Answer:

They help stablize the strucure of an atom.

Explanation:

Take into consider isotopes where there are more or less than the ideal amount of neurtrons. These isotopes are radioactive and unstable to the point hey are used as atomic bombs. So with the proper amount of nuetrons it helps the atom maintain structure and not degrade

Answer: they have an important role to keep the atom stable

Molecule contains carbon, hydrogen and sulfur atoms. When a sample of 0.535g of this compound is burnt in oxygen, 1.119 g of CO2
OLga [1]

Answer:

The empirical formula is, C4H4S

Explanation:

Number of moles of carbon = 1.119 g/ 44g/mol = 0.025 moles

Mass of Carbon= 0.025 moles × 12 g/ mole = 0.3 g

Number of moles of hydrogen = 0.229/18g/mol × 2 = 0.025 moles

Mass of hydrogen = 0.025 moles × 1 = 0.025 g

Number of moles of sulphur = 0.407g/ 64 g/mol = 0.0064 moles

Mass of sulphur= 0.0064 moles ×32 = 0.2 g

Now we obtain the mole ratios by dividing through by the lowest ratio.

C- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, H- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, S- 0.0064 moles/0.0064 moles

C4H4S

A scientist measures out equal volumes and concentrations of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions. When mixed, these
olasank [31]

Answer:

Neutral solution is formed.

Explanation:

When the hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide which is a strong base are combined together, it produces sodium chloride which is a salt and water. This solution is known as Neutral solution because the solution do not have the characteristics or properties of either an acid or a base. If the concentration of one of the reactant is higher as compared to another reactant so the product has the characteristics of that reactant.

Which of the following alcohols will give a positive chromic acid test?
Sindrei [870]
The answer is both B and C

positive chromic acid test is indicated by disappearance of orange colour from chromic ions and appearance of blue-green color from Chromium (iii) ion (reduction of chromium ion from CrO4 - to Cr3+)

positive chromic test indicated functional groups that can be oxidized.

cyclohexanol can be oxidized to become cyclohexanone

and pentan-3-ol can be oxidized to become pentan-3-one

hence both B and C will show positive chromic acid test

A) tert butanol although contains alcohol functional group, cannot be further oxidized as it is a tertiary alcohol

What's meant by the term enantiotropy?​
Mila [183]

Answer:

the relation of two different forms of the same substance (such as two allotropic forms of tin) that have a definite transition point and can therefore change reversibly each into the other — compare monotropy.
