The question is incomplete, the complete question is shown in the image attached to this answer.

Answer:

139.13

Explanation:

The average atomic mass of the element Likhitium is the sum of the relative abundance of all the isotopes of Likhitium.

We obtain the relative atomic mass of Likhitium as follows;

(44.7/100 * 138) + (52.3/100 * 139) + (0.5/100 * 140) + (2.5/100 * 141)

61.7 + 73.2 + 0.7 + 3.53 = 139.13

Hence the relative abundance of Likhitium is 139.13

Match each part of the electrochemical cell with its function.
umka21 [38]

Hi!


The correct options would be:

1. Cathode - <em>reduction</em>

The cathode is the negatively charged electrode, and so has an excess of electrons. Cations (positively charged ions) are attracted to the cathode, and gain electrons to acquire a neutral charge. The process in which a gain of electron occurs is called reduction.


2. Anode - <em>oxidation</em>

The opposite occurs at the anode which is positively charged and attracts negatively charged ions, anions. These anions lose their electrons at the anode to acquire a neutral charge, and the process involving loss of electrons is known as oxidation.


3. Salt Bridge - <em>ion transport </em>

Salt bridge is a physical connection between the the anodic and cathodic half cells in an electrochemical cell and is a pathway that facilitates the flow of ions back and forth these half cells. Salt bridge is involved in maintaining a neutral condition in the electrochemical cells, and its absence would result in the accumulation of positive charge in the anodic cell, and negative charge in the cathodic cell.


4. Wire - <em>electron transport </em>

Wires have a universal role of being a pathway for the transport of electrons in circuit. This role is also the same in the wires involved in an electrochemical cells where they are used to transport electrons from the anodic half cell, and this electron transport results in the generation of electricity in the internal circuit of the electrochemical cell.


Hope this helps!

A compound formed from titanium and oxygen has the formula TiO2. Which of the following is true about the ratio of number Ti and
Finger [1]

Answer:

2

Explanation:

There are some basic laws that guide the combination of elements chemically. These are the law of conservation of mass, law of definite proportion, law of multiple proportion and the law of reciprocal proportion.

For this question, the useful law to use is the law of definite proportion. Here, it is stated that no matter the method of preparation or source of preparation, the elements of a chemical compound are always present in a fixed ratio.

What this means that at any point in time, the compound titanium dioxide contains one atom of titanium and two atoms of oxygen. This means that both atoms are present at all times in a proportion of 1 to 2 .

Define natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and liquefied natural gas (LNG). What three countries have most of the world’
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

The answer is treated below.

Explanation:

<u>Natural gas</u>: Natural gas is not used in its pure form; it is processed and converted into cleaner fuel for consumption. It is a fossil fuel composed almost entirely of methane, but contain small amounts of other gases, including ethane, propane, pentane and butane. It is a combustible,  gaseous mixture of simple hydrocarbon compounds, usually found in deep  underground reservoirs formed by porous rock. Natural gas is mainly used as fuel for generating  heat  and electricity.

<u>Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)</u>: Liquefied Petroleum Gas is a byproduct of natural gas and oil extraction and crude oil refining . At room temperature,  liquefied petroleum gas is a colourless and odourless gas which consists generally of butane (C4H10) or propane (C3H8) or a mixture of both.

<u>Liquefied natural gas (LNG)</u>: Is natural gas that has been liquefied for ease of transport or storage. It is refrigerated to a very low temperature (-162 Celsius). At this temperature it becomes an odourless, non-toxic liquid that can be safely transported over long distances.

<u><em> Three countries that have most of the world’s natural gas reserves</em></u>

  1. Russia
  2. Iran
  3. Qatar

<em>Major advantages of using conventional natural gas as an energy resource:</em>

  • It is less expensive when compared to other fossil fuels.
  • It is safer and easier to store when compared to other fossil fuels

<em>Major disadvantages of using conventional natural gas as an energy resource:</em>

  • It costs more to recover the remaining natural gas because of flow, access, etc.
  • It is not a renewable source.
  • it is a combustible material, It must be handled with care.
  • It does not contribute to greenhouse gases.

Three sources of unconventional natural gas :

  1. <em>Tight Gas</em>
  2. <em>Shale Gas</em>
  3. <em>Coalbed Methane</em>

<u>Major problems related to the use of </u><u>Tight Gas</u>

  • When Hydrofluoric acid is used to release tight gas in reserves it potentially an issue simply because the substance is so dangerous. A spill or a leak could harm workers and pollute groundwater for uses.

<u>Major problems related to the use of </u><u>Shale Gas</u>

  • Risk of ground and surface water contamination.
  • Have impacts on air quality.

<u>Major problems related to the use of </u><u>Coalbed Methane</u>

  • The development of coalbed methane will result to soil disturbance from construction of wells, roads, and the associated pipeline and electric power rights-of-ways.
  • It has impact on wildlife.

2. How many nanoliters are in 2.87 x 10-10 gallons?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

1.09nL

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given that 1 gal equals 4 qt, 1 qt equals 0.9464 L and 1 L equals 1x10⁹ nL, the dimensional analysis turns out:

2.87x10^{-10}gal*\frac{4qt}{1gal} *\frac{0.9464L}{1qt}*\frac{1x10^9nL}{1L}\\  \\1.09nL

Best regards.

<u>Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis
  • Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

103.4 g H₂S (Sulfuric Acid)

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of S - 32.07 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂S - 2(1.01) + 32.07 = 34.09 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. Set up:                              \displaystyle 103.4 \ g \ H_2S(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2S}{34.09 \ g \ H_2S})(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2S}{1 \ mol \ H_2S})
  2. Multiply:                                                                                                            \displaystyle 1.82656 \cdot 10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2S

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 4 sig figs.</em>

1.82656 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂S ≈ 1.827 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂S
