How many moles are present in 54.8 mL of mercury if the density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL?

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

3.72 mol Hg

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Reading a Periodic Table
Using Dimensional Analysis
Density = Mass over Volume

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

D = 13.6 g/mL

54.8 mL Hg

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of Hg - 200.59 g/mol

Step 3: Find

13.6 g/mL = x g / 54.8 mL

x = 745.28 g Hg

Step 4: Convert

$745.28 \ g \ Hg(\frac{1 \ mol \ Hg}{200.59 \ g \ Hg} )$ = 3.71544 mol Hg

Step 5: Check

We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.

3.71544 mol Hg ≈ 3.72 mol Hg

Write the isotopic symbol for the following (show your work) a) An isotope of iodine whose atoms have 78 neutrons b) An isotope

morpeh [17]

Answer:

For a: The isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b: The isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c: The isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$

Explanation:

The isotopic representation of an atom is: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

For a:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 78

Atomic number of iodine = 53 = Number of protons

Mass number = 53 + 78 = 131

Thus, the isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 82

Atomic number of cesium = 55 = Number of protons

Mass number = 55 + 82 = 137

Thus, the isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 52

Atomic number of strontium = 38 = Number of protons

Mass number = 38 + 52 = 90

Thus, the isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$

Methane CH4 (g) reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water. ____________________________________________________

nordsb [41]

Answer: The chemical equations are written below.

Explanation:

For a: Methane reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water.

Combustion reaction is defined as the reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water

The chemical equation for the combustion of methane follows:

$CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)$

For b: Butane reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water.

This is also an example of combustion reaction.

The chemical equation for the combustion of butane follows:

$2C_4H_{10}(g)+13O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)$

For c: An aqueous solution of sulfuric acid reacts with aqueous potassium hydroxide to produce potassium sulfate and water.

When an acid reacts with a base, it leads to the formation of salt and water. This reaction is known as neutralization reaction

The chemical equation for the reaction of potassium hydroxide and sulfuric acid follows:

$H_2SO_4+2KOH\rightarrow K_2SO_4+2H_2O$

Hence, the chemical equations are written above.

Which element is found in most of the compounds in your body except for water?

Anni [7]

The correct answer is carbon.

The element carbon is found in all the organic constituents in the body of a human that comprises carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and nucleic acids. It is the second most abundant element found in the body of a human being. In supplementation to being a basic building block of the majority of the cellular compositions of the body, carbon is found in the blood as carbonic acid and bicarbonates.
