Answer:

Explanation:

The number of protons in the atom of the neutral element will also be 24.

Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom.

Electrons are the negatively charged particles

Neutrons do not carry any charges at all

Now, in a neutral atom, the charge is balanced and the number of protons and electrons are the same in the atom.

So, since we have been given that the atom has 24 electrons, the number of protons will be 24.

Why is the Lithium ion (Li+1) stable even though it does not have an octet?

Elan Coil [88]

I think Lithium, an alkali metal with three electrons, is also an exception to the octet rule. Lithium tends to lose one electron to take on the electron configuration of the nearest noble gas, helium, leaving it with two valence electrons. There are two ways in which atoms can satisfy the octet rule

atmospheric pressure at elevations of 8000 feet averages about 0.72 atmospheres. Would a cabin pressurized at 500 mm hg meet fed

NeTakaya

Answer:

Yes, but it must be kept at that value and do not let it to decrease more.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, in order to substantiate whether the cabin meet the federal standards, we need to convert the 500 mmHg to atm and compare the result with 0.72 atm by knowing that 1 atm equals 760 mmHg:

$500mmHg*\frac{1atm}{760mmHg} \\\\=0.66atm$

Thus, since 0.66 atm is 0.06 atm away from the federal standard we can infer that it may meet the federal standard, however, it would not be recommended to let the pressure decrease more than that.

Please help me with this question!!

mestny [16]

Answer: 824.6 g of NaCl are produced from 500.0 g of chlorine.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$ $\text{Moles of} Cl_2=\frac{500.00g}{71g/mol}=7.04moles$

$2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl$

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of $Cl_2$ produce = 2 moles of $NaCl$

Thus 7.04 moles of $Cl_2$ will produce= $\frac{2}{1}\times 7.04=14.08moles$ of $NaCl$

Mass of $NaCl=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=14.08moles\times 58.5g/mol=824.26g$

Thus 824.6 g of NaCl are produced from 500.0 g of chlorine.
