Chemistry

Answer:

b. The number of electrons

Explanation:

A "neutral atom" has a <u>neutral charge</u>. This means that <em>its charge is equal to </em><em>zero. </em>In order for the charges to cancel out each other, the atom's <em>positive charge should be equal to the negative charge. </em>These being said, the number of electrons<em> (negatively-charged)</em> is then equal to the number of protons <em>(positively-charged). </em>Those atoms which are not neutral are called <em>"ions."</em> This means that they either have more or less electrons than the protons.

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

second law of thermodynamics.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics deals with interconversion of energy from one form to another. Although energy can be converted from one form to another, this conversion is never 100% efficient because energy is lost in certain ways such as through heat. In a combustion engine, it is not possible to recover the energy from the gasoline 100% since energy must be lost along the way via such means as heat losses. Hence I will be skeptical about such an advert.

A. what is the hybridization of the central atom in cse2?
elixir [45]

The orbital hybridization of the central carbon atom in CSe2 is sp.

In chemical bonding, atomic orbitals may be combined to form appropriate hybrid orbitals suitable for bonding. The orbitals that combine during hybridization must be close enough in energy.

In the compound Cse2, carbon is the central atom bonded to two selenium atoms. The carbon atom in CSe2 is sp hybridized.

4. A student purified a 500-mg sample of phthalic acid by recrystallization from water. The published solubility of phthalic aci
kupik [55]

Answer:

2.77 mL of boiling water is the minimum amount which will dissolve 500 mg of phthalic acid.

Explanation:

We know from the problem that 18 g of phthalic acid are dissolved in 100 mL of water at 99 °C.

Now we devise the following reasoning:

If          18 g of phthalic acid are dissolved in 100 mL of water at 99 °C

Then   0.5 g of phthalic acid are dissolved in X mL of water at 99 °C

X = (0.5 × 100) / 18 = 2.77 mL of water
