Answer:
An atom is made of up subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons. The center of an atom is called the nucleus and is where the protons and neutrons are held while electrons orbit the nucleus in orbital shells. A electron has a negative charge, a proton has a positive charge, and a neutron has no charge (neutral).
The atomic number of a atom is the total amount of the atom's protons. In a neutral atom (Not an ion), the amount of electrons is the same as the protons. Therefore, the atomic number also tells the amount of electrons in the atom.
A ion is a negatively or positively charged particle due to the giving or taking of electrons with one or more atoms (Called an ionic bond). An atom that gives away electrons becomes positively charge because that atom now has more protons than neutrons. An atom that takes an electron becomes negatively charge because that atom now has more electrons than protons.
Atomic Mass is the sum of an atom proton and neutrons. To determine how many neutron an atom has, subtract the atomic mass from the atomic number. Electrons do not play a part in atomic mass as their mass is 1/1,836 of a proton's mass.
A isotope is two or more forms of the same element that contain equal amounts of protons but different amount of neutrons.
A. is decomposition so HCL = H2 + Cl2
not balanced cause hcl needs 2
2HCL = H2 + Cl2
balanced
b. Br2 + Al-i = AlBr3 + I2 single rep.
not balanced since br need 3 so watch carefully cause many changes needed
3Br2 + Al-i = AlBr3 + I2 not right is unbalanced so make it 2
3Br2 + Al-i = 2AlBr3 + I2 now left Al is unbal. so make 2 there
3Br2 + 2Ali = 2AlBr3 + I2
Balanced
C. Na + S = Na2S synthesis reaction is not bal. left Na needs 2
2Na + S = Na2S balanced.
<span>0.925 grams if using hydrochloric acid in the reaction.
0.462 grams if using sulfuric acid in the reaction.
0.000 grams if using nitric acid in the reaction.
Assuming you're using HCl or a similar acid for this reaction, the equation for the reaction is:
Zn + 2 HCl ==> ZnCl2 + H2
So each mole of zinc used, produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas, or 2 moles of hydrogen atoms. So we need to look up the atomic weights of both zinc and hydrogen.
Atomic weight zinc = 65.38
Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794
Moles zinc = 30.0 g / 65.38 g/mol = 0.458855919 mol
Since we produce 2 moles of hydrogen atoms per mole of zinc, multiply by 2 and the atomic weight of hydrogen to get the mass of hydrogen produced. So
0.458855919 * 2 * 1.00794 = 0.92499847 grams.
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 0.925 grams.
To show the assumption of the acid used, the balanced equation for sulfuric acid would be
Zn2 + H2SO4 ==> Zn(SO4)2 + H2
Which means that for every mole of zinc used, 1 mole of hydrogen gas is generated (half that produced via hydrochloric acid).
If nitric acid were used, the reaction is
4Zn + 10HNO3 ==> 4Zn(NO3)2 + N2O + 5H2O
Which means that NO hydrogen gas is generated.
The only justification for assuming hydrochloric acid is used is that it's a fairly common acid that's easy to obtain. But as shown above with 2 alternative acids, the amount of hydrogen gas generated is very dependent upon the exact chemical reaction occurring and asking "How many grams of hydrogen are produced if 30.0 g of zinc reacts?" is a rather silly question unless you specify EXACTLY what the reaction is.</span>
