Most atoms have no net charge because they have

Atoms are electrically neutral because they contain equal quantities of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Electrons and protons have equal but opposite charges, so the result is no net charge.

Atoms have no electric charge because the protons and electrons "cancel out" each others charges. Neutrons have no charge. What is the atomic number of an element? The atomic number is the number of protons in the atom's nucleus.

Hope this helps have a great day :)

Liula [17]

Answer:

each continent shifts 2-5 inches per year so once it was joined then it is what it is now.In a million years again it will comes closer and wjo knows what will happen.moutains will be formed as the tectonic plates will collide.

How many particles are in 23 g of H 2 O?

Sedaia [141]

1 mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 1023 particles.

⚛ 6.022 × 1023 is known as the Avogadro Number or Avogadro Constant and is given the symbol NA

N = n × NA

· N = number of particles in the substance

· n = amount of substance in moles (mol)

· NA = Avogardro Number = 6.022 × 10^23 particles mol-1

For H2O we have:

2 H at 1.0 each = 2.0 amu
1 O at 16.0 each = 16.0 amu
Total for H2O = 18.0 amu, or grams/mole

It takes 18 grams of H2O to obtain 1 mole, or 6.02 x 1023 molecules of water. Think about that before we answer the question. We have 25.0 grams of water, so we have more than one mole of water molecules. To find the exact number, divide the available mass (25.0g) by the molar mass (18.0g/mole). Watch how the units work out. The grams cancel and moles moves to the top, leaving moles of water. [g/(g/mole) = moles].

Here we have 25.0 g/(18.0g/mole) = 1.39 moles water (3 sig figs).

Multiply 1.39 moles times the definition of a mole to arrive at the actual number of water molecules:

1.39 (moles water) * 6.02 x 1023 molecules water/(mole water) = 8.36 x 1023 molecules water.

That's slightly above Avogadro's number, which is what we expected. Keeping the units in the calculations is annoying, I know, but it helps guide the operations and if you wind up with the unit desired, there is a good chance you've done the problem correctly.

N = n × (6.022 × 10^23)

1 grams H2O is equal to 0.055508435061792 mol.

Then 23 g of H2O is 1.2767 mol

To calculate the number of particles, N, in a substance:

N = n × NA

N = 1.2767 × (6.022 × 10^23)

N= 176.26

N=

A 2.684-g sample of zinc oxide was reduced by hydrogen gas, resulting in 2. 156 g of pure zinc metal. Determine the empirical fo

Afina-wow [57]

The empirical formula of the initial zinc oxide is ZnO.

<h3>What is Empirical Formula?</h3>

The empirical formula of a compound represents the ratios of elements in a compound but not the actual numbers or arrangement of the atoms.

It is the lowest whole number ratio of the element in the compound.

<h3>How to find out the empirical formula?</h3>

Find out the given masses and molar masses of the elements

The molar mass of Zn = 65 gmol⁻¹

Given the mass of Zn = 2.156 g

The molar mass of Oxygen = 16 gmol⁻¹

The mass of Oxygen = Mass of a sample of zinc oxide - the mass of zinc metal

= (2.684 - 2.156) g

= 0.528 g

Find the number of moles of the elements in the compound

The number of moles is given by

$n = \frac{m}{M}$

where m = given mass and

M = Molar mass

Number of moles of Zinc = $\frac{2.156}{65}$ = 0.033 moles

Number of moles of Oxygen = $\frac{0.528}{16}$ = 0.033 moles

Find the simplest ratios of the elements in the compound. To find the ratios simply divide the number of moles by the lowest number of moles obtained.

Here, the number of moles is the same for both elements. Hence, the simplest ratio for Zn:O is 1:1.

Therefore, the empirical formula of zinc oxide is ZnO.

Acetic acid and water react to form hydronium cation and acetate anion, like this:

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The answer is "Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction".

Explanation:

It applies a rate of reaction to the balance, a forward response dominates until it reaches a constant. This process is balanced before 52 mmol of the reactant $HC H_{3} \ CO_2$ , to which 3 is added. In balance, that rate of the forward reaction was its rate with forwarding reaction, both of which are higher than 0 as the response has achieved balance so that both species get a level greater than 0.
