An atom's Lewis dot structure has four dots. Which of the following elements could it be, and why?

Chemistry

castortr0y [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: The atom that it would be would be beryllium. This is because a Lewis dot structure counts the electrons. If there is four electrons, than there is 4 protons, unless it is a cation or anion. This means the atom has an atomic  number of 4 and that element is beryllium.

If a sample containing 18.1 g of NH3 is reacted with 90.4 g of
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

3.64g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of NH₃  = 18.1g

Mass of Cu₂O  = 90.4g

Unknown:

Limiting reactant  = ?

Mass of N₂ formed  = ?

Solution:

The reaction equation is given as:

       Cu₂O + 2NH₃ → 6Cu + N₂ + 3H₂O

The limiting reactant is the one in short supply in the reaction. Let us find the number of moles of the given species;

  Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}  

Molar mass of Cu₂O = 2(63.6) + 16  = 143.2g/mol

Molar mass of NH₃  = 14 + 3(1) = 17g/mol

Number of moles of Cu₂O = \frac{18.1}{143.2}   = 0.13moles

Number of moles of NH₃   = \frac{90.4}{17}   = 5.32moles

  From this reaction;

       1 mole of  Cu₂O combines with 2 mole of NH₃

So   0.13moles of  Cu₂O will combine with 0.13 x 2 mole of NH₃

                                              = 0.26moles of NH₃

Therefore, Cu₂O is the limiting reactant. Ammonia is in excess;

Mass of N₂;

   Mass = number of moles x molar mass

    1 mole of Cu₂O  will produce 1 mole of N₂

    0.13 mole of Cu₂O  will produce 0.13 mole of N₂

    Mass  = 0.13 x (2 x 14) = 3.64g

The acid dissociation constant ka for an unknown acid ha is 4.57 x 10^-3 what is the base dissociation constant kb for th econju
SashulF [63]

Answer:

2.19 x 10^-12.

Explanation:-

The relation between Ka and Kb for an acid and it's conjugate base is

Ka x Kb = Kw where Kw = ionic product of water.

So Kb = 10^-14 / (4.57 x 10 ^ -3)

= 2.19 x 10^-12

What is a atom and what do atom do in the world ​
gayaneshka [121]

In all atoms, the number of protons and the number of electrons is always the same. The number of neutrons is very roughly the same as the number of protons, but sometimes it's rather more. The number of protons in an atom is called the atomic number and it tells you what type of atom you have.

Define intensive properties​
natka813 [3]

Answer:

An intensive property is a property of matter that does not change as the amount of matter changes. It is a bulk property, which means it is a physical property that is not dependent on the size or mass of a sample.

In contrast, an extensive property is one that does depend on sample size. Examples of extensive properties include mass and volume.
