequency 1.4×1015hz?
Anika [276]
<span>The equation you used is KE=hv-hv0, where h=6.63*10^-34 (constant). You multiply h by 1.5*10^15. Multiply h by the threshold freq of cesium (from part A). Subtract the second answer from the first answer, and you get the kinetic energy. Hope this helps.</span>
