Select the correct answer. What is the number of protons in this carbon atom? A. 12 B. 6 C. 18 D. 24
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is

C. 6 Protons

Explanation:

Carbon is a nonmetallic element that is available in  both organic and inorganic compounds.

    Carbon belongs to group 14 elements in the periodic table,carbon is a chemical element with the symbol C and atomic number 6, it can  form long chains with its own atoms, a feature called catenation.

Two allotropes of carbon available are diamonds and graphites, which have different crystalline structures

The physical properties of carbon vary widely with the allotropic form.

examples are.

  1. Graphite, diamonds and coal are all nearly pure forms of carbon
  2. Diamond is highly transparent. Graphite is opaque and black
  3. Diamond is one of the hardest substances known to man. Graphite is soft and often used as the "lead" in lead pencils
  4. Diamond has a very low electrical conductivity. Graphite is a very good conductor
  5. Very brittle, and cannot be rolled into wires or pounded into sheets

How many grams are in 3.40 x 10^24 molecules of CH4
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

90.37 g

Explanation:

From Avogadro Number,

1 mole of every substance contains a particle number of 6.02×10²³

From the question,

1 mole of CH₄ contains 6.02×10²³ molecules.

But,

1 mole of CH₄ has a mass of 16 g

Therefore,

16 g of CH₄ contains 6.02×10²³ molecules

Then,

Y g will contain 3.4×10²⁴ molecules

Solve for Y

Y = (16× 3.4×10²⁴)/(6.02×10²³)

Y = 90.37 g

Iron is extracted from fe 2o 3 by a reaction with carbon (c) at very high temperature. if you take 2.86 x 10 4 g of fe 2o 3 to r
umka21 [38]
Balanced equation:
2 Fe₂O₃ + 3 C → 4 Fe + 3 CO₂
number of moles of Fe₂O₃ = weight (g) / molar mass = (2.86 x 10⁴ g) / 159.69 g/mol = 179 moles
number of moles of C = (9.05 x 10³) / 12 = 754.16 moles
2 moles of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3 moles of C
so 179 moles of Fe₂O₃ need 268.5 moles of C only
so carbon present in excess (754.16) and Fe₂O₃ is the limiting reactant so the number of moles used from Fe₂O₃ will be all the 179 moles

The category the ion PO43- belong to.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: C.) polyatomic anion

Explanation: Cations are the ions which carry a positive charge and anions are the ions which carry a negative charge. Monoatomic ions are those which consists atoms of similar elements and polyatomic ions are those which consists of atoms of different elements.

For example : H^+ is a monoatomic cation.

Br^- is an monoatomic anion.

NH_4^+ is a polyatomic cation.

PO_4^{3-} is a polyatomic anion as it consists of atoms of phosphorous and oxygen and bears a negative charge.
