Out of the choices given, the one that describes a substance whose atoms all have the same number of protons are an element. The correct answer will be B.
Answer:
0.44g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of magnesium hydroxide = 0.645g
Solution
The balanced reaction equation is shown below:
Mg(OH)₂ → MgO + H₂O
From the equation above, we see that the number of atoms are conserved.
To find the mass of magnesium oxide produced, we find the number moles of the decomposed magnesium hydroxide first:
Molar mass of Mg(OH)₂ = 24 + 2(16+1) = 58g/mol
Number of moles of Mg(OH)₂ = 
= 
= 0.011mole
Now, from the balanced equaiton, we know that:
1 mole of Mg(OH)₂ produces 1 mole of MgO
Therefore, 0.011mole of Mg(OH)₂ will produce 0.011mole of MgO
so mass of MgO = number of moles of MgO x molar mass of MgO
Molar mass of MgO = 24 + 16 = 40g/mol
mass of MgO = 0.011 x 40 = 0.44g
Answer:
n = 2.208x10¹⁸ photons
Explanation:
The energy of a photon( an elementary particle) is given by the equation:
E = nxhxf
Where n is the number of photons, h is plank constant (6,62x10⁻³⁴ J.s), and f is the frequency. Knowing that the power level is 0.120mW (1.2x10⁻⁴ W), the energy in J, for a time of 78 min (4680 s)
E = 1.2x10⁻⁴x4680 = 0.5616 J
The frequency of a photon is its velocity ( c= 3x10⁸ m/s) divided by its wavelength, which is 780 nm = 780x10⁻⁹ m
f = 3x10⁸/780x10⁻⁹
f = 3.846x10¹⁴ s⁻¹
Then, the number of photons is:
0.5616 = nx6,62x10⁻³⁴x3.846x10¹⁴
n = 2.208x10¹⁸ photons.
Coffee cools more quickly in a ceramic mug than in a Styrofoam
cup.
Explanation:
Styrofoam is a good insulator, thus for keeping the coffee warm for longer, it is a good choice than ceramic. The process involved in the control of heat dissipation employs the fact that the vapours in the form of gas are entrapped within, they lessen the conduction process between the molecules as a result molecules do not collide hence no energy releases or exchange takes place.
Styrofoam cups are made up of polystyrene foam. As a result of high insulation at styrofoam body conduction is not possible so coffee is warmer for longer.
