Answer:
20
Explanation:
Atoms have the same amount of electrons as they have protons. Therefore, if an atoms has 20 protons, it should have 20 electrons.
Protons and electrons i got it right
Chemistry is the study of substances—that is, elements and compounds.
<em>Answer:</em>
<em>Chemical equations must be balanced to satisfy the law of conservation of matter, that states that matter cannot be produced or destroyed in a closed system. The law of conservation of mass governs the balancing of a chemical equation.</em>
Explanation:
The correct answer is 0.15.
We are aware that there is 0.05 mol of an unidentified hydrocarbon we will refer to as "X" and that its burning produces 6.6 g of carbon dioxide and 3.6 g of water.
These quantities might be converted to moles by applying the following formula:
amount= mass/ relative atomic mass
Thus, the following equation may be written for H2O: moles = 3.6 / 18 = 0.2 and for CO2: moles = 6.6 / 44 = 0.15.
0.05X + x'O2 = 0.15CO2 + 0.2H2O
This may be made simpler by dividing through by 0.05 (this step is likely to be the most helpful to you), resulting in:
1 x + x O2 = 3 co2 + 4 H2O
The hydrocarbon must have been the source of all the carbon in the carbon dioxide and all the hydrogen in the water.
Accordingly, 4 x 2 = 8 moles of H and 3 x 1 = 3 moles of C.
There are 3/1 = 3 Cs and 8/1 = 8 Hs in one X molecule.
This clearly identifies C3H8 or propane as the hydrocarbon X (dividing by 1 seems unnecessary, but it illustrates the process to use if there were more than one mol of X in the first equation).
