Answer:

in nuclear fission, an unstable atom splits into 2 or more smaller pieces that are more stable and releases energy in the process. the fission process also releases extra neutrons which can split additional atoms, resulting in a chain reaction that releases a lot of energy

Identify the solute with the highest van't Hoff factor. And how do you determine which one is highest?
german

Answer : The correct option is, (A) AlCl_3

Explanation :

Van't Hoff factor : It is defined as the ratio of the experimental value of the colligative property to the calculated value of the colligative property.

We can determine the van't Hoff factor by the association and dissociation of the compound.

(A) AlCl_3

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give aluminum ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of AlCl_3 will be,

AlCl_3\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-} = 1 + 3 = 4

(B) KI

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give potassium ion and iodide ion.

The dissociation of KI will be,

KI\rightarrow K^{+}+I^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = K^{+}+I^{-} = 1 + 1 = 2

(C) CaCl_2

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give calcium ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of CaCl_2 will be,

CaCl_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-} = 1 + 2 = 3

(D) MgSO_4

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give magnesium ion and sulfate ion.

The dissociation of MgSO_4 will be,

MgSO_4\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-} = 1 + 1 = 2

(E) Non-electrolyte

The dissociation non-electrolyte is not possible. So, the Van't Hoff factor will always be, 1.

Hence, the highest van't Hoff factor of solute is, AlCl_3

How many grams of neutral salt will be obtained in the reaction of calcium oxide with 200 cm 3 of phosphoric acid solution whose
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

9.3 g of Ca3(PO4)2

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

3CaO + 2H3PO4 —> Ca3(PO4)2 + 3H2O

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of H3PO4 present in 200 cm³ of 0.3 mol/dm³ phosphoric acid (H3PO4) solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Molarity of H3PO4 = 0.3 mol/dm³

Volume = 200 cm³ = 200 cm³/1000 = 0.2 dm³

Mole of H3PO4 =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.3 = mole of H3PO4 /0.2

Cross multiply

Mole of H3PO4 = 0.3 × 0.2

Mole of H3PO4 = 0.06 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of the salt, Ca3(PO4)2, obtained from the reaction. This can be obtained as shown below:

3CaO + 2H3PO4 —> Ca3(PO4)2 + 3H2O

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of H3PO4 reacted to produced 1 mole of Ca3(PO4)2.

Therefore, 0.06 moles of H3PO4 will react to produce = (0.06 × 1)/2 = 0.03 mole of Ca3(PO4)2.

Thus, 0.03 mole of Ca3(PO4)2 is produced from the reaction.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced as follow:

Mole of Ca3(PO4)2 = 0.03 mole

Molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = (40×3) + 2[31 + (16×4)]

= 120 + 2[31 + 64]

= 120 + 2[95]

= 120 + 190

= 310 g/mol

Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

0.03 = mass of Ca3(PO4)2 / 310

Cross multiply

Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = 0.03 × 310

Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = 9.3 g

Thus, 9.3 g of Ca3(PO4)2 was obtained from the reaction.

15. An electrically neutral atom consists of 15 neutrons, 13 electrons, and a number of protons. What is its mass number?​
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

28

Explanation:

it states that the atom is neutral, meaning the number of electrons and protons are the same. so if there are 13 electrons, there are 13 protons. And the mass number is neutrons plus protons. So 13+15 is 28

What is the correct iupac name of CH3-CH2-CH2CHO ?
kow [346]

the correct IUPAC name of the compound is 1-Butanal.

<h3>What are IUPAC names?</h3>

It is a system of naming organic compounds based on the longest carbon-to-carbon single bonds. It does not matter whether these longest chains are continuous or in a ring.

Thus, when the compound with the chemical formula, CH3-CH2-CH2CHO is considered. The longest carbon-to-carbon chain is 4. The 1st carbon carries a functional group known as an aldehyde.

Aldehydes are equipped with the carbonyl group and have the general formula R−CH=O. They are also sometimes referred to as formyl.

Aldehydes are named after their parent alkane chains with a slight modification. The 'e' is replaced with 'al'

The aldehyde in this case has four carbons. This means that the parent alkane is Butane. Therefore, the name of the compound will be 1-Butanal.
