Dalton assumed that all atoms of the same element were identical in all their properties. Explain why this assumption is not val

jeka57 [31]

This assumption is not valid because, there are some elements which exist in two or more forms; they have the same atomic number but differ in their mass number, which meas that they possess different number of neutrons. These type of element are called isotopes. Isotope have the same atomic number and similar physical and chemical properties but they have different number of neutrons and therefore possess different masses.

La formula quimica de la molecula de agua H20 , si H = 1 gramos y O = 16 gramos . Cual es su composicion porcentual ? 88,88 % de

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

88,88 % de O y 11,11 % de H

Explanation:

La composición porcentual se define como la masa que hay de cada mol de átomo en 100g. Las moles de agua en 100g son:

<em>Masa molar agua:</em>

2H = 2*1g/mol = 2g/mol

1O = 1*16g/mol = 16g/mol

Masa molar = 2 + 16 = 18g/mol

100g H2O * (1mol / 18g) = 5.556 moles H2O.

Moles de hidrógeno:

5.556 moles H2O * (2mol H / 1mol H2O) = 11.11 moles H

Moles Oxígeno = Moles H2O = 5.556 moles

La masa de hidrógeno es:

11.11mol * (1g/mol) 11.11g H

La masa de oxígeno es:

5.556 mol * (16g / 1mol) = 88.89g O

Así, el porcentaje de O es 88.89% y el de H es 11.11%. La opción correcta es:

For each value of the principal quantum number n, what are the possible values of the electron spin quantum number?

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The values for spin quantum number +1/2 and - 1/2

Explanation:

Principal quantum number denoted by (n) is used to describe the shell or orbits that electrons are found. Principal quantum number can assume a value of n= 1,2, 3, 4,5............ which indicates K, L, M, N, O shell respectively.

To know the maximum number of electrons in each shell, the formula (2n²) can be used. The letter 'n' denotes the values of principal quantum number 1,2,3,4

For example

n=1 (K shell) has maximum number of 2 electrons
n=2 (L shell) has the maximum number of 8 electrons
n=3 (M shell) has the maximum number of 18 electrons
n=4 (N shell) has the maximum number of 32 electrons

All the electron in each shell will have a spin quantum number of +1/2 and - 1/2. One electron in each degenerate orbital will spin up (+1/2) while the other electron will spin down (-1/2).

4.50 g of a certain Compound X, known to be made of carbon, hydrogen and perhaps oxygen, and to have a molecular molar mass of 1

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

$\mathbf{C_{10}H_8}$ ( Naphthalene )

Explanation:

Given that:

4.50 g of a Compound X is made up of Carbon , Hydron and Oxygen

It's molecular molar mass = 128 g/mol

Compound X undergoes combustion reaction and the product yield :

CO_2 with mass 15.47g and :

H_2O with mass 2.53 g

The objective is to use this information to determine the molecular formula of X.

We all know that ; number of moles = mass/molar mass

where the molar mass of H_2O is 18 g/mol

number of moles of H_2O product = 2.53 g/18 g/mol

number of moles of H_2O product = 0.1406 moles

Also; the molar mass of CO_2 product = 44 g/mol

number of moles of CO_2 product = 15.47g/ 44 g/mol

number of moles of CO_2 product = 0.3516 moles

number of moles of Compound X in the reactant side= 4.50 g /128 g/mol

number of moles of Compound X n the reactant side= 0.03516 moles

Now; number number of moles of CO_2 in reactant = 0.3516 moles/0.03516 moles

Now; number number of moles of CO_2 in reactant = 10

number of moles of H_2O reactant = 0.1406 moles × 2/0.03516

number of moles of H_2O reactant = 7.997 ≅ 8

Since we said the Compound X is known to be made of Carbon C , Hydrogen H and Oxygen O

Then the molecular formula can be written as :

$\mathbf{C_{10}H_8O_{x}}$

In order to find the x; we have

128 = (12 × 10 + 1 × 8 + 16 × x)

128 = 120 + 8 + 16x)

128 = 128 + 16 x

128 - 128 = 16 x

0 = 16 x

x = 0/16

x = 0

As x = 0 ; hence there are no oxygen present in the reaction

Thus; the molecular formula of Compound X = $\mathbf{C_{10}H_8}$ which is also known as Naphthalene

I need help with 17

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer and explanation:

A chemical change occurs when new substances or materials are produced to have different chemical properties from the reactants.

Some examples of this are paper burning, fruit rotting, and metal rusting.
