Answer:

Magnesium

0.003mole

Explanation:

The problem here entails we find the metal in the carbonate.

 For group 2 member, let the metal  = X;

 The carbonate is XCO₃;

 If we sum the atomic mass of the elements in the metal carbonate, we should arrive at 84g/mol

 Atomic mass of C = 12g/mol

                            O  = 16g/mol

 Atomic mass of X + 12 + 3(16)  = 84

  Atomic mass of X  = 84 - 60  = 24g/mol

The element with atomic mass of 24g is Magnesium

B.

Number of moles in 0.3g of CaCO₃:

     Molar mass of CaCO₃   = 40 + 12 + 3(16)  = 100g/mol

 Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}  

 Number of moles  = \frac{0.3}{100}   = 0.003mole

Sodium has an atomic number of 11 and an atomic mass of 23. sodium has __________.
seraphim [82]

Sodium has 11 protons, therefore number of neutrons must be 23 – 11 = 12 neutrons.

Sodium has 12 neutrons.

<h3>What are neutrons?</h3>

The neutron is a subatomic particle with the symbol n that is slightly heavier than a proton and has a neutral charge (i.e., neither a positive nor a negative charge). Atoms' nuclei are made up of protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are both referred to as nucleons because of how similarly they function inside the nucleus and because they both have masses that are about equal to one atomic mass unit. Nuclear physics describes their characteristics and interactions.

The arrangement of electrons around an atom's hefty nucleus largely determines its chemical characteristics. The amount of protons, or atomic number, determines the charge of the nucleus, which determines the electron configuration.

Which formula represents the compound commonly known as phosphine with iupac name phosphorus trihydride? ph ph2 ph3 ph4
zubka84 [21]

C. PH3 represents a compound commonly known as phosphine, whose IUPAC name is phosphorus trihydride.

<h3>What type of bond is PH3?</h3>

The electronegativity of PH3 found in the Periodic Table of the Period attracts covalent electron pairs and creates covalent bonds. However, because the electrons are not bound, asymmetrical rate distribution occurs. Therefore, PH3 is a polar molecule with a non-polar covalent bond and currently has no polar bond.

<h3 /><h3>What defines a covalent bond?</h3>

A covalent bond consists of sharing one or more electron pairs between two atoms. These electrons are attracted to two nuclei at the same time. Covalent bonds are formed when the difference in electronegativity between two atoms is too small for electron transfer to form ions.

The rate constant k for a certain reaction is measured at two different temperatures:
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Ea=5.5 Kcal/mole

Explanation:

Let rate constant are K_1  and K_2  at temperature T_1  and T_2

By using Arrhenius equation at two different two different temperature,

Log K_1/K_2 =E_a/2.303R*(1/T_2 -1/T_2 );T_1=273+376=649K  ;K_1=4.8*10^8;T_2=273+280=553K  ;K_2=2.3*10^8;R=2 cal/(mole.K);Log (4.8*10^8)/(2.3*10^8 )=E_a/2.303R*(1/553K-1/649); Log 4.8/2.3=E_a/2.303R*96/358897 ;0.32=E_a/2.303R*96/358897;E_a=(0.32*2.303R*358897)/96;  

By putting value of R=2 cal/mole.K

E_a=5510.265cal/mole;

By rounding off upto 2 significant figure;

E_a=5.5Kcal/mole;
