5 0

Answer:

Answer:

                   Potassium Nitride is composed of the greatest number of atoms.

Explanation:

                   

find the number of atoms present in each compound we will write down their molecular formulas and then we will add up the number of atoms present in them.

A: Dinitrogen Monoxide:

                                       Chemical formula of Dinitrogen Monoxide is N₂O. Therefore, it contains two atoms of Nitrogen and one atom of oxygen Hence, in total it contains 3 atoms.

B: Sodium Chloride:

                               Chemical formula of Sodium Chloride is NaCl. Therefore, it contains one atom of Sodium and one atom of Chlorine Hence, in total it contains 2 atoms.

C: Potassium Nitride:

                                       Chemical formula of Dinitrogen Monoxide is K₃N. Therefore, it contains three atoms of Potassium and one atom of Nitrogen Hence, in total it contains 4 atoms.

D: Carbon Dioxide:

                               Chemical formula of Carbon Dioxide is CO₂. Therefore, it contains one atom of Carbon and two atoms of Oxygen Hence, in total it contains 3 atoms.

Which part of an atom is involved in chemical reactions?
torisob [31]

Answer: Valence electrons are involved in a chemical reaction.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction takes place when there is an involvement of valence electrons. Bond formation involves either sharing of valence electrons or transfer of valence electrons. Bond breaking involves the separation of valence electrons.

When valence electrons are shared between the atoms, it leads to the formation of covalent bond.

When transfer of electrons takes place from one atom to another atom, it leads to the formation of ionic bond.

Hence, valence electrons are involved in a chemical reaction.

A gas occupies 3.5L at 2.5 atm of pressure. What is the volume at 787 torr at the same temperature?
Kitty [74]

Answer: 8.45 L

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume (V1) = 3.5L

Initial pressure (P1) = 2.5 atm

[Since final pressure is given in torr, convert 2.5 atm to torr

If 1 atm = 760 torr

2.5 atm = 2.5 x 760 = 1900 torr

Final volume (V2) = ?

Final pressure (P2) = 787 torr

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature remains the same, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

3.5L x 1900 torr = 787 torr x V2

6650L•torr = 787 torr•V2

Divide both sides by 787 torr

6650L•torr/787 torr = 787 torr•V2/787 torr

8.45 L = V2

Thus, the volume of the gas at 787 torr and at the same temperature is 8.45 Liters

Calculate the mole fraction of the total ions in an aqueous solution prepared by dissolving 0.400 moles of CaI2 in 850.0 g of wa
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

0.00840

Explanation:

The computation of the mole fraction is as follow:

As we know that

Molar mass = Number of grams ÷ number of moles

Or

number of moles = Number of grams ÷ molar mass

Given that

Number of moles of CaI2 = 0.400

And, Molar mass of water = 18.0 g/mol

Now  Number of moles of water is

= 850.0 g ÷ 18.0 g/mol

= 47.22 mol

And, Total number of moles is

= 0.400 + 47.22

= 47.62

So, Molar fraction of CaI2 is

= 0.400 ÷ 47.62

= 0.00840
