Which statement correctly compares the masses of subatomic particles in an atom such as carbon?

Chemistry
1 answer:
iogann1982 [59]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C- A proton has about the same mass as a neutron .

Explanation:

In an atom such as a carbon atom, the masses of the proton and neutrons are the same.

The mass of the electrons is very negligible.

  • Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom
  • Neutrons do not carry any charges
  • Both protons and neutrons have similar masses.
  • They contribute the bulk of the mass of the atom.
  • The electrons carry negative charges and they have negligible masses.

The mass of protons and neutrons are similar.

Why is a 9-v transistor battery used as the source of electrical power for electrolysis rather than the power supply that plugs
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The 9-v transistor battery is a direct current source, while the power supply from the wall socket is an alternating current source.

Explanation:

A direct current (DC) is one that flows continuously without any minimum and maximum values. This is majorly obtained from generators, batteries or cells etc.

An alternating current (AC) is a type that flows in a sinusoidal manner, having minimum and maximum value with respect to its flowing frequency. An example is the one obtained from the wall electrical source , generators etc.

An alternating current is not mainly used for electrolysis because of its nature. It would cause a switch of the electrodes in every cycle. Therefore, a direct current source is used.

The 9-v transistor battery is a direct current source, while the power supply from the wall is an alternating current source.

B. If the initial pressure of gas inside the balloon was 1.65 atm, what is the new pressure?
Orlov [11]

Question 1 :

V1/T1 = V2/T2

3.0L/273K = V2/373K

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

3.0L x 373K = 273K x V2

1119 = 273V2

Divide both sides by 273

1119/273 = 273V2/273

4.10L = V2

The new volume is 4.10 liters

Question 2 :

P1/T1 = P2 /T2

P1 = 880 kPA= 880 *10^3 Pa

T1 = 250 K

T2 = 303 K

P2 =?

Substituting for P2

P2 = P1 T2/ T1

P2 = 880 kPa * 303 / 250

P2 = 266,640 kPa/ 250

P2 = 1066.56 kPa.

The new pressure of the gas is 1066.56 kPa

Question 3 :

Given that:

Volume of gas V = 4.80L

(since 1 liter = 1dm3

4.80L = 4.80dm3)

Temperature T = 62°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(62°C + 273 = 335K)

Pressure P = 2.9 atm

Number of moles of gas N = ?

Apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

2.9atm x 4.8dm3 = n x (0.0082 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 335K)

13.92 atm dm3 = nx 2.747 atm dm3 mol-1

n = 13.92/2.747

n = 5.08 moles

There are 5.08 moles of gas contained in the sample

Question 4 :

Volume of gas V = 3.47L

(since 1 liter = 1dm3

3.47L = 3.47dm3)

Temperature T = 85.0°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(85.0°C + 273 = 358K)

Pressure P = ?

Number of moles of gas N = 0.100 mole

Apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

p x 3.47dm3 = 0.10 x (0.0082 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 358K)

p x 3.47dm3 = 0.29 atm dm3

p = (0.29 atm dm3 / 3.47 dm3)

p = 0.085 atm

If 1 atm = 760 mm Hg

0.085atm = 0.085 x 760

= 64.6 mm Hg

The pressure of the gas is 64.6 mm hg

A weak monoprotic acid is titrated with 0.100 MNaOH. It requires 50.0 mL of the NaOH solution to reach the equivalence point. Af
larisa86 [58]

Explanation:

The given reaction is as follows.

        HA(aq) + NaOH (aq) \rightleftharpoons NaA(aq) + H_{2}O(l)

Hence, number of moles of NaOH are as follows.

        n = 0.05 L \times 0.1 M

           = 0.005 mol

After the addition of 25 ml of base, the pH of a solution is 3.62. Hence, moles of NaOH is 25 ml base are as follows.

             n = 0.025 L \times 0.1 M

                = 0.0025 mol

According to ICE table,

         HA(aq) + NaOH (aq) \rightleftharpoons NaA(aq) + H_{2}O(l)

Initial:     0.005 mol   0.0025 mol              0                  0

Change: -0.0025 mol  -0.0025 mol        +0.0025 mol

Equibm:   0.0025 mol    0                         0.0025 mol

Hence, concentrations of HA and NaA are calculated as follows.

          [HA] = \frac{0.0025 mol}{V}

        [NaA] = \frac{0.0025 mol}{V}

       [A^{-}] = [NaA] = \frac{0.0025 mol}{V}

Now, we will calculate the pK_{a} value as follows.

          pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{A^{-}}{HA}

       pK_{a} = pH - log \frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}

                  = 3.42 - log \frac{\frac{0.0025 mol}{V}}{\frac{0.0025}{V}}

                  = 3.42

Thus, we can conclude that pK_{a} of the weak acid is 3.42.

Nitroglycerin (c3h5n3o9) is a powerful explosive. its decomposition may be represented by 4c3h5n3o9 → 6n2 12co2 10h2o o2 this re
professor190 [17]
The balanced chemical reaction describing this decomposition is as follows:
<span>4c3h5n3o9 .............> 6N2 + 12CO2 +10H2O + O2

From the periodic table:
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of carbon = 12 grams
Therefore:
mass of </span><span>C3H5N3O9 = 3(12) + 5(1) + 3(14) + 9(16) = 227 grams
mass of O2 = 2(16) = 32 grams

From the balanced chemical equation:
4(227) = 908 grams of </span>C3H5N3O9 produce 32 grams of O2. Therefore, to know the amount of oxygen produced from 4.5*10^2 grams <span>C3H5N3O9, all we need to do is cross multiplication as follows:
amount of oxygen = (4.5*10^2*32) / (908) = 15.859 grams</span>
