Answer:

298.15 K.

Explanation:

Room temperature is generally taken to be 25 °C (around 77 °F). 0 °C is equivalent to 273.15 K, so we add 273.15 to 25 to find that room temperature is around 298.15 K

In general, what is the effect of increased temperature on the solubility of a gas?

Alecsey [184]

The physical explanation is that increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules. Hence, their random motion breaks more intermolecular bonds and the gas is less dissolved in the solvent. In contrast, solid solutes in water have increased solubility with increased temperatures.

Write the isotopic symbol for the following (show your work) a) An isotope of iodine whose atoms have 78 neutrons b) An isotope

morpeh [17]

Answer:

For a: The isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b: The isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c: The isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$

Explanation:

The isotopic representation of an atom is: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

For a:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 78

Atomic number of iodine = 53 = Number of protons

Mass number = 53 + 78 = 131

Thus, the isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 82

Atomic number of cesium = 55 = Number of protons

Mass number = 55 + 82 = 137

Thus, the isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 52

Atomic number of strontium = 38 = Number of protons

Mass number = 38 + 52 = 90

Thus, the isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$
