How are the atomic number and the number of protons related to each other? how do the number of protons, number of neutrons, and

the mass number relate to each other? what is the one thing that determines the identity of an atom (that is, whether it is an oxygen atom or a carbon atom, etc.)?

The atomic number (Z) uniquely identifies a chemical element. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.

The atomic number, Z, should not be confused with the mass number, A, which is the number of nucleons, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

In this video Kristine Born explains this two concepts in more detail.

Hydrogen reacts with 0.771 g of carbon to form 0.90 g of a compound. What is the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound
morpeh [17]
Answer: 14.3%

Explanation: In order to find the mass percent of hydrogen in this compound, you must determine how many grams of hydrogen you'd get in 100 g of compound. 

In your case, you know that an unknown mass of hydrogen reacts with 0.771 g of carbon to form 0.90 g of hydrocarbon, which is a compound that contains only carbon and hydrogen. 

Use the total mass of the hydrocarbon to determine how many grams of hydrogen reacted with the carbon.

Now, if 0.90 g of this compound contain 0.129 g of hydrogen, it follows that 100 g of this compound will contain.

So, if 100 g of this compound contain 14.33 g of hydrogen, it follows that the mass percent of hydrogen is 14.3%

What is the vapor pressure (in mm Hg) of a solution of 17.5 g of glucose (C6H12O6) in 82.0 g of methanol (CH3OH) at 27∘C? The va
vichka [17]

Answer:

134.8 mmHg is the vapor pressure for solution

Explanation:

We must apply the colligative property of lowering vapor pressure, which formula is: P° - P' = P° . Xm

P° → Vapor pressure of pure solvent

P' → Vapor pressure of solution

Xm → Mole fraction for solute

Let's determine the moles of solute and solvent

17.5 g . 1 mol/180 g = 0.0972 moles

82 g . 1mol / 32 g = 2.56 moles

Total moles → moles of solute + moles of solvent → 2.56 + 0.0972 = 2.6572 moles

Xm → moles of solute / total moles = 0.0972 / 2.6572 = 0.0365

We replace the data in the formula

140 mmHg - P' = 140 mmHg . 0.0365

P' = - (140 mmHg . 0.0365 - 140mmHg)

P' = 134.8 mmHg
