The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus : 92 and 146

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Mass number = 238

Atomic number = 92

Required

Protons and neutrons

Solution

Mass number=number of protons + neutrons

Atomic number=number of protons=number of electrons

Atomic number = 92⇒number of protons=92

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

Number of neutrons = 238 - 92 = 146

Rank the following acids in order of increasing acid strength. Key: Weakening of hydrogen bond and stability of resulting anion.

raketka [301]

Explanation:

The given compounds are oxyacids and in these compounds more is the electronegativity of the central atom more will be its acidic strength.

This is because more is the electronegativity of the central atom more will be the polarity of OH bond. As a result, the compound can readily lose $H^{+}$ ion.

Also, more is the electronegativity of central atom more will be the stability of conjugate base formed.

Thus, we can conclude that given compounds are arranged in increasing acid strength as follows.

HOI < $HOBr_{2}$ < $HOCl_{3}$ < HOF

How many moles of ammonia are there in a 346 g sample of pure nh3?

Citrus2011 [14]

Molar mass NH3 = 17.031 g/mol

1 mole NH3 -------------- 17.031 g
?? moles NH3 ---------- 346 g

346 x 1 / 17.031

=> 20.31 moles of NH3

4. Why does the metallic character of the alkaline earth metals increase as you go down the

tino4ka555 [31]

As you proceed down the periodic table, the metallic character becomes stronger. This is because as the atomic radius increases, there is less attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons due to the greater distance between them, making electrons simpler to shed.
