A semiconductor is a substance, usually a solid chemical element or compound, that can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others, making it a good medium for the control of electrical current. Silicon is a very common element -- for example, it is the main element in sand and quartz.

svet-max [94.6K]
From the given pH, we calculate the concentration of H+:
     [H+] = 10^-pH = 10^-5.5
We then use the volume to solve for the number of moles of H+:
     moles H+ = 10^-5.5M * 4.3x10^9 L =  13598 moles
From the balanced equation of the neutralization of hydrogen ion by limestone written as
     CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq)  → Ca2+(aq) + H2CO3(aq)
we use the mole ratio of limestone CaCO3 and H+ from their coefficients, which is 1 mole of CaCO3 is to react with 2 moles of H+, to compute for the mass of the limestone:
     mass CaCO3 = 13598mol H+(1mol CaCO3/2mol H+)
                               (100.0869g CaCO3/1mol CaCO3)(1kg/1000g) 
                            = 680 kg

In the uncatalyzed reaction N2O4 (g) ⇌ 2 NO2 (g) the pressure of the gases at equilibrium are PN2O4 = 0.377 atm and PNO2 = 1.56
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The pressures will remain at the same value.

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance that alter the rate of a chemical reaction. It either speeds up the or slows down the rate of a chemical reaction.

While a catalyst affects the rate, it is noteworthy that it has no effect on the equilibrium position of the chemical reaction. A catalyst works by creating an alternative pathway for the reaction to proceed. Most times, it decreases the activation energy needed to kickstart the chemical reaction.

Hence, we know that it has no effect on the equilibrium position. Factors affecting equilibrium position includes, temperature and concentration of reactants and products( pressure in terms of gases).

The reactants and the products here are gaseous, and as such pressure affects the equilibrium position. Now, we have established that the equilibrium position is unaffected. And as such the pressure affecting it does not change.

Thus, we have established that the pressure of the products and reactants are unaffected and as such they remain at their value unaffected.

In comparing two isotopes of the same element, the atomic number, stays the same.

Allow me to explain: The protons in an isotope ALWAYS stays the same, but the neutrons change. But, what's the atomic number made up of? 

Protons, which means it won't change. 

However, the atomic mass is made up of neutrons + protons, so only the atomic mass would change - not the atomic number.
