Chemistry
1 answer:
zloy xaker [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Mass number (A) is the number of nucleons (proton and neutron) present in a atom.

Explanation:

electrons don't cout since they are thousandth's of the mass of protons or neutrons

6. An environmental chemist needs a carbonate buffer of pH 10.00 to study the effects of acid rain on limestone-rich soils. To p
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

[Na₂CO₃] = 0.094M

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

HCO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ↔ CO₃²⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)

It is possible to find pH using Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

Where [A⁻] is concentration of conjugate base,  [CO₃²⁻] = [Na₂CO₃] and  [HA] is concentration of weak acid, [NaHCO₃] = 0.20M.

pH is desire pH and pKa (<em>10.00</em>) is -log pka = -log 4.7x10⁻¹¹ = <em>10.33</em>

<em />

Replacing these values:

10.00 = 10.33 + log₁₀ [Na₂CO₃] / [0.20]

<em> [Na₂CO₃] = 0.094M</em>

<em />

In an ionic compound, the size of the ions affects the internuclear distance (the distance between the centers of adjacent ions)
Elena L [17]

Answer:

RbI<RbBr<RbCl<RbF

Explanation:

As stated in the question, the latice energy depends on the relative size of the ions. When the action size is constant as in the question, the lattice energy now depends on the relative of the anions. The order of increase in ionic sizes among the halide ions is fluoride<Chloride<Bromide<Iodide. This order of increasing size means that the lattice energy will decrease accordingly as shown in the answer.

How can i find the number of electrons are gained or lost
wel

15. 1 were lost

16. 3 were gained

17. 2 were lost

18. 1 was gained

You can figure that out by looking at the number nest to the molecule with a  plus or minus sign next to it

+ = gained

- = lost
